COS 360 - Programming Language Concepts

Institution:

University of Maine at Farmington

Subject:

Description:

An examination of issues involved in the design and implementation of high-level computer languages. Starting from a working interpreter for a very simple programming language, we first consider general issues such as syntax grammars, semantic descriptions, and the mechanisms used in translating a high-level language into an equivalent lower-level executable form. Following that we gradually introduce new language features, each requiring further modifications to our language's syntax and interpreter, which provides a basis for studying more advanced programming language features.
