Course Learning Outcomes
- Introduce process of compilation, components of a compiler
- Establish the relationship between the program written in high level language and its realization as a sequence of machine instructions
- Introduce the concepts of lexical analysis and parsing and their implementation strategies
- Enable the student to design and implement compilers for simple languages
- Enable the student to use compiler construction tools lex, yacc and LLVM
