Project Description for Language Compiler
Understand the core functionalities of a language compiler through a project scenario involving modular code optimizations. Learn to handle comment detection, compute expressions, unroll loops, and apply various performance improvements to compiler design. This lesson prepares you to tackle related coding interview problems.
We'll cover the following...
Introduction
A language compiler is a software used to convert the source code of a language into machine code, which is then executed by the computer’s processor. A compiler can have various components, including a scanner, lexical analyzer, semantic analyzer, code generations, etc., which might be handled by different modules of the program. The compilers are both language-specific and specific to the underlying hardware processor.
The scenarios and problems discussed in this chapter ...
