Explore the essential components of a C++ compiler and develop practical solutions for tasks like detecting comments, computing expressions, unrolling loops, and optimizing code. This lesson helps you understand how to break down compiler functionalities relevant to coding interviews.

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 ...
