PPL Syllabus Jntuk

This document outlines the units of study for a Principles of Programming Languages course, including preliminary concepts of programming languages, syntax and semantics, data types, expressions and statements, subprograms and blocks, abstract data types, concurrency, exception handling, logic programming languages, and functional programming languages. Key topics covered include different programming paradigms, language design criteria, formal methods for describing syntax, primitive and user-defined data types, control structures, parameter passing methods, object-oriented programming, threads, exceptions, Prolog, Lisp, ML, and Haskell. References for further reading on programming language concepts are also provided.
