Compiler Design 2023

The document discusses compiler design and provides details about: 1) The working of a compiler involves several components like lexical analysis, syntax analysis, semantic analysis, intermediate code generation, code optimization, and code generation. 2) Lexical analysis breaks down source code into tokens. Syntax analysis checks syntax correctness and creates an abstract syntax tree. Semantic analysis checks meaning and correctness. 3) Parsing techniques like top-down and bottom-up are used in syntax analysis, and their comparison can help choose the right technique for a language.

INTRODUCTION TO COMPILER DESIGN

• Compiler design is the process of creating software that can translate high-level programming
languages into machine code that can be executed by a computer.
• Finite Automata and Context Free Grammar are fundamental concepts in compiler design.
• The working of a compiler involves several components, including Lexical Analyzer, Syntax
Analyzer, Semantic Analyzer, Intermediate Code Generation, Code Optimization, and Code
Generation.
• Various parsing techniques, code generation and optimization techniques, and tools and techniques
are used for designing a compiler.
• In this presentation, we will examine each of these concepts in detail.
WORKING OF A COMPILER

• The Lexical Analyzer, also known as a Scanner, breaks down the source code into tokens, which are meaningful units of
code.
• The Syntax Analyzer, also known as a Parser, uses Context-Free Grammar to check the syntactical correctness of the
source code and creates an Abstract Syntax Tree (AST).
• The Semantic Analyzer checks the meaning of the source code using the AST and ensures that it is semantically correct.
• Intermediate Code Generation generates an intermediate representation of the source code that is independent of the
target machine.
• Code Optimization improves the performance of the generated code by reducing the number of instructions or the time
complexity.
• Code Generation translates the intermediate code into target machine code that can be executed by the computer.
PHASES OF A COMPILER:
PARSING TECHNIQUES AND COMPARISON

• Parsing is the process of analyzing the syntax of the source code and constructing an Abstract Syntax
Tree.
• Top-Down Parsing is a recursive descent parsing technique that starts at the root of the tree and works its
way down to the leaves.
• Bottom-Up Parsing is a shift-reduce parsing technique that starts at the leaves of the tree and works its
way up to the root.
• Comparison of parsing techniques based on factors such as time complexity and ease of implementation
can help to choose the appropriate parsing technique for a particular programming language.
• Popular programming languages like C, C++, and Java use different parsing techniques.
