Paperback. Series: Undergraduate Topics in Computer Science. Num Pages: 254 pages, 26 black & white illustrations, biography. BIC Classification: GPJ. Category: (P) Professional & Vocational. Dimension: 235 x 155. .
This book provides a practically-oriented introduction to high-level programming language implementation. It demystifies what goes on within a compiler and stimulates the reader's interest in compiler design, an essential aspect of computer science. Programming language analysis and translation techniques are used in many software application areas. A Practical Approach to Compiler Construction covers the fundamental principles of the subject in an accessible way. It presents the necessary background theory and shows how it can be applied to implement complete compilers. A step-by-step approach, based on a standard compiler structure is adopted, presenting up-to-date techniques and examples. Strategies ... Read more

I found this book easy to read, with relevant examples and a good set of references. For me, its most interesting feature is the strategy used to support a particular audience: people who need to process text but will not write production compilers. The material itself has been standard for 30 years. (Computing Reviews, August, 2017) ... Read more
