Compilers
Compilers: Principles, Techniques, and Tools
2nd Edition · Alfred V. Aho, Monica S. Lam, Ravi Sethi, Jeffrey D. Ullman
A classic resource for understanding compiler design, language processing, and translation systems.
What You’ll Learn
A quick overview of the core skills and concepts covered in this book
- Lexical analysis, parsing, syntax-directed translation, and semantic analysis
- Intermediate representations, code generation, and optimization
- Compiler architecture and language-processing tools
- How programming languages are translated into executable behavior
Who This Book Is For
- Computer science students studying compilers or programming languages
