3 cr
This course familiarizes the student with how computer languages are implemented. They write a small compiler for a simplified programming language using compiler construction tools such as lexical analyzer generators and parser generators as well as creating some hand-built components. Although some theory is presented, emphasis is on implementation. Programming is done in C or Java.
