CST302 syllabus
The purpose of this course is to create awareness among students about the phases of a compiler and the techniques for designing a compiler. This course covers the fundamental concepts of different phases of compilation such as lexical analysis, syntax analysis, semantic analysis, intermediate code generation, code optimization and code generation. Students can apply this knowledge in design and development of compilers.
Prerequisite: Sound knowledge in Data Structures, Formal Languages & Automata Theory.
