- c - How to write a very basic compiler - Software Engineering Stack . . .
Go with an existing educational language instead, and focus on learning about compilers The following two are specifically designed for classroom use in compiler courses and by extension are great for a hobby compiler project ChocoPy ChocoPy is a concise Python subset, which can be implemented in a time-frame reasonable for a hobby compiler
- programming languages - Why doesnt Python need a compiler? - Software . . .
The majority of modern high-performance language implementations combine both an interpreter and a compiler (or even several compilers) for maximum performance Actually, it is impossible to run any program without an interpreter After all, a compiler is just a program which translates a program from one language to another language
- testing - How come compilers are so reliable? - Software Engineering . . .
I've seen several compiler bugs, reported a few myself (specifically, in F#) That said, I think compiler bugs are rare because people who write compilers are generally very comfortable with the rigorous concepts of computer science that make them really conscious about the mathematical implications of code
- Compiler Warnings - Software Engineering Stack Exchange
The compiler has been written by total experts in the language If they are reporting that something is a bit wiffy (think code smell) then the code should be reviewed It is entirely possible to write code that compiles without errors and without warnings
- Why are there so few C compilers?
The question is based upon a false premise Analog Devices, armcc, Bruce's C Compiler, the Bare-C Cross Compiler, the Borland compiler, the clang compiler, the Cosmic C compiler, the CodeWarrior compiler, the dokto compiler, the Ericsson compiler, and I'm not even out of the first five letters of the alphabet yet
- compiler - Does an interpreter produce machine code? - Software . . .
A C compiler that transforms C to LLVM IR, an LLVM backend compiler that transforms LLVM IR to x86 machine code, and an x86 CPU that executes that code A C compiler that transforms C to LLVM IR, and an LLVM interpreter that executes LLVM IR A Java compiler that transforms Java to JVM bytecode, and a JRE with an interpreter that executes that
- compiler - How does Chrome V8 work? And why was JavaScript not JIT . . .
So when the compiler reaches x + y, instead of running lots of code that branches for many different types of x and y, the compiler quickly checks if we have strings again, and then executes just a few lines of machine code that specifically concatenate strings
- compiler - How can I implement an if statement in an interpreter . . .
Hardly anything that goes by the term JIT compiler stores the generated code in files The real distinction is that JIT compilers generate machine code to be executed by the CPU while the interpreters you seem to be talking about generate some sort of byte code that is then interpreted by a virtual machine interpreter
