COMP332: Programming Languages |
The study of programming languages is important because of the central role that programming of one form or another plays in computing. This unit has two aims:
• to provide students with a comprehensive view of the features of modern programming languages, and
• to introduce students to the implementation of these languages.
The two aims are pursued in parallel; the syntax and semantics of programming languages are discussed at the same time as the necessary implementation techniques. These lectures are supplemented by practical exercises in language implementation.
