Introduction

The Compiler Design laboratory of the CSE – AIML Department provides students with practical experience in the development and implementation of compilers, which play a crucial role in translating high-level programming languages into machine-readable code. The laboratory focuses on the various phases of the compilation process, including lexical analysis, syntax analysis, semantic analysis, optimisation, and code generation. Through hands-on exercises and projects, students gain a comprehensive understanding of the algorithms, data structures, and techniques used in compiler construction. This lab equips students with the necessary skills to analyse and design efficient compilers and deepens their understanding of the theoretical foundations of programming languages and software development.

Objectives of the Laboratory

S. No. Objective
1 Introduce the major concept areas of language translation and compiler design.
2 To enrich the knowledge in various phases of a compiler and its use, code optimisation techniques, machine code generation, and use of symbol table.
3 To extend the knowledge of parsers by parsing LL parser and LR parser.
4 To provide practical programming skills necessary for constructing a compiler.
