Lexical Analyzer Lexical Analyzer reads the source program character by character and returns the tokens of the source program. A token describes a pattern of characters having same meaning in the source program.(such as identifiers,operators,keywords,numbers, delimeters and so on) Ex: newval :oldval 12 => tokens: newval identifier = assignment operator oldval identifier + add operator 12 a number Puts information about identifiers into the symbol table. Regular expressions are used to describe tokens(lexical constructs). A (Deterministic)Finite State Automaton can be used in the implementation of a lexical analyzer. CS308 Compiler Theory 5

Syntax Analyzer A Syntax Analyzer creates the syntactic structure(generally a parse tree)of the given program. A syntax analyzer is also called as a parser. .A parse tree describes a syntactic structure. assgstmt identifier expression In a parse tree,all terminals are at leaves. newval expression expression All inner nodes are non-terminals in a context free grammar. identifier number oldval 12 CS308 Compiler Theory 6

Syntax Analyzer (CFG) The syntax of a language is specified by a context free grammar (CFG). The rules in a CFG are mostly recursive. A syntax analyzer checks whether a given program satisfies the rules implied by a CFG or not. If it satisfies,the syntax analyzer creates a parse tree for the given program. Ex:We use BNF(Backus Naur Form)to specify a CFG assgstmt -identifier :=expression expression -identifier expression -number expression -expression expression CS308 Compiler Theory 7

Syntax Analyzer versus Lexical Analyzer Which constructs of a program should be recognized by the lexical analyzer,and which ones by the syntax analyzer? Both of them do similar things;But the lexical analyzer deals with simple non-recursive constructs of the language. The syntax analyzer deals with recursive constructs of the language. The lexical analyzer simplifies the job of the syntax analyzer. The lexical analyzer recognizes the smallest meaningful units(tokens)in a source program. -The syntax analyzer works on the smallest meaningful units(tokens)in a source program to recognize meaningful structures in our programming language CS308 Compiler Theory 8

Parsing Techniques Depending on how the parse tree is created,there are different parsing techniques. These parsing techniques are categorized into two groups: Top-Down Parsing, Bottom-Up Parsing ● Top-Down Parsing: Construction of the parse tree starts at the root,and proceeds towards the leaves -Efficient top-down parsers can be easily constructed by hand. Recursive Predictive Parsing,Non-Recursive Predictive Parsing(LL Parsing). ·Bottom-Up Parsing: -Construction of the parse tree starts at the leaves,and proceeds towards the root. -Normally efficient bottom-up parsers are created with the help of some software tools. Bottom-up parsing is also known as shift-reduce parsing. Operator-Precedence Parsing-simple,restrictive,easy to implement LR Parsing-much general form of shift-reduce parsing,LR,SLR,LALR CS308 Compiler Theory 9

Semantic Analyzer A semantic analyzer checks the source program for semantic errors and collects the type information for the code generation. Type-checking is an important part of semantic analyzer. 。 Normally semantic information cannot be represented by a context-free language used in syntax analyzers. Context-free grammars used in the syntax analysis are integrated with attributes (semantic rules) the result is a syntax-directed translation, -Attribute grammars ·EX: newval :oldval 12 The type of the identifier newval must match with type of the expression (oldval+12) CS308 Compiler Theory 10
