Compilers: Principles and Practice by Pearson

Project: Compiler for a MiniC 385

the code generator and the assembly language built-in library. We shall demonstrate the use of gdb

by a small example.

12.10.1 An Example miniC Program

A small example program is as follows:

float: a,b

a = 1.1111

b = -2.0

printr(a * b)

end

This program, though simple, checks several aspects of miniC:

c

Type declaration and type setting of the variables.

c

Ability to handle variable list in declarations.

c

Memory locations assignment to variables.

c

Detection and conversion of floating-point numbers (in contrast to integers).

c

Checking unary-minus operation.

c

Working of assignment statement.

c

Checking arithmetic expression ...
