I wrote this publication on compiling within the overdue Nineteen Seventies. It used to be successful. I nonetheless meet
people who learnt approximately compiling from it. i am getting 3 or 4 requests a year

it is. I fixed the error that I knew approximately, replaced a truly few infelicities, and
otherwise attempted to alter as low as possible.

Since the process is recursive it’s trivially easy to translate structured statements like the conditional statement which might at first seem the hardest to translate. Imagine how straightforward it is to translate a PASCAL compound statement or an ALGOL 68 serial clause! 5 is that the code would work if it was given to the object machine to execute. 4 which really will generate accurate code. The object code produced by these procedures isn’t optimal by any means, but it’s relatively trivial to change the procedures to improve it.

2. Alter the way the tree is walked when a node has a particular general property (strategy). 3. Modify the tree before it is walked (optimise the tree). 4. Modify the code which was generated, after the tree walk has finished (optimise the code). 9: Tactics and strategy • arithmetic ‘+’ (result to be in register k) 1. generate code to calculate value of left operand in register k 2. if right operand is a name then generate ADD k,

else if right operand is a number then generate ADDn k, or ADD k, else (a) generate code to calculate value of right operand in register k+1; (b) generate ADDr k, k+1.

The object description phase inserts into the symbol table against each name a descriptor which gives information about the run-time object which is denoted by that name, determined by the declarations in which the name appears.
