Description
Writing an Interpreter in Object Pascal Part 1: Lexical and Basic Syntax Analysis by Herbert Sauro Learn to create a fully functional interactive interpreter in Object Pascal, starting with the basics. This first part of the series covers essential topics such as lexical analysis, syntax analysis, recursive descent, grammar, and EBNF, providing a solid foundation for further study. You'll build a REPL and develop a simple calculator to illustrate key concepts, all while working with fully functional code examples. The book assumes no prior knowledge of compilers or interpreters, making it an ideal introduction for hobbyists and mid-level developers. With a standard installation of Free Pascal or Delphi, you can start learning without relying on third-party tools. By the end of this part of the series, you'll have a solid understanding of lexical analysis and parsing, setting you up for further exploration in compiler design.
