Petit programming language and compiler
Abstract
Petit is an educational programming language for learning compilers. Students embark on the journey of learning compilers through a series of six tutorials, progressing from topics like lexical analysis and syntactic analysis to semantic analysis and code generation. The initial tutorials in this series cover the practical applications of the lex and yacc tools, while the concluding tutorial focuses on generating LLVM intermediate representation.
