LANGUAGE PROCESSORS

use of macro processor to produce more optimal assembly code

creation of more optional matrix

recognition of basic syntactic constructs through reductions

recognition of basic elements and creation of uniform symbols

to build a literal table and an identifier table

to recognize the major constructs of the language and to call the appropriate action routines that will generate the intermediate form or matrix for these constructs

to build a uniform symbol table

to parse the source program into the basic elements or tokens of the language

Literal table

Terminal table

Identifier table

Reductions

Interpreter generates an object program from the source program

Interpreter is a kind of translator

Interpreter analyses each source statement every time it is to be executed

All of these
