on definition of soundness and completeness
|
| |
In the presentation of various program analysis techniques, we often read claims of "soundness" and "completeness" properties of those techniques. I often find the definitions I expected for these two concepts at odds with whatever is put down in the paper I am reading. (I can give some fresh examples from latest conference like pldi).... more »

Simple parsing problem
|
| |
This should be easy practice for the experts .. I am writing a bison grammar to parse strings coming from various kinds of attached devices. One of the strings is of the form: $FOO,field1,field2, 0,a,1,b,3,c, ....<CRLF> where there are a variable number of paired fields of the form <number> COMMA <text> COMMA. The comma is always a delimiter here,... more »

How are string literals represented internally by compilers? I assume that it's probably null-terminated character string for... more »

old 1981 DDJ article on compilers
|
| |
Der all, I am looking for a copy of: W. A. Gale, "Write your own compiler", Dr. Dobb's Journal, August, 1981, pp. 6-14; listings pp. 22-39. The article is about META4, a descendant of META-II by Schorre. I am not able to locate this article in a library, because they usually don't archive Dr. Dobbs many years. If you have a copy, please contact me at:... more »
