C-Tools Third Lecture: 12th June 2014

d.white@imperial.ac.uk

I've just finished giving the third and final lecture of my 3 first year lectures on C Tools, building a toolbox of useful tools, and the craft skills to use them effectively, in order to make C programming easier. This final lecture covers the following single topic: Parser and Lexer Generator tools: yacc and lex.

Here are the lecture materials (slides and associated examples - of which there are many):

• Here are the full size lecture notes (PDF), ie. with one slide per page. Also available in Postscript for more efficient printing.
• Here are the 4-up lecture notes (PDF), ie. with 4 slides per page. Also available in Postscript for more efficient printing.
• And here's the C Tools tarball, as a gzipped tar file:
  • Download this into your home directory,
  • Then extract the contents via: tar xzf c-tools-lecture3.tgz
  • This creates a directory called c-tools-lecture3
  • Explore the c-tools-lecture3 directory, I suggest you start with the top level README and Makefile.
