Coco /R : Playing with how COMPILERS work!


COCO

Summary Coco/R reads an attributed EBNF grammar of a
language and translates it into a recursive descent parser and a
scanner for that language. Using Coco/R, compilers can be
generated that are as efficient as hand-coded and carefully
optimized production quality compilers. Almost as important as
efficiency is the simplicity and adequacy of the system.
Programmers are not willing to use a tool if it does not come in
handy to their work, if it uses an arcane notation or a bulk of
options and special cases. Coco/R puts simplicity and efficiency
over power.
