Course Description Document: Ranjeet Kr. Singh, Ms. Maneesha

This document provides information about the Compiler Design course offered in the even semester of 2019-20. The course is offered by the Computer Science and Engineering department and teaches basic compiler design techniques. It introduces the different phases of a compiler like lexical analysis, parsing, semantic analysis and code generation. The course objectives are to learn various grammars and practical exposure to compiler design phases. Upon completing the course, students will be able to analyze tokens, understand parsing techniques, semantic rules, symbol tables, code optimization and error handling in compilation. The curriculum is divided into 5 units covering these topics and evaluation involves mid-term, class tests, quizzes, lab performance and an end term exam.
