CP4154 PRINCIPLES OF PROGRAMMING LANGUAGES LTP C

3 00 3
COURSE OBJECTIVES:
 To understand and describe syntax and semantics of programming languages
 To understand data, data types, and basic statements
 To understand call-return architecture and ways of implementing them
 To understand object-orientation, concurrency, and event handling in
 programming languages
 To develop programs in non-procedural programming paradigms
UNIT I SYNTAX AND SEMANTICS 9
Evolution of programming languages – describing syntax – context – free grammars
–attribute grammars – describing semantics – lexical analysis – parsing – recursive-
descent – bottom- up parsing

UNIT II DATA, DATA TYPES, AND BASIC STATEMENTS 9


Names – variables – binding – type checking – scope – scope rules – lifetime and
garbage collection –primitive data types–strings–array types– associative arrays–
record types– union types – pointers and references – Arithmetic expressions –
overloaded operators – type conversions – relational and boolean expressions –
assignment statements – mixed- mode assignments – control structures – selection –
iterations – branching – guarded statements

UNIT III SUBPROGRAMS AND IMPLEMENTATIONS 9


Subprograms – design issues – local referencing – parameter passing – overloaded
methods – generic methods – design issues for functions – semantics of call and
return – implementing simple subprograms – stack and dynamic local variables –
nested subprograms – blocks – dynamic scoping

UNIT IV OBJECT-ORIENTATION, CONCURRENCY, AND EVENT 9


HANDLING
Object-orientation – design issues for OOP languages – implementation of object-
oriented constructs – concurrency – semaphores – monitors – message passing –
threads – statement level concurrency – exception handling – event handling

UNIT V FUNCTIONAL AND LOGIC PROGRAMMING LANGUAGES 9


Introduction to lambda calculus – fundamentals of functional programming
languages – Programming with Scheme – Programming with ML – Introduction to
logic and logic programming – Programming with Prolog – multi-paradigm languages
TOTAL : 45 PERIODS
COURSE OUTCOMES:
CO1: Describe syntax and semantics of programming languages
CO2: Explain data, data types, and basic statements of programming languages
CO3: Design and implement subprogram constructs
CO4: Apply object-oriented, concurrency, and event handling programming
constructs CO5: Develop programs in Scheme, ML, and Prolog and Understand
and adopt new programming language
