    3 Lexical Rules - Definition Create words Concatenate symbols until you found a whitespace, an operator, or a delimiter
  4. Javier Gonzalez-Sanchez | CSE 240 (online) | Fall 2017 |

    4 Lexical Rules - Algorithm do { String word = ""; char c = getNextCharacter(); if (c is not an operator nor a delimiter nor a whitespace nor EndOfLine) word = word + c; } else { if (word is a literal or word is a keyword or word is an identifier){ // This word is correct J } else { // Houston, we have a lexical error L } word = ""; } } while (fileHasMoreCharacters());

    5 Lexical Rules - Example int x = ; 5 float 3y = "hello; String@z="9.5”;intx=cse240;if(x> 14) while (5 == 5) if (int a) a = 1; x = x; for ( ; ; );y = 13.45.0;int me =99999000001111222000000111111222223 443483045830948;while { x != 9} ();int {x} = 10;

    6 Lexical Rules - Example int x = ; 5 float 3y = "hello; String@z = "9.5"; intx = cse240; if ( x > 14) while (5 == 5) if (int a) a = 1; x = x; for ( ; ; ); y = 13.45.0; int me =99999000001111222000000111111222223 443483045830948; while { x != 9} (); int {x} = 10;

    7 Lexical Rules - Tokens • Identifiers. Names (programmer chosen) for something of interest (variables, functions, methods, classes, etc.) • Keywords. names reserved by the language designer: if, switch, for, int, float, char, while, etc. • Operators. +, *, <, >=, !, &&, ||, etc. • Delimiters. , ; ( ) { } • Literals. 5, 14.5, 'A', "Hello", • Comments. /* ... */, // ...

    8 Structure of a Programming Language Create sentences by combining words
  9. Javier Gonzalez-Sanchez | CSE 240 (online) | Fall 2017 |

    10 Syntactic Rules - Example sum4 = (a1 + a2) * (3b % 4*b)_ p4rd2 = ((a + a2) * (b3 % b4)) hi (c7 - c8); foo_bar = (a1 + a2 - b3 - b4); (a1 / a2) = (c3 - c4); if (z<4) } while ( 5 ) { if ( 6 ) { } }

  11. Javier Gonzalez-Sanchez | CSE 240 (online) | Fall 2017 |

    12 Structure of a Programming Language Review that the sentences are meaningful
  12. Javier Gonzalez-Sanchez | CSE 240 (online) | Fall 2017 |

    13 Semantic Rules 1. Declaration and Unicity. Review for uniqueness and that the variable has been declared before its usage. 2. Types. Review that the types of variables match the values assigned to them. 3. Array’s indexes. Review that the indexes are integers. 4. Conditions. Review that all expressions on the conditons return a boolean value. 5. Return type. Review that the value returned by a method match the type of the method. 6. Parameters. Review that the parameters in a method match in type and number with the declaration of the method.
  13. Javier Gonzalez-Sanchez | CSE 240 (online) | Fall 2017 |

    14 Semantic Rules 1. Declaration and Unicity. Review for uniqueness and that the variable has been declared before its usage. //Case 1: int i; char j; int m; void method(int n, char c) { int n; short l; i = j; i = m; } //Case 2: int i, j; void method() { int i = 5; int j = i + i; int i = i + i; }

    15 Semantic Rules 1. Declaration and Unicity. Review for uniqueness and that the variable has been declared before its usage. 2. Types. Review that the types of variables match the values assigned to them. 3. Array’s indexes. Review that the indexes are integers. 4. Conditions. Review that all expressions on the conditons return a boolean value. 5. Return type. Review that the value returned by a method match the type of the method. 6. Parameters. Review that the parameters in a method match in type and number with the declaration of the method.

    16 Semantic Rules 2. Types. Review that the types of variables match the values assigned to them. //Case 3: int x = "hello"; char c = false; boolean foo = c;

    17 Semantic Rules 1. Declaration and Unicity. Review for uniqueness and that the variable has been declared before its usage. 2. Types. Review that the types of variables match the values assigned to them. 3. Array’s indexes. Review that the indexes are integers. 4. Conditions. Review that all expressions on the conditons return a boolean value. 5. Return type. Review that the value returned by a method match the type of the method. 6. Parameters. Review that the parameters in a method match in type and number with the declaration of the method.
