Alpha-Language-Compiler-and-VM

Implementation of Alpha's compiler in 5 stages.

• Lexicographic analysis (yylex)
• Grammar and syntax construction (yacc - bison)
• Intermediate code and quad generation (library in c)
• Final code generation
• Construction of Alpha's virtual machine (AVM)

Usage:

        $ make {(empty)|out|avm_exec|clean}:
                - (empty)      : clean up, then build out and avm_exec
                - out          : alpha language compiler compilation recipe
                - avm_exec     : alpha language virtual machine executable compilation recipe
                - clean        : clean every executable and object

Compiles and returns a binary file at given location with .abc extension.

        $ ./out {file_path}

Runs the given file

        $ ./avm_exec {file_path}
