APL presents a number of novel problems for a compiler writer: weak variable typing, run time changes in variable shape, and a host of primitive operations. Through the integration of several recently developed compiler construction techniques, such as data flow analysis, and a novel and space efficient demand driven or lazy evaluation approach to code generation, the author has been able to produce a true compiler for the language while still maintaining the felxibility and ease that are the hallmarks of APL.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Springer","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":45280664977559,"sku":"9780387966434","price":7277.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0666\/3471\/1191\/files\/9780387966434.webp?v=1769296963","url":"https:\/\/atlanticbooks.com\/products\/an-apl-compiler-9780387966434","provider":"Atlantic Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
