⚙️ Compiler for COOL language

🤔 What's it?

Compiler for the COOL language, you can see its official documentation here. The COOL language is a static and strongly typed tool, with imperative syntax and influenced by the object-oriented design pattern. In this project a compiler is developed that transforms plain text code into executable MIPS code. To perform this transformation, the system is composed of 4 main modules that represent the 4 main phases of language theory (lexer, parser, semantic checking and code generation).
Principal Skills: Python Metaprogramming AST Visitor Pattern Sly MIPS

🤓 Motivation

This project was developed as part of a compilation course at the University of Havana. With the educational foundation of knowing the main aspects of a compiler or interpreter, tools that developers use on a daily basis.
