Course Objectives: The students will have basic understanding of some of the fundamental concepts that underlie programming language syntax and semantics through a comparative study of several languages and their features. The students will be aware of several new programming language features and paradigms to gain the ability to study general conceptual linguistic issues of designing new languages and compilers.

Teaching Methods and Techniques Used in the Course:
Lecture, reading, implementation, individual study

Learning Outcomes

The students who have succeeded in this course;
1. Define basic concepts and categories of programming languages
2. Identify formal methods of describing syntax, attribute grammars and dynamic semantics
3. Describe the concept of binding, type checking, type equivalence, scoping and referencing environments
4. Define features of primitive variables, character string, ordinal, array, associative array, record, union, pointer and reference data types
5. Define arithmetic, relational and boolean expressions, type conversions, assignment statements, selection and iterative statements and unconditional branching
6. Describe fundamentals of subprograms, design issues for subprograms, local referencing environments, parameter-passing methods, overloaded subprograms and design issues for functions
7. Define the concept of abstraction, describing data abstraction and desing issues for abstract data types
8. Defining design issues for object-oriented languages and describing support for object-oriented programming in various programming languages such as Smalltalk, C++, Java, C#, Ruby
9. Analyse mathematical functions, fundamentals of functional programming languages such as Lisp, Scheme, ML, Haskell and Describing predicate calculus and theorem proving, features of logic programming and the basic elements of Prolog
10. Define exception and event handling in various programming languages such as Ada, C++, Java.
