Unveiling Compiler Secrets from Source to Execution. Book DescriptionCompilers are the backbone of modern computing, enabling programming languages to power everything from web applications to high-performance systems. Kickstart Compiler Design Fundamentals is the perfect starting point for anyone eager to explore the world of compiler construction. This book takes a structured, beginner-friendly approach to demystifying core topics such as lexical analysis, syntax parsing, semantic analysis, and code optimization. The chapters follow a progressive learning path, beginning with the basics of function calls, memory management, and instruction selection. As you advance, you'll dive into machine-independent optimizations, register allocation, instruction-level parallelism, and data flow analysis. You'll also explore loop transformations, peephole optimization, and cutting-edge compiler techniques used in real-world frameworks like LLVM and GCC. Each concept is reinforced with hands-on exercises, practical examples, and real-world applications. Table of Contents1. Introduction to Compilers 2. Lexical Analysis and Regular Expressions3.
