Minimal++ Compiler

Minimal++ is a minimalistic programming language developed for the Compilers course of cs.uoi.gr. It includes some interesting features that few languages support such as nested functions. It also includes pass by value and by reference, recursive calls, functions and procedures and many more. On the other hand Mininal++ is not supporting basic programmer tools such as for-loops or strings.

Goal of the Project

I had to develop in Python language a fully functional compiler for Minimal++. Final language derived from compiler ready to assemble using MARS 4.5 MIPS Assembler and Runtime Simulator

The project was developed in 4 phases:

1. lexical and syntax analysis
2. intermediate code (and its equivalent in C)
3. semantic analysis and symbol table
4. Final code and report

File extensions

.min

Minimal++ files.

.int

Intermediate code files.

.c

Minimal++ code equivalent in C (doesn't support minimal++ programs with declared functions).

.asm

Final code in assembly MIPS.

To see examples of this files check tests folder.

Symbol table

Here is an example output of symbol table(in our case the terminal output for test3.min)

Python version

3.6.9

Run

python compiler.py *.min
