This course is an introduction to the theory of programming languages. We will look at how programming language syntax is specified, how a programming language's semantics can be described, and how a programming language can be implemented using an interpreter or a compiler. We will consider various types of programming languages, like imperative, applicative (i.e., functional), and object oriented languages. We will study ideas common to all programming languages, like variable scope, data types, control flow, and procedure abstraction.
