Introduction to Lex and Yacc: Compiler Design Essentials

Lex and Yacc are essential tools in compiler design. Lex serves as a lexical analyzer, converting source code to tokens, while Yacc is a parser generator that implements parsing based on BNF grammars. Through these tools, strings are processed, and code is generated for efficient compilation. This i
