How to design a programming language

compiler implementation There DO exist some great compiler frontend, backend and library, so reinvent the wheel is lame...And it is even easier to use some VM as the running platform like JVM, CLI.

It is HELL when debuging and testing compiler

we'd rather be conservatism than aggrasive

Standard Library

Data Sturucture

Dictionary

Array

Set

Code Generation

Platform Dependent Optimization

Intermediate Code Generation change tree-style to linear-style if you use LLVM, JVM as backend, your job is done here

3-address

static single assignment form

Optimization

Platform Independent

copy propagation

common subexpression elimination

Especially for Functional language

Type Checking and Inferencing for static language

several inference algorithm

Hindley-Milner
