pretty good for 1 minute. how about a 5 minute version?

i've been browsing YouTube for half an hour trying to find a summary. couldn't find any. this one is excellent

One of the best super-short explanations of how Compiler works. To remember what I learned long time ago :-)

[colinkiama]

Wow, this is an awesome example. Thanks!

[chantara]

Thanks for the overview of a compiler.

[ImageineClassicWow]

Quite intersting and very simply explained. Thanks for the video!

[JohnDeHope]

Some of the terms used ("target language", "abstract syntax tree") would only be known by people who already know more than the video teaches. Maybe 5min would be better?

Great and demostrative example. Amazing

You explained very complex topic in a very easy way and in short video just outstanding thankyou so much sir.

The secret of language compiling, most of the processors are associate with a C++ compiler. Turning any computer language syntax to C++ and compiling it with the available C++ compiler, make it runable on the target system. So the trick is to design a code editor that translate source to create a copy in C++.The [Run] button launch C++ compiler with the C++ copy.

This is cool. Now I need to know how to code each one of these in a lot of detail and then TBGL will become real!

What about edge cases?  Does it have 100% parity? How would you begin to measure that? What was the most time consuming/ complex part of developing the compiler?

Thank you so much! I made sure to hit that like and subscribe

Amazing for 1 minute, the 5 minute version would be good, though

[marekkrakovsky]

And who first programmed
the tokens and how?

Actually.. it's 1:18 instead of 1 minute, but that doesn't matter!! xD
