Dragon Book tiger Book whale Book gnawing? Try the monkey book with Douban score of 9.5

According to legend , There are three holy books in the field of compilation principles ：

Long Shu Is for Compilers: Principles, Techniques, and Tools;

Tiger book Is for Modern Compiler Implementation in C;

Whale book Is for Advanced Compiler Design and Implementation.

The big three are well-known , But it is not easy to understand the secret .

King Turing often receives inquiries from readers ： Is there any Some lightweight compilation principles tutorial , It's very practical That kind of ？

Now we can finally give the answer ！ Before introducing this set of books , Let's take a look at this comment given by the reader ：

“ If I'm stuck on an island , Must build a programming language , So this is the only book I want to take with me .”

The English version of this set of books is highly recognizable , And get... On bean curd  9.5  and  9.4  The high score .

author Thorsten Ball Tell King Turing , all the time , Many compiler enthusiasts from China asked him when the Chinese version would be released . Now? , He can finally share the good news ！

Author's brief introduction

Currently living in Germany , He has been active in major European technical conferences for a long time .

How to read this set of books

Colorful monkey book —— use Go Language self-made interpreter

Starting from scratch , No third-party packages , From nothing to handwriting C Language ——Monkey Language .

You are going to Monkey Implement lexical analyzer 、 parsers 、 Abstract syntax trees and macro systems .

You wrote it. Monkey Language You can bind values and names ：

let age = 1;

let name = "Monkey";

let result = 10 * (20 / 2);

You can also bind an array to a name ：

let myArray = [1, 2, 3, 4, 5];

You can also bind functions and names ：

let add = fn(a, b) { return a + b; };

Support calling functions ：

add(1, 2);

Of course , In the process of reading , You will also teach Monkey More skills ！

Golden Monkey book —— use Go Language self-made compiler

help Monkey evolution , Implement bytecode compiler and virtual machine , Improve its performance to that of the interpreter 3 times .

You must read the colorful monkey book first , Read the golden monkey book again ？

There is an advanced relationship between the two books . Although you can read any book you like , but The best reading order is still to read the colorful monkey book first , Read the golden monkey book again .

Who does this set of books suit

Why Go Language ？

Go Language is easy to read and understand . Even for beginners , The code in this set of books is also easy to understand .

Besides ,Go Language provides Excellent standard libraries and tools . Just use these tools , No third-party libraries , You can write interpreters and compilers .

Colored eggs ： More than Go Language ！

Since the English version was published , Many readers around the world have achieved more in other languages based on the contents of the book Monkey：Python、Java、Elixir、Rust、C、C++、TypeScript、C#、Dart、Haskell、V、PHP、Kotlin、Scala、Lua、Julia……

Come and join the challenge ！ Penetrate the underlying logic of the programming language , Use your favorite language to achieve Monkey.

Good reviews in the industry

Compiler theory is the most useful college course I have ever taken . Learning for “ Toy language ” Write lexical analyzer and runtime , Help to uncover the mystery of computer science . I recommend that all unfamiliar with lexical analyzers 、 Software development engineers of parsers and evaluators read this set of books .

Compilers and language development are high threshold areas . As a practitioner , We often encounter the problem of training new people but not getting started quickly . This set of books solves this problem well , While lowering the threshold , Without losing richness , It comprehensively shows the elements of developing compilers and programming languages , So I recommend this set of books to all interested readers .

A few years ago SICP When , I learned how to write an interpreter . The process of learning compiling principles in books is very boring . This set of books allows us to study theory at the same time , Practice at the same time . We can see , How to get rid of the boring process of learning theory by personally implementing the interpreter and compiler .

If you are familiar with explanatory language , At the same time Go Language lover , So this set of books is written for you . Use Go Language implements an interpreter from zero / compiler , Not only do you understand how they work , And you're right Go Language will also have a deeper understanding . If you can follow the contents of the book to implement an interpreter / compiler , Then your technology will have a great leap .

One of the three great romances of programmers is homemade programming languages . Thanks to the Go The simplicity of its own grammar and the balance in Engineering , This set of books is written in concise and direct code , Step by step, it is revealed to the readers that it is not unattainable to make a programming language . For the readers who want to make their own programming language and don't want to bite the compiling principle , I recommend this set of books .

—— Mengzhuo （mengzhuo）  Go Members of the project

This is a good set of books , I was studying Go I had the honor of reading . Now? , It has finally been translated into Chinese . Self made interpreters and compilers , It's cool to hear it . The success of this set of books lies in , It is not from a commanding height , It takes us to complete the construction of the interpreter and compiler from scratch , It's very practical .

In software design , Developers often need to develop some highly abstract custom modules . These modules are likely to involve domain specific languages （DSL） Design and analysis of . If you are familiar with the various modules and operating principles of the compiler , You can easily design a suitable for your project DSL. There are many books about compilers on the market , These works are often large and comprehensive , But it's not easy to understand . The authors of this set of books have designed the contents very exquisitely , By getting from 0 To 1 Create a programming language to lead the reader through the core principles of interpreters and compilers . I Believe , It can give DSL Designers bring help .
