Programming language pragmatics / created by Michael L. Scott. - Fourth edition. - xxxii, 956 pages : illustrations ; 24 cm
Includes bibliographical references (pages 891-909) and index.
Introduction -- Programming language syntax -- Names, scopes, and bindings -- Semantic analysis -- Target machine architecture -- Control flow -- Type systems -- Composite types -- Subroutines and control abstraction -- Data abstraction and object orientation -- Functional languages -- Logic languages -- Concurrency -- Scripting languages -- Building a runnable program -- Run-time program management -- Code improvement.
The most comprehensive programming language textbook available today, Programming Language Pragmatics is distinguished and acclaimed for its integrated treatment of language design and language implementation. This emphasis on integration is supported by a central focus on programming language design, which together provide the reader with a solid foundation for understanding the most important issues driving software development today. The new fourth edition is updated with new material and numerous updates, including more material on interpretation; the expansion of the coverage of OCaml; new chapters devoted to Type Systems and Composite Types; reworking of the coverage of overloading, coercion, and polymorphism; and new examples featuring the ARM and x86 64-bit architectures."
