\section*{Coursework 2 (Strand 1)}

\noindent This coursework is worth 5\% and is due on 6

November at 16:00. You are asked to implement the Sulzmann \&

Lu tokeniser for the WHILE language. You can do the

implementation in any programming language you like, but you

need to submit the source code with which you answered the

questions, otherwise a mark of 0\% will be awarded. However,

the coursework will \emph{only} be judged according to the

answers. You can submit your answers in a txt-file or as pdf.

\subsection*{Disclaimer}

It should be understood that the work you submit represents

your own effort. You have not copied from anyone else. An

exception is the Scala code from KEATS and the code I showed

during the lectures, which you can both use. You can also use

your own code from the CW~1.

\subsection*{Question 1 (marked with 1\%)}

To implement a tokeniser for the WHILE language, you first

need to design the appropriate regular expressions for the

following eight syntactic entities:

\begin{enumerate}

\item keywords are

\begin{quote}

\texttt{while}, 

\texttt{if}, 

\texttt{then}, 

\texttt{else}, 

\texttt{do}, 

\texttt{for}, 

\texttt{to}, 

\texttt{true}, 

\texttt{false}, 

\texttt{read}, 

\texttt{write},

\texttt{skip}

\end{quote} 

\item operators are

\begin{quote}

\texttt{+}, 

\texttt{-}, 

\texttt{*}, 

\texttt{\%},

\texttt{/},

\texttt{==}, 

\texttt{!=}, 

\texttt{>}, 

\texttt{<}, 

\texttt{:=},

\texttt{\&\&},

\texttt{||}

\end{quote} 

\item strings are enclosed by \texttt{"\ldots"} 

\item parentheses are \texttt{(}, \texttt{\{}, \texttt{)} and \texttt{\}}

\item there are semicolons \texttt{;}

\item whitespaces are either \texttt{" "} (one or more) or \texttt{$\backslash$n}

\item identifiers are letters followed by underscores \texttt{\_\!\_}, letters

or digits

\item numbers are \texttt{0}, \text{1}, \ldots

\end{enumerate}

\noindent

You can use the basic regular expressions 

\[

\varnothing, \epsilon, c, r_1 + r_2, r_1 \cdot r_2, r^*

\]

\noindent

but also the following extended regular expressions

\begin{center}

\begin{tabular}{ll}

$[c_1 c_2 \ldots c_n]$ & a range of characters\\

$r^+$ & one or more times $r$\\

$r^?$ & optional $r$\\

$r^{\{n\}}$ & n-times $r$\\

\end{tabular}

\end{center}

\noindent

\subsection*{Question 2 (marked with 3\%)}

Implement the Sulzmann \& Lu tokeniser from the lectures. For

this you need to implement the functions $nullable$ and $der$

$inj$. These functions need to be appropriately extended for

\begin{center}

\code{"read n;"}

\end{center} 

\noindent

and use your \pcode{env} function to give the token sequence.

\subsection*{Question 3 (marked with 1\%)}

Extend your tokenizer from Q2 to also simplify regular expressions

after each derivation step and rectify the computed values after each

injection. Use this tokenizer to tokenize the programs in

Figure~\ref{fib} and \ref{loop}. Give the tokens of these

programs where whitespaces are filtered out.
