1.
LANGUAGES DESIGN
ISSUES
Why Study
Programming Languages?, A Short History of Programming Languages –
Development of Early Languages; Evolution of Software Architectures;
Application Domains, Role of Programming Languages – What makes a
Good Languages?; Language Paradigms; Language Standardization;
Internationalization, Programming Environments – Effects on Language
Design; Environment Frameworks; Job Control and Process Languages, C
Overview, Suggestions for Further Reading.
2.
IMPACT OF MACHINE
ARCHITECTURES
Virtual
Computers and Language Implementations, Hierarchies of Virtual
Machines, Binding and Binding Time, Java Overview.
3.
ELEMENTARY DATA TYPES
Data Objects;
Variables; and Constants, Data types, Declarations, Type Checking
and Type Conversion, Assignment and Initialization, Numerical Data
Types , Enumerations, Booleans, Characters, Character Strings,
Pointers and Programmer-Constructed Data Objects, Files and
Input-Output.
4.
ENCAPSULATION
Structured
Data Objects and Data Types, Specification of Data Structure Types,
Implementation of Data Structure Types, Declaration and Type
Checking for Data Structures, Vectors and Arrays, Records, Lists,
Sets, Executable Data Objects, Evolution of the Data Type Concept,
Information Hiding, Subprograms as Abstract Operations, Subprogram
Definition and Invocation, Subprogram Definitions as Data Objects.
5.
INHERITANCE
Abstract
Data Types Revisited, Derived Classes, Methods, Abstract Classes,
Smalltalk Overview, Objects and Messages, Abstraction Concepts,
Polymorphism.
6.
SEQUENCE CONTROL
Implicit and
Explicit Sequence Control, Sequencing with Arithmetic Expressions –
Tree-Structure Representation; Execution-Time Representation,
Sequence Control Between Statements – Basic Statements; Structured
Sequence Control; Prime Programs.
7.
SUBPROGRAM CONTROL
Simple

Declaration, Names and Referencing Environments, Static and Dynamic
Scope, Block Structure, Local Data and Local Referencing
Environments, Actual and Formal Parameters, Methods for Transmitting
Parameters, Transmission Semantics, Implementation of Parameter
Transmission.
