Cours Test Théorie des Langages Wafa MOUSSER

Language theory allows us to resolve problems related to the lexical and syntactic analysis phases in programming languages.

Formel language theory :

1. Develops mathematical concepts and techniques that are foundational to computer science.
2. Introduces the fundamental definitions and methods associated with artificial languages, typically programming languages
3. Involves parsing (recognizing) a valid combination of entities used to produce source codes before semantic analysis and compilation
4. Is a prerequisite to compliation
