Concepts of Programming Languages continues to be the market leader by providing readers with a wide-range in-depth discussion of programming language concepts.  By presenting design issues for various language constructs, examining the design choices for these constructs in some of the most common languages, and critically comparing the design alternatives, this book gives readers a solid foundation for understanding the fundamental concepts of programming languages.

Features:

• Contains new coverage on program proofs using axiomatic semantics.
• Additional material on parsing routine included in the discussion of recursive descent parsing.
• Coverage of advanced object-oriented topics and languages like C#, Java, JavaScript, Perl, PHP, XHTML, XSLT, and JSP.
• Discussion of functional programming, including the ML language.
• Historical boxes, and interviews with James Gosling, Larry Wall, Alan Cooper, Bjarne Stroustrup, and others that set the material into context.
• A companion website that includes lab projects, quizzes, and language references.

  For undergraduate students in Computer Science and Computer Programming courses.

   

  Now in its Ninth Edition, Concepts of Programming Languages introduces students to the main constructs of contemporary programming languages and provides the tools needed to critically evaluate existing and future programming languages. Readers gain a solid foundation for understanding the fundamental concepts of programming languages through the author's presentation of design issues for various language constructs, the examination of the design choices for these constructs in some of the most common languages, and critical comparison of the design alternatives. In addition, Sebesta strives to prepare the reader for the study of compiler design by providing an in-depth discussion of programming language structures, presenting a formal method of describing syntax, and introducing approaches to lexical and syntactic analysis.
