Computer Science | Grinnell College

CSC 312 is a proposed new course in Grinnell's computer science curriculum. It will be a two-credit course that replaces our existing CSC 302, Programming Languages, and CSC 362, Compilers.

Because our multi-paradigm introductory sequence covers many of the core topics in a traditional programming languages course, the new CSC 312 will focus on the implementation of programming languages, primarily through interpretation. It will include some study of syntax (regular expressions and BNF-style grammars) and semantics. It will likely cover the first half of Friedman and Wand's Essentials of Programming Languages.
