CSC362.01, Lab 1: Exploring Compilation

* Sam has an odd attitude towards labs: Primarily a chance for you to play with software (and, hopefully, learn something from doing so).
* But ATTENDANCE IS EXPECTED!
* I will usually start with a quick intro.
* Today: Work on documentation reading skills and sample assembly code.  (The "Paul Heider" method of learning compilers.)
* How to get the eBoard: Follow the links from the home page.
* How to get the lab: Go to the labs page, click on "Lab 1", follow the instructions.

Reflection: What did you learn?

Problem 1 (Stages)

* Assembly with -S (suffix is .s)
* Post-preprocessing with -E (suffix is .i)
* Object/machine code with -c (suffix is .o)
* Side note: -save-temps, you get all of 'em
 
Problem 2 (Sample C Program)

Problem 3 (C vs. Pascal)

Problem 4 (Internal Reps, Revisited)

* RTL
* A good URL (HTMLifying some random info page)
