This module explores the role of preprocessors and transpilers in programming, focusing on how they transform code and enable cross-platform execution. Learners will gain insight into macro expansion, code generation, and the unique features of the Unicon language. The module provides practical knowledge on translating high-level code into executable formats.

This module explores the fundamentals of bytecode and virtual machines, guiding learners through the design of custom instruction sets and the implementation of interpreters that enable cross-platform code execution. It covers the relationship between bytecode and intermediate code, as well as the development of runtime systems for abstract machines.

This module explores the process of converting intermediate code into Jzero bytecode, comparing assembler and binary formats, and integrating a runtime system for program execution. Learners will gain hands-on understanding of bytecode generation and its role in program execution on custom interpreters.

This module explores the process of generating native x64 code from intermediate code, focusing on register allocation, assembler tools, and the translation of high-level constructs into machine-specific instructions. Learners will gain hands-on knowledge of optimizing compiler techniques and implementing code generation strategies.

This module explores the implementation of operators and built-in functions in programming languages, focusing on integrating them into runtime systems and enhancing language expressiveness. Learners will examine how these elements interact with control structures and how they can be implemented at both bytecode and native levels. The content provides practical insights into extending language capabilities for specific application domains.

This module explores the design, implementation, and impact of novel control structures in domain-specific languages. Learners will gain insights into how to introduce custom control structures, analyze their usability, and understand their role in enhancing language expressiveness and domain suitability.

This module explores the fundamentals of garbage collection in programming languages, including reference counting and mark-and-sweep techniques. Learners will analyze their strengths and limitations and understand how to implement effective memory management strategies.
