Writing a C Compiler, Part 1
A way to do this more directly and without dealing with any assembly syntax and at a deeper level is to compile down to an emulation of a straightforward machine (I really like MSP430 for this), preferably to an emulator you write.Having had the pleasure of writing a couple emulators and a couple compilers at this point: the emulator is easier than the compiler, by a lot. Relative to parsing and emitting code, emulating a straightforward architecture is easy.This is a great post!
