Abstract : |
The FAST compiler is a backend for compilers of lazy functional languages. There are two versions of the compiler: one that takes a rather simple lazy functional language as input and a second that accepts a language similar to Miranda. On output the compiler produces a set of macro calls that are normally turned into a C program by one of the code generators that have been developed for FAST. Such a C program must be compiled by a C compiler and linked with the appropriate runtime library to form an executable. This document decsribes how to use the FAST compiler. Familiarity with functional languages and their implementation methods is required to make full use of this document. 1, |
