Trauma of CSE third year - I

This post is written by a kgp CSE third year who has been tormented by the continual assignments. We have three labs, a week and nearly two submissions every week. The biggest reason behind our sleepless nights and paining eyes, fast heartbeat and all nightouts before the submission day (D- DAY) is Compiler construction.

Compiler for tiny-C.........believe ask any of us "TINY-C" seems to be behemoth by any standards. Do you know the fear of compiler is not new to CSE, so the most popular book of the course by Aho, Ullmann,... is called the DRAGON book all over the world. Whosoever made this contribution of nomenclature is sure to have undergone this agony, the course is no less frightening than a dragon. In fact, for us they have not limited themselves to just a dragon, in fact we are in no better place than dense african forests with OX, YACC, TIGER and ....hihihi . The true workload is 4-0-24 rather than 4-0-3.

The next weapon in their armour is signals and networks, in next post.
