# C++ Compiler Project
This project aims to develop a fully functional compiler for the C++ programming language. Designed with comprehensive compiler features, this compiler is a work in progress, with the parsing phase already completed and tested.
## Project Status
**Current Progress:** Parsing stage has been completed and tested.
**Upcoming Development Stages:** Semantic analysis, code generation, and optimization phases.
---
## Features
The compiler is designed to support all essential features expected in a modern compiler, including:
1. **Lexical Analysis**
- Efficiently tokenizes input C++ code into meaningful lexemes.
2. **Parsing**
- Completed and fully functional, the parsing phase verifies syntax and builds an Abstract Syntax Tree (AST) for further processing.
3. **Semantic Analysis** *(Planned)*
- Will analyze code semantics to ensure type safety, correct variable use, and overall logical correctness.
4. **Intermediate Code Generation** *(Planned)*
- Will convert parsed and validated code into an intermediate representation.
5. **Optimization** *(Planned)*
- Aims to optimize intermediate code for better runtime efficiency.
6. **Code Generation** *(Planned)*
- Will translate intermediate representation into executable machine code.
7. **Error Handling** *(Planned)*
- Robust error handling throughout compilation stages to ensure useful feedback for debugging.

## Project Structure
```makefile
├── parser.cpp # Parses code into AST (completed)
└── README.md # Project documentation
```
## Installation
To set up and run the compiler locally, please follow these steps:
1. Clone the repository:
```bash
git clone https://github.com/AyeshaAshfaq12/C-Compiler.git
cd C-Compiler
```
2. Compile the project:
```bash
make
```
3. Run the executable on your code file:
```bash
./compiler your_code.cpp
```
## Usage
- The compiler currently supports the parsing of C++ code and provides output in the form of an Abstract Syntax Tree.
- As development progresses, additional functionalities like code generation and optimization will be integrated.
## Example
Include an example to demonstrate the compiler's current parsing capabilities.
#### Sample C++ Code Input:
```cpp
int main() {
int a = 5;
int b = 10;
return a + b;
}
```
