📘 Programming Languages: Application and Interpretation – (2025–2026 Edition)
📚 Programming Languages: Application and Interpretation (2025–2026 Edition) is a complete syllabus book designed for BSCS, BSIT, Software Engineering students, and self-learners aiming to master programming languages, their design, and implementation. This edition includes MCQs, and quizzes, to provide a practical and academic approach to understanding interpreters, compilers, type systems, and abstractions.
The book explores both theory and practical implementation, bridging language paradigms, control structures, objects, modules, and domain-specific languages. Students will learn to reason about programming languages, formulate abstractions, and apply higher-order functions effectively.
