Self-paced lessons
This advanced course in programming languages delves into sophisticated concepts and their implementations. Building on foundational knowledge, it covers continuations, continuation-passing style, operational semantics, type systems, and polymorphism. Students will implement interpreters using Scala and rigorously discuss concepts using operational semantics. The course aims to enhance students' ability to quickly learn new languages, evaluate language suitability for specific tasks, design domain-specific languages, and understand the impact of language design on thought and communication. Through a combination of theoretical understanding and practical implementation, students will gain a deep insight into the inner workings of programming languages.

There are 7 modules in this course
This course provides an in-depth exploration of advanced programming language concepts and their implementations. It is structured into seven modules, each focusing on specific aspects of language design and theory. The curriculum begins with continuations and continuation-passing style, progressing through operational semantics, type systems, type inference, and polymorphism. Students learn to implement these concepts using the Scala programming language, gaining practical experience in interpreter design. The course emphasizes both theoretical understanding through formal semantics and practical application through coding exercises. Key topics include first-class continuations, low-level representations of interpreters, various forms of operational semantics, type rules and checking, type inference algorithms, and different types of polymorphism. Throughout the course, students develop skills in analyzing and implementing complex language features, preparing them for advanced work in language design and compiler construction.
