Literature and Other Resources

Supplementary literature and material (will be updated as needed)

• For programming in C using the (ANSI) C99 standard, here is a description of differences wrt. earlier standards as well as implementation status in gcc 4.6 (you are unlikely to run into any difficulties here and can likely just ignore these two links).

• You probably already have LaTeX resources, but here are possible newer and older supplements with different advantages and disadvantages: LaTeX Wikibook, LaTeX introduction, LaTeX Manual, The Not So Short Introduction to LaTeX.

• The package listings is nice for inclusion of C programs into LaTeX. See the example files showing how to handle C programs, output listings, and even defining nice output for programming languages not known by the package in advance.

• There are also a number of C++2LaTeX (also called Cpp2LaTeX) packages available for making somewhat nicer LaTeX-integrated inclusions of C programs into the report, e.g., Arnolds drupal.

• Version control software: git is a newer popular choice. There are lots of tutorials, including this extensive presentation. There is also a local introduction to Mercurial (in Danish) by Jakob Lykke Andersen. There are older choices that you can use if you know them already, e.g., cvs (in Danish) by Jens Svalgaard Kohrt.

• The style file bnf.sty can be a help in type setting the grammar: bnf.sty, LaTeX-example.

• The flex/bison Tiny Expressions example.

• The Kitty programs can be found in the directory /home/IMADA/courses/cc/. Here, you also find a check program, check.py. See the beginning of the file check.py for how to use the program.
