Also Known As: The (Green) Dragon Book
See also: 'Compilers - Principles, Techniques and Tools', by Aho, Sethi, and Ullman. ISBN 0201100886, published 1985 (the
RedDragonBook). From the back of it:
Anyone interested in compiler design is familiar with "The Dragon Book"... Since it was first published, the state of compiler design has advanced. As a result, Addison-Wesley announces the birth of a new dragon. (The Dragon Book they refer to is the
GreenDragon, obviously...however the term
TheDragonBook without a color nowadays usually referes to the
RedDragonBook)
I guess the world has moved on a lot since
that book too. Any advance?
