Lexical Analyzer

토큰으로 잘개 쪼개는 부분을 어휘 분석기

스캐너를 생성하는 도구인 LEX

FLEX (Fast LEXical analyzer generator) is a tool for generating scanners. In stead of writing a scanner from scratch, you only need to identify the vocabulary of a certain language (e.g. Simple), write a specification of patterns using regular expressions (e.g. DIGIT [0-9]), and FLEX will construct a scanner for you.

Chapter 1. Introducing Flex and Bison The earliest compilers back in the 1950s used utterly ad hoc techniques to analyze the syntax of the source code of programs they were compiling. During the 1960s, the field got a lot of academic attention, and by the early 1970s, syntax analysis was a well-understood field.
