Challenge Problems

Push your limits with advanced challenges

Challenge 1 Hard

Discuss the implications of having a poorly functioning semantic analysis phase in a compiler. What kind of errors might persist into the final code?

💡 Hint: Consider how these errors would affect program execution.

Challenge 2 Hard

Create a simple program with a semantic error related to type checking. Explain how the error can be corrected.

💡 Hint: Remember the rules of data types in programming languages.
