Question 1 |
S → Aa A → BD B → b | ε D → d | εLet a, b, d, and $ be indexed as follows:

Compute the FOLLOW set of the non-terminal B and write the index values for the symbols in the FOLLOW set in the descending order. (For example, if the FOLLOW set is {a, b, d, $}, then the answer should be 3210)
30 | |
31 | |
10 | |
21 |
{Follow(B) = Follow(A) when D is epsilon}
Follow(B) = {d} Union {a} = {a,d}
Hence Answer is : 31
Question 2 |
Leftmost in reverse | |
Rightmost in reverse | |
Leftmost | |
Rightmost |
Question 3 |
S' → S S → 〈L〉 | id L → L,S | S
Let I0 = CLOSURE ({[S' → ·S]}). The number of items in the set GOTO (I0 , 〈 ) is: _____.
4 | |
5 | |
6 | |
7 |

Hence, the set GOTO (I0 , 〈 ) has 5 items.
Question 4 |
Consider the following grammar and the semantic actions to support the inheriteatd type declaration attributes. Let X1, X2, X3, X4, X5 and X6 be the placeholders for the non-terminals D, T, L or L1 in the following table:

Which one of the following are the appropriate choices for X1, X2, X3 and X4?
X1 = L, X2 = L, X3 = L1, X4 = T | |
X1 = L, X2 = T, X3 = L1, X4 = L | |
X1 = T, X2 = L, X3 = L1, X4 = T | |
X1 = T, X2 = L, X3 = T, X4 = L1 |
L → L1, id {X3.type = X4.type } , this production has L and L1, hence X3 and X4 cannot be T.
So option 1, 3 and 4 cannot be correct.
Hence, 2 is correct answer.
Question 5 |
S->aSB| d
B->b
The number of reduction steps taken by a bottom-up parser while accepting the string aaadbbb is _______.
7 |

7 reductions total.
Question 6 |
I. Symbol table is accessed only during lexical analysis and syntax analysis.
II. Compilers for programming languages that support recursion necessarily need heap storage for memory allocation in the run-time environment.
III. Errors violating the condition ‘any variable must be declared before its use’ are detected during syntax analysis.
Which of the above statements is/are TRUE?
II only | |
I only
| |
I and III only
| |
None of I, II and III
|
II is wrong as compilers which supports recursion require stack memory in run time environment.
III is wrong “any variable must be declared before its use” is a semantic error and nit syntax error.
Question 7 |
Rule 1: P.i = A.i + 2, Q.i = P.i + A.i, and A.s = P.s + Q.s
Rule 2: X.i = A.i + Y.s and Y.i = X.s + A.i
Which one of the following is TRUE?
Only Rule 2 is L-attributed. | |
Neither Rule 1 nor Rule 2 is L-attributed.
| |
Both Rule 1 and Rule 2 are L-attributed.
| |
Only Rule 1 is L-attributed.
|
X.i= A.i + Y.s which is violating the L attribute definition, as in L attribute calculating attribute vale from RHS sibling is not allowed.
Question 8 |
Context-free grammar can be used to specify both lexical and syntax rules.
| |
Type checking is done before parsing. | |
High-level language programs can be translated to different Intermediate Representations.
| |
Arguments to a function can be passed using the program stack.
|
Question 9 |
Consider the following parse tree for the expression a#b$c$d#e#f, involving two binary operators $ and #.

Which one of the following is correct for the given parse tree?
$ has higher precedence and is left associative; # is right associative
| |
# has higher precedence and is left associative; $ is right associative
| |
$ has higher precedence and is left associative; # is left associative | |
# has higher precedence and is right associative; $ is left associative
|
Question 10 |
A lexical analyzer uses the following patterns to recognize three tokens T1, T2, and T3 over the alphabet {a,b,c}.
-
T1: a?(b∣c)*a
T2: b?(a∣c)*b
T3: c?(b∣a)*c
Note that ‘x?’ means 0 or 1 occurrence of the symbol x. Note also that the analyzer outputs the token that matches the longest possible prefix.
If the string bbaacabc is processes by the analyzer, which one of the following is the sequence of tokens it outputs?
T1T2T3
| |
T1T1T3 | |
T2T1T3 | |
T3T3 |
T1 : (b+c)*a + a(b+c)*a
T2 : (a+c)*b + b(a+c)*b
T3 : (b+a)*c + c(b+a)*c
Now the string is: bbaacabc
Please NOTE:
Token that matches the longest possible prefix
We can observe that the longest possible prefix in string is : bbaac which can be generated by T3.
After prefix we left with “abc” which is again generated by T3 (as longest possible prefix).
So, answer is T3T3.
Question 11 |
Consider the following intermediate program in three address code
p = a - b q = p * c p = u * v q = p + q
Which of the following corresponds to a static single assignment form of the above code?
![]() | |
![]() | |
![]() | |
![]() |
In Static Single Assignment form (SSA) each assignment to a variable should be specified with distinct names.
We use subscripts to distinguish each definition of variables.
In the given code segment, there are two assignments of the variable p
p = a-b
p = u*v
and two assignments of the variable q
q = p*c
q = p+q
So we use two variables p1, p2 for specifying distinct assignments of p and q1, q2 for each assignment of q.
Static Single Assignment form(SSA) of the given code segment is:
p1 = a-b
q1 = p1 * c
p2 = u * v
q2 = p2 + q1
Note:
As per options, given in GATE 2017 answer is B.
p3 = a - b
q4 = p3 * c
p4 = u * v
q5 = p4 + q4
Question 12 |
{R} | |
{w} | |
{w, y} | |
{w, $} |
FOLLOW (Q) = FIRST (R)
FIRST (R) = {w, ϵ} >br> Since FIRST (R) = {ϵ}, so FOLLOW (Q) → {w} ∪ FIRST(S)
FIRST(S) = {y}
So, FOLLOW (Q) = {w, y}
Question 13 |
Consider the following grammar:
stmt → if expr then expr else expr; stmt | ȯ expr → term relop term | term term → id | number id → a | b | c number → [0-9]
where relop is a relational operator (e.g., <, >, …), ȯ refers to the empty statement, and if, then, else are terminals.
Consider a program P following the above grammar containing ten if terminals. The number of control flow paths in P is ________. For example, the program
if e1 then e2 else e3
has 2 control flow paths, e1 → e2 and e1 → e3.
1024 | |
1025 | |
1026 | |
1027 |
if
if
:
:
:
(keep doing 10 times to get 10 'if')
We know that every if statement has 2 control flows as given in question. Hence,
We have 2 control flow choices for 1st 'if'
We have 2 control flow choices for 2nd 'if'
:
:
:
We have 2 control flow choices for 10th 'if'
Since all the choices are in one single structure or combination, so total choices are
2 × 2 × 2 × ........ 10 times = 210 = 1024
Question 14 |
Consider the expression (a-1)*(((b+c)/3)+d)). Let X be the minimum number of registers required by an optimal code generation (without any register spill) algorithm for a load/store architecture, in which (i) only load and store instructions can have memory operands and (ii) arithmetic instructions can have only register or immediate operands. The value of X is ___________.

Question 15 |
Match the following according to input (from the left column) to the compiler phase (in the right column) that processes it:

P→(ii), Q→(iii), R→(iv), S→(i) | |
P→(ii), Q→(i), R→(iii), S→(iv) | |
P→(iii), Q→(iv), R→(i), S→(ii) | |
P→(i), Q→(iv), R→(ii), S→(iii) |
Token stream is forwarded as input to Syntax analyzer which produces syntax tree as output. So, S → (ii).
Syntax tree is the input for the semantic analyzer, So P → (iii).
Intermediate representation is input for Code generator. So R → (i).
Question 16 |
Which of the following statements about parser is/are CORRECT?
-
I. Canonical LR is more powerful than SLR.
II. SLR is more powerful than LALR.
III. SLR is more powerful than Canonical LR.
I only | |
II only | |
III only | |
II and III only |
The power in increasing order is:
LR(0) < SLR < LALR < CLR
Hence only I is true.
Question 17 |
Consider the following expression grammar G:
-
E → E - T | T
T → T + F | F
F → (E) | id
Which of the following grammars is not left recursive, but is equivalent to G?
![]() | |
![]() | |
![]() | |
![]() |
S→Sα | β
The equivalent production (after removing left recursion) is
S→βS1
S1→αS1 | ϵ
Hence after removing left recursion from: E→ E-T | T, here α = -T and β = T
E→TE1
E1→ -TE1 | ϵ
After removing left recursion from: T→T+F | F, here α=+F and β=F
T→FT1
T1→ +FT1 | ϵ
Replace E1 = X and T1 = Y
We have,
E→TX
X→-TX | ϵ
T→FY
Y→+FY | ϵ
F→(E)| id
Question 18 |
Consider the following code segment.
x = u - t; y = x * v; x = y + w; y = t - z; y = x * y;
The minimum number of variables required to convert the above code segment to static single assignment form is ________.
10 | |
11 | |
12 | |
13 |
Generally, subscripts are used to distinguish each definition of variables.
In the given code segment, there are two assignments of the variable x
x = u - t;
x = y + w;
and three assignments of the variable y.
y = x * v;
y = t - z;
y = x * y
Hence, two variables viz x1, x2 should be used for specifying distinct assignments of x
and for y it is named as y1, y2 and y3 for each assignment of y.
Hence, total number of variables is 10 (x1, x2, y1, y2, y3, t, u, v, w, z), and there are 5 temporary variables.
Static Single Assignment form (SSA) of the given code segment is:
x1 = u - t;
y1 = x1 * v;
x2 = y1 + w;
y2 = t - z;
y3 = x2 * y2;
Question 19 |
The attributes of three arithmetic operators in some programming language are given below.
Operator Precedence Associativity Arity + High Left Binary − Medium Right Binary ∗ Low Left Binary
The value of the expression 2 – 5 + 1 – 7 * 3 in this language is __________.
9 | |
10 | |
11 | |
12 |
2 − 5 + 1 − 7 * 3 = 2 − (5 + 1) − 7 * 3 = 2 − 6 − 7 * 3
Now, − has more precedence than *, so sub will be evaluated before * and – has right associative so (6 − 7) will be evaluated first.
2 − 6 − 7 * 3 = (2 − (6 − 7)) * 3 = (2 – (−1)) * 3 = 3 * 3 = 9
Question 20 |
Consider the following Syntax Directed Translation Scheme (SDTS), with non-terminals {S, A} and terminals {a,b}.
S → aA { print 1 } S → a { print 2 } A → Sb { print 3 }
Using the above SDTS, the output printed by a bottom-up parser, for the input aab is:
1 3 2 | |
2 2 3 | |
2 3 1 | |
syntax error |

Question 21 |
Match the following:
(P) Lexical analysis (i) Leftmost derivation (Q) Top down parsing (ii) Type checking (R) Semantic analysis (iii) Regular expressions (S) Runtime environments (iv) Activation records
P ↔ i, Q ↔ ii, R ↔ iv, S ↔ iii | |
P ↔ iii, Q ↔ i, R ↔ ii, S ↔ iv | |
P ↔ ii, Q ↔ iii, R ↔ i, S ↔ iv | |
P ↔ iv, Q ↔ i, R ↔ ii, S ↔ iii |
Top down parsing has left most derivation of any string.
Type checking is done in semantic analysis.
Activation records are loaded into memory at runtime.
Question 22 |
Which one of the following grammars is free from left recursion?
![]() | |
![]() | |
![]() | |
![]() |
The grammar in option C has indirect left recursion because of production, (S→Aa and A→Sc).
The grammar in option D also has indirect left recursion because of production, (A→Bd and B→Ae).
Question 23 |
Which one of the following is True at any valid state in shift-reduce parsing?
Viable prefixes appear only at the bottom of the stack and not inside
| |
Viable prefixes appear only at the top of the stack and not inside | |
The stack contains only a set of viable prefixes | |
The stack never contains viable prefixes
|
A viable prefixes is prefix of the handle and so can never extend to the right of handle, i.e., top of stack.
So set of viable prefixes is in stack.
Question 24 |
8 | |
9 | |
10 | |
11 |
The given expression:
q+r/3+s−t∗5+u∗v/w
t1=r/3;
t2=t∗5;
t3=u∗v;
t4=t3/w;
t5=q+t1;
t6=t5+s;
t7=t6−t2;
t8=t7+t4;
So in total we need 8 temporary variables. If it was not mentioned as static single assignment then answer would have been 3 because we can re-use the same temporary variable several times.
Question 25 |
an-2+an-1+2n-2
| |
an-2+2an-1+2n-2 | |
2an-2+an-1+2n-2 | |
2an-2+2an-1+2n-2 |
So, a1 = 0
For string of length 2,
a2 = 1
Similarly, a3 = 3
a4 = 8
Only (A) will satisfy the above values.
Question 26 |
1. There exists a statement Sj that uses x 2. There is a path from Si to Sj in the flow graph corresponding to the program 3. The path has no intervening assignment to x including at Si and Sj
p, s, u | |
r, s, u | |
r, u | |
q, v |
A variable is live at some point if it holds a value that may be needed in the future, of equivalently if its value may be read before the next time the variable is written to.
→ '1' can be assigned by the p and s and there is no intermediate use of them before that.
→ And p and s are not to be live in the both 2 & 3.
→ And q also assigned to u not live in 2 & 3.
→ And v is live at 3 not at 2.
→ u is live at 3 and also at 2, if we consider a path of length 0 from 2-8.
Finally r, u is the correct one.
Question 27 |
In both AST and CFG, let node, N2 be the successor of node N1. In the input program, the code corresponding to N2 is present after the code corresponding in N1.
| |
For any input program, neither AST nor CFG will contain a cycle
| |
The maximum number of successors of a node in an AST and a CFG depends on the input program
| |
Each node is AST and CFG corresponds to at most one statement in the input program
|
Option (B) is false as CFG can contain cycle
Option (D) is false as a single node can contain block of statements.
Question 28 |
P-2,Q-3,R-1,S-4 | |
P-2,Q-1,R-4,S-3 | |
P-2,Q-4,R-1,S-3 | |
P-2,Q-3,R-4,S-1 |
Q) Expression can be evaluated with postfix traversals.
R) Register allocation can be done by graph colouring.
S) The parser constructs a production tree.
Hence, answer is ( C ).

Question 31 |
S → F ⎪ H F → p ⎪ c H → d ⎪ cWhere S, F and H are non-terminal symbols, p, d and c are terminal symbols. Which of the following statement(s) is/are correct?
S1: LL(1) can parse all strings that are generated using grammar G. S2: LR(1) can parse all strings that are generated using grammar
Only S1 | |
Only S2 | |
Both S1 and S2 | |
Neither S1 nor S2 |
For first production,

So, there is 'c' common in both the first(s) in the production of S. So not LL(1).
For LR(1),

Since R-R conflict is present. So, not LR(1).
Hence, Option (D) is the correct answer.
Question 32 |
A basic block is a sequence of instructions where control enters the sequence at the beginning and exits at the end. | |
Available expression analysis can be used for common subexpression elimination. | |
Live variable analysis can be used for dead code elimination. | |
x=4*5⇒x=20 is an example of common subexpression elimination. |
Common subexpression elimination (CSE) is a compiler optimization that searches for instances of identical expressions (i.e., they all evaluate to the same value), and analyzes whether it is worthwhile replacing them with a single variable holding the computed value.
For ex: Consider the following code:
m=y+z * p
n= y+z *k
The common subexpression is “y+z” we can be calculate it one time and replace in both expression
temp = y+z
m = temp*p
n = temp*k
Question 33 |
S --> L. > R Q --> R.On input symbol < the set has
a shift-reduce conflict and a reduce-reduce conflict. | |
a shift-reduce conflict but not a reduce-reduce conflict. | |
a reduce-reduce conflict but not a shift-reduce conflict. | |
neither a shift-reduce nor a reduce-reduce conflict. |
But if it would have asked about “>” then it will be a SR conflict.
Question 34 |
Neither L nor ![]() | |
One of L and ![]() | |
Both L and ![]() | |
Both L and ![]() |
Question 35 |

I) 0*1(1+00*1)* II) 0*1*1+11*0*1 III) (0+1)*1
I and II only | |
I and III only | |
II and III only | |
I, II, and III |
So the regular expression corresponding to DFA is (0+1)*1.
Now, by using state elimination method,
So the DFA also has another equivalent regular expression: 0*1(1+00*1)*.
But the regular expression (0*1*1+11*0*1) is not equivalent to DFA, as the DFA also accept the string “11011” which cannot be generated by this regular expression.
Question 36 |
S --> T * P T --> U | T * U P --> Q + P | Q Q --> Id U --> IdWhich one of the following is TRUE?
+ is left associative, while ∗ is right associative | |
+ is right associative, while ∗ is left associative | |
Both + and ∗ are right associative | |
Both + and ∗ are left associative |
P ⟶ Q + P, here P is right recursive, so + is right associative.

Question 38 |
t0 = i ∗ 1024 t1 = j ∗ 32 t2 = k ∗ 4 t3 = t1 + t0 t4 = t3 + t2 t5 = X[t4]Which one of the following statements about the source code for the C program is CORRECT?
X is declared as “int X[32][32][8]”. | |
X is declared as “int X[4][1024][32]”. | |
X is declared as “char X[4][32][8]”. | |
X is declared as “char X[32][16][2]”. |
Arr[0][1][2], this 3-D array contains
1 two dimensional array as i value is zero ( if i =1 then it has 2, two D array ), & the two dimension array has 2 row and 3 column.
So, In a 3-D array, i represent number of 2D arrays, j represent number of rows and k represent number of columns.
Number of 2 D array (M)=1
Number of rows (R)=2
Number of columns (C)=3

As arrays are stored in row major order, so this 2 dimension array will be stored as:

Assume base address of Arr is 1000. The address of required position is calculated as:
Arr[i][j][k]= Arr+ [i*(R*C)+(j*C)+k]*4 // multiplication to 4 is due to int takes 4 Bytes.
Arr[0][1][1]= 1000+[0*(2*3)+(1*3)+1]*4
=1000+[ 0+3+1 ]*4
=1000+4*4
=1016
As you can see that in the given example of row order storing of array also has address of Arr[0][1][1] is 1016.
Now coming to the question:
X [ i ][ j ][ k ] is calculated by 3 address code X[t4]
X [ i ][ j ][ k ] = X [ t4 ] // by substituting in reverse
=X [ t3 + t2]
=X [ t1 + t0 + k*4]
=X [ t0 + t1 + k*4] // t0 and t1 swapped as swapping doesn't have any impact
=X [ i*1024 + j*32 + k*4]
=X [ i*256 + j*8 +k] *4 // taking 4 (common) outside
= X [ i*(32*8)+ (j*8) +k] *4
By comparing the above line with ....... Arr[i][j][k]= Arr+ [i*(R*C)+(j*C)+k]*4
We get R=32, C=8
It means the the declared array has 32 rows and 8 columns and since multiplication by 4 (common outside) so it was declared as INT.
But how many number of 2D arrays in this 3D array, we don't know.
Since option A is the only option with configuration: INT arr[ ] [ 32 ] [ 8]. So it is right option.

1) epsilon production
2) production of the form A → a
Consider the grammar:
S → Sa | a
If we were to derive the string “aaa” whose length is 3 then the number of reduce moves that would have been required are shown below:
S→ Sa
→Saa
→aaa
This shows us that it has three reduce moves. The string length is 3 and the number of reduce moves is also 3. So presence of such kinds of production might give us the answer “n” for maximum number of reduce moves. But these productions are not allowed as per the question.
Also note that if a grammar does not have unit production then the maximum number of reduce moves can not exceed “n” where “n” denotes the length of the string.
3) No unit productions
Consider the grammar:
S→ A
A→ B
B→C
C→a
If we were to derive the string “a” whose length is 1 then the number of reduce moves that would have been required are shown below:
S→ A
A→ B
B→C
C→a
This shows us that it has four reduce moves. The string length is 1 and the number of reduce moves is 4. So presence of such kind of productions might give us the answer “n+1” or even more, for maximum number of reduce moves. But these productions are not allowed as per the question.
Now keeping in view the above points suppose we want to parse the string “abcd”. (n = 4) using bottom-up parsing where strings are parsed finding the rightmost derivation of a given string backwards. So here we are concentrating on deriving right most derivations only.
We can write the grammar which accepts this string which in accordance to the question, (i.e., with no epsilon- and unit-production (i.e., of type A → є and A → B) and no production of the form A→a) as follows:
S→aB
B→bC
C→cd
The Right Most Derivation for the above is:
S → aB (Reduction 3)
→ abC (Reduction 2)
→ abcd (Reduction 1)
We can see here the number of reductions present is 3.
We can get less number of reductions with some other grammar which also doesn’t produce unit or epsilon productions or production of the form A→a:
S→abA
A→ cd
The Right Most Derivation for the above is:
S → abA (Reduction 2)
→ abcd (Reduction 1)
Hence 2 reductions.
But we are interested in knowing the maximum number of reductions which comes from the 1st grammar. Hence total 3 reductions as maximum, which is (n – 1) as n = 4 here.
Question 44 |
X -> c.X, c/d X -> .cX, c/d X -> .d, c/d X -> c.X, $ X -> .cX, $ X -> .d, $Which of the following statements related to merging of the two sets in the corresponding LALR parser is/are FALSE?
- Cannot be merged since look aheads are different.
- Can be merged but will result in S-R conflict.
- Can be merged but will result in R-R conflict.
- Cannot be merged since goto on c will lead to two different sets.
1 only | |
2 only | |
1 and 4 only | |
1, 2, 3 and 4 |
In the given LR(1) items there is not any reduce move, so after merging it will not have SR conflict and hence statement 2 and statement 3 are false.
Statement 4 is also wrong, because goto is carried on Non-Terminals symbols, not on terminal symbols, and c is a terminal symbol.
Hence all statements are false.
Question 45 |
Program main; Var ... Procedure A1; Var ... Call A2; End A1 Procedure A2; Var ... Procedure A21; Var ... Call A1; End A21 Call A21; End A21 Call A1; End main.Consider the calling chain : Main->A1->A2->A21->A1 The correct set of activation records along with their access links is given by :
![]() | |
![]() | |
![]() | |
![]() |

Main → A1 → A2 → A21 → A1
Since, Activation records are created at procedure exit time.
A1 & A2 are defined under Main ( ). So A1 & A2 access links are pointed to main.
A21 is defined under A2, hence its access link will point to A2.

FOLLOW(A) = {b} // because of production S→a A b B
FOLLOW(A) = {a} // because of production S→ b A a B
So FOLLOW (A) = {a, b}
FOLLOW (B) = FOLLOW (S) // because of production S→ a A b B
FOLLOW (S) = FOLLOW (A) // because of production A → S
So FOLLOW (S) = {$, a, b}= FOLLOW(B)

E1: S → aAbB,S→ ε E2: S → bAaB,S → ε E3: S → ε | |
E1: S → aAbB,S → ε E2: S → bAaB,S→ε E3: B → S | |
E1: A → S,S →ε E2: B → S,S → ε E3: B →S |
S→ aAbB | bAaB | ε
The production S→ aAbB will go under column FIRST (aAbB) = a, so S→ aAbB will be in E1.
S→ bAaB will go under column FIRST(bAaB) = b, so S→ bAaB will be in E2.
S→ ε will go under FOLLOW (S) = FOLLOW(B) = {a, b, $ } , So S→ ε will go in E1, E2 and under column of $.
So E1 will have: S→ aAbB and S→ ε.
E2 will have S→ bAaB and S→ ε.
Now, B→ S will go under FIRST (S) = {a, b, ε}
Since FIRST(S) = ε so B→ S will go under FOLLOW (B) = {a, b, $}
So E3 will contain B→ S.

Question 54 |
a = 1 b = 10 c = 20 d = a+b e = c+d f = c+e b = c+e e = b+f d = 5+e return d+fAssuming that all operations take their operands from registers, what is the minimum number of registers needed to execute this program without spilling?
2 | |
3 | |
4 | |
6 |
Assume 'a' is mapped to r1, 'b' to r2 and 'c' to r3.
d = a + b, after this line if u notice 'a' is never present on right hand side, so we can map 'd' to r1.
e = c + d, after this line 'd' is never present on rhs, so we can map 'e' to r1.
at this time mapping is
r1 --- e
r2 --- b
r3 --- c
We have 3 registers for e, b and c.
f = c + e
b = c + e
These two are essentially doing same thing, after these two line 'b' and 'f' are same so we can skip computing 'f' or need not give any new register for 'f'. And wherever 'f' is present we can replace it with 'b', because neither of 'f' and 'b' are changing after these two lines, so value of these will be 'c+e' till the end of the program.
At second last line "d = 5 + e"
here 'd' is introduced, we can map it to any of the register r1 or r3, because after this line neither of 'e' or 'c' is required. Value of 'b' is required because we need to return 'd+f', and 'f' is essentially equal to 'b'
finally code becomes
r1 = 1
r2 = 10
r3 = 20
r1 = r1 + r2
r1 = r3 + r1
r2 = r3 + r1
r2 = r3 + r1
r1 = r2 + r2
r3 = 5 + r1
return r3 + r2
Therefore minimum 3 registers needed.

Statement I is true, as the bottom up and top down parser take O(n) time to parse the string , i.e. only one scan of input is required.
Statement IV is true,Code improving transformations can be performed at both source language and intermediate code level. For example implicit type casting is also a kind of code improvement which is done during semantic analysis phase and intermediate code optimization is a topic itself which uses various techniques to improve the code such as loop unrolling, loop invariant.

Question 61 |
the SLR(1) parser for G has S-R conflicts
| |
the LR(1) parser for G has S-R conflicts
| |
the LR(0) parser for G has S-R conflicts | |
the LALR(1) parser for G has reduce-reduce conflicts
|
Consider a state in LR(1) parser:
S-> x.yA, a
A-> x. , y
This has both shift and reduce conflict on symbol “y”.
Since LR(1) already has SR conflict , so resulting LALR(1) (after merging) will also have SR conflict.
Now if LR(1) doesn’t have SR conflict then it is guaranteed that the LALR(1) will never have SR conflict. The reason behind this is, as we merge those state only which has same set of canonical items except look ahead and the LR(1) canonical items has DFA (means from one state to other state the transition is from unique symbol) , so after merging also we will never see any shift conflict, only reduce-reduce may occur.
Hence An LALR(1) parser for a grammar G can have shift-reduce (S-R) conflicts if and only if the LR(1) parser for G has S-R conflicts.

it is left recursive
| |
it is right recursive | |
it is ambiguous
| |
it is not context-free |
This grammar has two parse tree for string “ibt ibt aea”.

Question 64 |
P: Every regular grammar is LL(1) Q: Every regular set has a LR(1) grammarWhich of the following is TRUE?
Both P and Q are true
| |
P is true and Q is false
| |
P is false and Q is true
| |
Both P and Q are false
|
For ex: Consider a regular grammar
S->aS | a | ϵ
this grammar is ambiguous as for string "a" two parse tree is possible.

Hence it is regular but not LL(1).
But every regular set has a language acceptor as DFA , so every regular set must have atleast one grammar which is unambiguous.
Hence, every regular set has LR(1) grammar.

Question 70 |
for (i = 0, i<n; i++) { for (j=0; j<n; j++) { if (i%2) { x += (4*j + 5*i); y += (7 + 4*j); } } } |
The code contains loop invariant computation
| |
There is scope of common sub-expression elimination in this code | |
There is scope of strength reduction in this code
| |
There is scope of dead code elimination in this code
|
→ 5*i can be moved out of inner loop. So can be i%2, here loopinvarient computation can be done, so option A is correct.
→ 4*i, 5*j can also be replaced so there is a scope of strength reduction. So C is true.
→ But there is no dead code to eliminate, we can replace the variable representation only.
Question 71 |
S → FR R → S | ε F → idIn the predictive parser table, M, of the grammar the entries M[S, id] and M[R, $] respectively.
{S → FR} and {R → ε}
| |
{S → FR} and { } | |
{S → FR} and {R → *S} | |
{F → id} and {R → ε} |

The representation M[X,Y] means X represents Variable (rows) and Y represents terminals (columns).
The productions are filled in parsing table by the below mentioned rules:
For every production P → α, we have:
Rule 1: If P → α is a production then add this production for each terminal “t” which is in FIRST of [α] i.e., ADD P → α to M[P, a]
Rule 2: If “ϵ” belongs to FIRST of [P] then add P → α to M[P, b] where “b” represents terminals FOLLOW[P].
By the above rules, we can see that production S → FR will go M[S, a] where “a” is FIRST [FR] which is equal to FIRST[F] = id, So S → FR will go in M[S,id].
Since in the production R→ϵ , FIRST[ϵ] = ϵ, hence the production will go in M[R, b] where “b” represents terminals FOLLOW[R] and FOLLOW[R] = $, so production R→ϵ will go in M[R,$]
Question 72 |
subroutine swap(ix,iy) it = ix L1 : ix = iy L2 : iy = it end ia = 3 ib = 8 call swap (ia, 1b+5) print *, ia, ib endS1: The compiler will generate code to allocate a temporary nameless cell, initialize it to 13, and pass the address of the cell swap S2: On execution the code will generate a runtime error on line L1 S3: On execution the code will generate a runtime error on line L2 S4: The program will print 13 and 8 S5: The program will print 13 and -2 Exactly the following set of statement(s) is correct:
S1 is false and S2 is false
| |
S1 is false and S2 is true
| |
S1 is true and S2 is false
| |
S1 is true and S2 is true
|
So, given statement is wrong.
S1: Let us assume an array = {1,2,3,4,5} and i=0.
Let j = i+2 = 0+2 = 2
For the respective example work1 and work2 results 1 and 0, so S1 statement is False.

Which one of the following is true about the action of yacc for the given grammar?
It detects recursion and eliminates recursion
| |
It detects reduce-reduce conflict, and resolves
| |
It detects shift-reduce conflict, and resolves the conflict in favor of a shift over a reduce action
| |
It detects shift-reduce conflict, and resolves the conflict in favor of a reduce over a shift action

Question 75 |
E → number E.val = number. val | E '+' E E(1).val = E(2).val + E(3).val | E '×' E E(1).val = E(2).val × E(3).valAssume the conflicts in Part (a) of this question are resolved and an LALR(1) parser is generated for parsing arithmetic expressions as per the given grammar. Consider an expression 3 × 2 + 1. What precedence and associativity properties does the generated parser realize?
Equal precedence and left associativity; expression is evaluated to 7
| |
Equal precedence and right associativity; expression is evaluated to 9
| |
Precedence of '×' is higher than that of '+', and both operators are left associative; expression is evaluated to 7
| |
Precedence of '+' is higher than that of '×', and both operators are left associative; expression is evaluated to 9
|

Hence, the answer is 9 and right associative.

| |
n, n + n and n + n × n
| |
n, E + n and E × n
|
→ E + n * n {Applying E → E + n}
→ n + n * n {Applying E → n}
We use n, E+n, E×n reductions to get a sentence n+n*n.

n1 = n3 < n2
| |
n1 = n2 = n3
| |
n1 ≥ n3 ≥ n2 |
→ LR(1) be the states of LR(1) items.
→ LR(0) items never be greater than LR(1) items then SLR(1) = LALR(1) < LR(1)
n1 = (n3) < (n2)

B, C and D. |
Reduce entry and error entry may be different due to conflicts.
Question 116 |
Assembly | |
Parsing | |
Relocation | |
Symbol resolution |
Question 117 |
An unambiguous grammar has same leftmost and rightmost derivation | |
An LL(1) parser is a top-down parser | |
LALR is more powerful than SLR | |
An ambiguous grammar can never be LR(k) for any k |
Option C: LALR is more powerful than SLR.
Option D: An ambiguous grammar can never be LR (k) for any k, because LR(k) algorithm aren’t designed to handle ambiguous grammars. It would get stuck into undecidability problem, if employed upon an ambiguous grammar, no matter how large the constant k is.
Question 119 |
Theory Explanation is given below. |
Question 121 |
3 , 4 |
So, in total 3 registers are required and 6 memory operations in total to fetch all operands.
Question 122 |
properly nested. |
Question 123 |
matches the parameters of the macro-definition with locations of the parameters of the macro call | |
matches external names of one program with their location in other programs | |
matches the parameters of subroutine definition with the location of parameters of subroutine call | |
acts as link between text editor and the user | |
acts as a link between compiler and user program. |
1) external symbol resolution
2) relocation
Question 124 |
Recursive descent parsing cannot be used for grammar with left recursion. | |
The intermediate form the representing expressions which is best suited for code optimization is the post fix form.
| |
A programming language not supporting either recursion or pointer type does not need the support of dynamic memory allocation. | |
Although C does not support call by name parameter passing, the effect can be correctly simulated in C.
| |
No feature of Pascal violates strong typing in Pascal. | |
A and D |
(B) False.
(C) It is false. The language can have dynamic data types which required dynamically growing memory when data type size increases.
(D) Is true and using macro we can do this.
(E) Out of syllabus now.
