Compilers translate one language to another. They're most commonly used to translate higher level languages like C to lower level languages like Assembly.

# To Review

- [CS 6120](https://www.cs.cornell.edu/courses/cs6120/2019fa/) :: Advanced compilers course. Lots of cool things to learn about optimisation!
- [Implementing functional languages: a tutorial - Microsoft Research](https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/research/publication/implementing-functional-languages-a-tutorial/)
- [Compilers - Compilers for contrarians](https://crypto.stanford.edu/~blynn/compiler/)
- [MLton](http://www.mlton.org/): A whole program optimizer for SML. OCaml has far more support, sure, but the prospect of a whole-program optimizer is compelling!

# HOPL

Papers released every ten or so years recapping advancements in programming languages from that decade.
Great resource for learning about the history of programming languages research by definition.
