Question 1

100 pts

flex is a gnu implementation of lex, a program that allows you to process text searching
for patterns and an process matches with corresponding handlers. Patterns to match are
expressed as regular expressions, and the handlers are implemented in C. The output of
flex is a C file that is a complete implementation of the pattern matcher.
Although flex can be used for any scanner, it was designed as a generator of lexical
analyzers that you implemented by hand a couple of weeks ago.
Please study the lex tutorial before starting the implementation of this lab:

(http://epaperpress.com/lexandyacc/)

(here is a local PDF version

in case the tutorial Web site is down).

Focus on the "Lex" menu item and the "Practice" in this lab. We will study the other parts
in the following weeks.
Starting with the project seed in lab7_flex_t1.zip implement a lex-based C program
that scans for all the tokens of the language (keywords, identifiers, numbers, operators,
and so on) built over the following grammar:
 ::=  |  
 ::=  |  |  |

 ::=  =  ;
 ::= if (  ) then 
 ::= while (  ) do 
 ::= print  ;
 ::=  |   
 ::=  |   
 ::=  |  | -  | (  )
 ::=  |  [  |  | _ ]

 ::= a | b | c | d | e | f | g | h | i | j
| k | l | m | n | o | p | r | s | t
| u | v | w | x | y | z
 ::= + [ . + ]
 ::= 0 | 1 | 2 | 3 | 4 | 5 | 6 | 7 | 8 | 9
 ::= + |  ::= * | / | %
The main() should include the code for printing all tokens returned from the scanner
following the sample output provided in the package.
To test the scanner you may either enter the test program in the console, or you can put
the test program in a file (as done with flex_t1in.txt in the distributed CLion project),
and then either copy and paste the text into the console, or add the name of the input file
to the CLion configuration for the executable at the "Program arguments" label. For any
text added through the console, you need to provide the end of file character to finish the
program. That is done with the Command-d key combination on macOS.
In this lab, please ignore the file dummy.y that is an empty yacc/bison file necessary for
inducing creation of the scanner by lex/flex.
Please submit a zip archive of your complete CLion project directory.
