Semantic analysis (compilers)
From Infogalactic: the planetary knowledge core
Semantic analysis, also context sensitive analysis, is a process in compiler construction, usually after parsing, to gather necessary semantic information from the source code. It usually includes type checking, or makes sure a variable is declared before use which is impossible to detect in parsing.
Implementation
- Haskell: usually with the help of Monad (functional programming) and applicative functor
