  1. What's your language going to look like? Also, how are you implementing the compiler?

  2.  @RAINE____  If it can't be logged physically or transmitted home, then it just gets dropped. Faster and safer that way for an embedded device that will be billions of miles away from maintenance.

  3. I thought you were going to say something about shielding from cosmic rays. Imagine having your code fail because of radiation.

  4. C doesn't have virtual functions, you're thinking of C++.

  5.  @redcrafterlppa303  Are you going to do it as recursive descent or some kind of finite state machine or something else? Kind of reminds me of writing my first parser in high school in Pascal. That was fun.

  6.  @redcrafterlppa303  I hope you have a copy of the dragon book, but you should also look into the book that LCC was written for, A Retargetable C Compiler by Fraser and Hanson. Just try to save money by buying used copies because the dragon book is overpriced.
