Question
So I need help solving this particular HW problem.

Transcribed Image Text:Write a lexical analyzer to scan the following program snippet.
/* The main function */
int main() {
}
int number
print("Number " + number);
return 0;
3;
Your lexical analyzer (recognizer, scanner, i.e., your program) should -
1) read the code snippet one character at a time
2) skip comments and white spaces
3) once it recognizes a lexeme, it should associate it with its corresponding token
Tokens used in this program ( a simplified version) -
• KEYWORD: return, int
• OPERATOR: =, +
• IDENTIFIER: any non-keyword variables
• Constants:
H
• STRING_LIT // string of characters. Note: surrounded by a pair of "
• INT_LIT // integer numbers
• SEPERATOR: ;
• DELIMITER: (,), {}
Your program should display something like the following:
(KEYWROD, int)
(IDENTIFIER, main)
(DELIMITER, ()
(DELIMITER, ))
