News You Can Bruise for 2000 May 23

It's finally working! It works on 12 of the 35 test cases! Woohoo!

This is so good. It took me forever to do this design, but now that I have it, adding semantic checks is a piece of cake. Even something complicated like "in a function, all return statements must return a value that can be coerced into the return value type of the function", which requires you to scan every single statement in a function, only takes a few minutes to write.

Also, I just discovered that my philosophy paper isn't due until Friday!

My semantic analyzer now works on 21 of the test cases. I believe the TA has chosen 25 of the 35 which he will use, so probably 15 of those cases will be ones that I can handle, which gives me an estimated grade of 60%.

Reminder to myself to work on cases 14, 18, 13, 17, and 11 tomorrow. If I can get these working, my estimated grade will go up to 74%, which I'm fairly sure will be above average.
