This text is the first comprehensive presentation of reduction semantics in one volume; it also introduces the first reliable and easy-to-use tool set for such forms of semantics. Software engineers have long known that automatic tool support is critical for rapid prototyping and modeling  and this book is addressed to the working semantics engineer (graduate student or professional language designer). The book comes with a prototyping tool suite to develop  explore  test  debug  and publish semantic models of programming languages. With PLT Redex  semanticists can formulate models as grammars and reduction models on their computers with the ease of paper and pencil. The text first presents a framework for the formulation of language models  focusing on equational calculi and abstract machines  then introduces PLT Redex  a suite of software tools for expressing these models as PLT Redex models. Finally  experts describe a range of models formulated in Redex. PLT Redex comes with the PLT Scheme implementation  available free at http:\/\/www.plt-scheme.org\/. Readers can download the software and experiment with Redex as they work their way through the book.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"My Store","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45648053239861,"sku":"ByrdShop_0262062755","price":49.31,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0627\/8139\/0901\/files\/9780262062756.jpg?v=1781708081","url":"https:\/\/atxbooks.com\/products\/semantics-engineering-with-plt-redex-9780262062756","provider":"ATX Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
