8+
## Project Overview
9+
10+
The Python Interpreter project aims to develop a fully functional interpreter for the Python programming language from scratch, using C++ as the implementation language. This project serves as an impressive demonstration of technical expertise and deep understanding of both Python and C++.
11+
12+
### Key Features
13+
14+
+ Language Parsing: The interpreter includes a robust parser capable of parsing Python source code and generating an abstract syntax tree (AST) representation.
15+
16+
+ Lexical Analysis: A comprehensive lexer/tokenizer module is implemented to break down the input source code into tokens, facilitating the subsequent parsing and interpretation stages.
17+
18+
+ Semantic Analysis: The interpreter performs semantic analysis on the parsed AST to detect and report any language-specific errors, such as undeclared variables or type mismatches.
19+
20+
+ Execution Engine: A powerful execution engine is designed to execute the parsed Python code, implementing the language's semantics and executing statements, expressions, and control flow constructs.
21+
22+
+ Standard Library Support: Efforts are made to provide support for a subset of Python's standard library modules, enabling the interpreter to execute a wide range of Python programs.
