Questions & Step-by-Step Solutions

Which of the following best describes synthesized attributes?
  • Step 1: Understand what a parse tree is. A parse tree is a tree structure that represents the syntactic structure of a string according to a grammar.
  • Step 2: Identify what child nodes are. In a parse tree, child nodes are the nodes that are directly connected to a parent node below it.
  • Step 3: Learn about attributes in a parse tree. Attributes are values associated with the nodes in the parse tree.
  • Step 4: Focus on synthesized attributes. Synthesized attributes are values that are calculated based on the values of the child nodes.
  • Step 5: Conclude that synthesized attributes depend on the information from the child nodes to determine their own value.
