Technical details

When the code is being read, it is processed by lexical analyzer in order to tokenize it (split to separate meaningful words). After tokenization, the syntax analyzer tries to determine the syntax structure of the code. If the syntax structure doesn’t comply with the language specification, the code is considered ill-formed.
