Compiler courses can help you learn syntax analysis, semantic analysis, code generation, and optimization techniques. You can build skills in parsing algorithms, error handling, and implementing programming languages. Many courses introduce tools like Lex and Yacc for lexical analysis and parsing, as well as LLVM for code optimization, demonstrating how these skills are applied in creating efficient compilers and interpreters.
