DRAGON Semantic Checklist ========================= [X] 1. Semantic rules for Scoping [X] 1.1. Local objects cannot be declared more than once [X] 1.2. Local objects hide non-local objects with the same name [X] 1.3. Non-local objects should be visible from inner scopes (unless a local object of the same name exists) [X] 1.4. Function and procedure names exist in the scope they are defined (and not in their own scopes) [X] 1.5. Local objects cease to exist once their scopes cease to exist [X] 2. Semantic rules for Expressions [X] 2.1. Expressions return typed-values [X] 2.2. Objects must be declared before they used in expressions [X] 2.3. Objects of different types cannot appear in the same expression (no type promotions) [ ] 3. Semantic rules for Statements [ ] 3.1. Statements do not return values [ ] 3.2. The test expression for IF-THEN, IF-THEN-ELSE, WHILE-DO must be Boolean-valued; note that the Boolean type must be implicitly defined [X] 3.3. The ELSE clause always binds to the closest IF (resolution of the dangling ELSE problem) [X] 3.4. The variable type in FOR-DO must match the types of lower bound and upper bound expressions [X] 4. Semantic rules for Arrays [X] 4.1. Non-integer valued expressions cannot be used for indexing arrays [ ] 5. Semantic rules for Functions [ ] 5.1. Function calls return values of type Integer or Real [ ] 5.2. Function must contain a "return" statement within its own body; this is of the form: := [X] 5.3. Functions must accept exactly the same number of arguments as is declared in its header, with the correct sequence of types [X] 5.4. Functions are not allowed to update the value of nonlocal objects (via assignment statements) [X] 6. Semantic rules for Procedures [X] 6.1. Procedure calls do not return values [X] 6.2. Procedures must accept exactly the same number of arguments as is declared in its header, with the correct sequence of types
