I am not a C compiler person.

I and my classmate were invited
by a lecturer Dr. Hung of City
University of Hong Kong to modify
a simple C compiler do something
decades.

But the project had never quite
taken off.

Later, we both as B.Sc. graduates
were admitted into M.Sc. course
in the university.

Years later, Dr. Hung died of
cancer suddenly after being
accused of a crime.

I still keep the red book
Compiler Design in C
published by Prentice Hall. :)
