Title: Converting Arithmetic Expressions to Assembly
Post by: UniverseIsASimulation on February 24, 2018, 06:50:31 AM
Hey, guys!
New here. I've just made a simple web-app that attempts to convert arithmetic expressions to i486-compatible assembly:
Arithmetic expression to assembly converter (http://flatassembler.000webhostapp.com/compiler.html)
I've tried to test it (using Flat Assembler), and to me it seems like it produces correct results. However, I am not a professional programmer, so I would like to hear from some experts.

This is a useful thing! Please write something else for converting integer arithmetic expressions... (Comments in Slovenian?)

QuoteWhat's behind, shunting yard?
There is no codebehind. It's just a few recursive algorithms implemented in 600 lines of JavaScript, you can see all by looking at the source code. Shunting Yard would be faster, but it would also be harder to implement. The difference isn't really visible on arithmetic expressions, which are always relatively short.
QuoteThis is a useful thing!
Yes. And C compilers are even more useful, for the same reason.
QuotePlease write something else for converting integer arithmetic expressions
That wouldn't be easy. The algorithms I've made assume the existence of a stack (like the FPU-stack). I could make a stack of the general-purpose registers (eax,ebx,ecx,edx,edi,esi...), but that would be extremely inefficient. I could make a stack in RAM, but then it would be much like using a C compiler (it would be very hard to reassemble a program compiled for MacOS to run in DOS).
QuoteComments in Slovenian?
Close enough. They are in Croatian. Google Translate usually does a good job translating from Croatian to English.

Anyway, can you confirm that my web-app produces the correct code? Again, I've only tested it a little in Flat Assembler.

Sounds like an interesting tool, I would not worry about what its written in as it produces code, not runs it. I note you mentioned .486 compatible instructions and if you are catering for very old OS versions and hardware it would make sense but if you are addressing anything later in either 32 or 64 bit software, there may be better choices in instructions.

It's a JavaScript file (around 600 lines) intended to be embedded on a web-page (like one I linked to). I am not sure how I could post it here.
I think the webpage is up right now and that it will be up for the next 2 hours. Then it will be down for an hour, and then it will be up for 23 hours.
Maybe you can download it and post it here, if you think that's a good idea.

Download the zip file I attached above, and just double-click on the only file in the archive. Astonishingly, it produces fine assembler code. I have not tested it thoroughly, but this is obviously a fine project, compliments.

Blaze is an open-source, high-performance C++ math library for dense and sparse arithmetic. With its state-of-the-art Smart Expression Template implementation Blaze combines the elegance and ease of use of a domain-specific language with HPC-grade performance, making it one of the most intuitive and fastest C++ math libraries available.

The Blaze library offers ...

... high performance through the integration of BLAS libraries and manually tuned HPC math kernels
... vectorization by SSE, SSE2, SSE3, SSSE3, SSE4, AVX, AVX2, AVX-512, FMA, and SVML
... parallel execution by OpenMP, HPX, C++11 threads and Boost threads
... the intuitive and easy to use API of a domain specific language
... unified arithmetic with dense and sparse vectors and matrices
... thoroughly tested matrix and vector arithmetic
... completely portable, high quality C++ source code

A Complex Example
The following example is much more sophisticated. It shows the implementation of the Conjugate Gradient (CG) algorithm (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Conjugate_gradient) by means of the Blaze library:
(https://bitbucket.org/blaze-lib/blaze/wiki/images/cg.jpg)
In this example it is not important to understand the CG algorithm itself, but to see the advantage of the API of the Blaze library. In the Blaze implementation we will use a sparse matrix/dense vector multiplication for a 2D Poisson equation using NxN unknowns. It becomes apparent that the core of the algorithm is very close to the mathematical formulation and therefore has huge advantages in terms of readability and maintainability, while the performance of the code is close to the expected theoretical peak performance:
const size_t NN( N*N );

blaze::CompressedMatrix<double,rowMajor> A( NN, NN );
blaze::DynamicVector<double,columnVector> x( NN, 1.0 ), b( NN, 0.0 ), r( NN ), p( NN ), Ap( NN );
double alpha, beta, delta;

// ... Initializing the sparse matrix A

// Performing the CG algorithm
r = b - A * x;
p = r;
delta = (r,r);

for( size_t iteration=0UL; iteration<iterations; ++iteration )
{
   Ap = A * p;
   alpha = delta / (p,Ap);
   x += alpha * p;
   r -= alpha * Ap;
   beta = (r,r);
   if( std::sqrt( beta ) < 1E-8 ) break;
   p = r + ( beta / delta ) * p;
   delta = beta;
}

Wow, that's great! How did you learn C++? I've been trying to learn C++ for five years, and I am still not able to do anything in it. Good that I finally gave up and found out there are languages that are easier to learn, such as JavaScript. I've only been learning JavaScript for a few months, and I am able to do much more than I was able to after learning C++ for five years.

Anyway, my idea for a relatively large project is to make LLAP, a LISP-like Assembly Preprocessor. Namely, many, if not most of the, assembly-language preprocessors are Turing-complete. However, very few of them provide functions that are actually relevant to low-level programming. I think it would be a good idea to make a preprocessor in which it's easy (as it's in LISP) to do complicated string manipulation at the compile-time, and which also has built-in functions for converting arithmetic expressions to assembly (which can be tedious to do manually).
For instance:
(echo (compile (parseArth (tokenizeArth "sqrt(a*a+b*b)"))))
would output something like:

finit
fld dword [a]
fld dword [a]
fmulp st1,st0
fld dword [b]
fld dword [b]
fmulp st1,st0
faddp st1,st0
fsqrt
fstp dword [result]

Do you think that's a good idea? Right now, I don't know enough informatics to do it myself, and I don't have much time to learn that because I am already doing bad at school (and we don't even have informatics at school). If you think that's a good idea, I might do it after a few years.

If you want to use your code for pre-processing assembly code, you may need a standalone JS compiler (https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/7435xtz6%28v=vs.100%29.aspx). Ever thought of that?

Hello Universe----,

That is a very cool project, I have to tell you.  I am not familiar with these "S expressions?", so my question may be hopelessly naïve and even misguided.  Here it is:

How far can you extend this compiler?  For example, would it be feasible to write code (presumably S expressions) that would solve differential  equations, or even just plain vanilla linear algebra?

Regards,
Mark Allyn

Post by: UniverseIsASimulation on March 06, 2018, 07:15:10 AM
Yes, it's possible to solve the equations using the S-expressions. Emacs calculator does that. I am not planning to extend that web-app very far. I am planning to learn a language that's more suitable for those things than JavaScript is and, perhaps a few years from now, rewrite it in that language. The web-app was just a way to test whether the algorithm I've made for converting the arithmetic expressions to assembly was right.

As you may know the only way to convert a High-Level language, whatever it is, already invented or not to machine executable code is through a compiler. A compiler is a sophisticated piece of code, as you will be guessing.
Assembly language (ASM) is machine code in easy readable form. It is not as difficult to take machine code and obtain ASM by using a disassembler because there is almost 1-to-1 correspondence.
What you are trying to achieve is the associated job of a compiler AND a disassembler. Think about it, there are no shortcuts. You have in hands a major project, which can definitly not be made in javascript or in any easy-go-round language for lazy kids to show off.

As I've said, I am not a programmer. Can you break it down for me? Preferably in Croatian and using JavaScript to explain the code-related details. If you can't, then explain it in English and using some language similar to JavaScript (I think I would even be able to understand C++) to explain the code-related details.

So, if I understood you correctly, the assembly code my web-app produces can be compiled using not only FASM, but also using MASM? That's quite surprising. I've checked it and it doesn't compile in the GAS intel-syntax mode.

Not that surprising, actually. FPU code is pretty standard, it's mnemonics like fld somevar or fxch that all assemblers should treat the same way. The differences in headers and directives are much more important.

Post by: UniverseIsASimulation on March 15, 2018, 06:03:02 PM
Well, not all assemblers let you to use the syntax such as "st0" to access the stack (some require you to use the longer "ST(0)" format), and not all assemblers let you use a syntax such as "2f" to create 32-bit floats and use them as the arguments for "mov".
It compiles them the same way FASM does? A bit complicated example, if you assemble the web-app's output for "(x<0)*(-x)+(x>0)*x", does the variable "result" contain the absolute value of the variable "x"?

So, nobody here uses EMACS? Well, to be honest, neither do I. I usually use "xed" on Mac and Notepad++ on PC.

QuoteSo, nobody here uses EMACS? Well, to be honest, neither do I. I usually use "xed" on Mac and Notepad++ on PC.

So, indeed, it doesn't compile in MASM? Well, I guess it's still easier to manually convert the FASM code into the MASM code than to manually convert arithmetic expressions to assembly. Or is there a way to automatically convert the FASM code into the MASM code? Perhaps by compiling the code with FASM and then using a disassembler?

Compiling the code with FASM and then using a disassembler should work, but that's a workaround. If it was my project, I would consider two versions, but it seems you are normally working with FASM...

Maybe you can modify mine (fork it) to produce MASM-compatible code?
Just download the latest source code, I've fixed some bugs and implemented some basic error-handling since the version you posted here.

BTW, I can't find out, what do "m2m" and "fp4" mean exactly in MASM?

Sounds intriguing but right now I have absolutely no spare time...

QuoteBTW, I can't find out, what do "m2m" and "fp4" mean exactly in MASM?

m2m is mem to mem:

m2m someint32, someotherint32 basically translates to

push someotherint32
pop someint32

FP4(123.456) creates a REAL4 in the .data section. You can use it, for example, as
fld FP10(1.234567890123456789)
fsub FP4(123.456)
fmul FP8(0.1234567890123456)

What do you think about the syntax highlighting for assembly I've just added to my web-app?
Title: Re: Converting Arithmetic Expressions to Assembly
Post by: UniverseIsASimulation on November 13, 2018, 03:24:15 AM
I've put some effort into designing the way the web-app looks. Do you like it? The layout works in IE6, IE9 and IE11, and all the non-Internet-Explorer browsers I've tested it in except Safari 5, but it breaks in IE7, IE8 and IE10.

000webhost has banned me for hate speech, so I moved my website to GitHub Pages. So, the ArithmeticExpressionCompiler is now available here (https://flatassembler.github.io/compiler.html). Now it supports GNU Assembler as well as FlatAssembler. And now it can not only be run in a browser or Duktape, but also in NodeJS, the NodeJS executable is available here (https://github.com/FlatAssembler/ArithmeticExpressionCompiler/releases/download/1.1/aec.js). A relatively long example program it can compile is available here (https://raw.githubusercontent.com/FlatAssembler/ArithmeticExpressionCompiler/master/HybridSort/hsort.aec) (it's the implementation of the linearithmic-time sorting algorithm I made).
