rjzhb/stanford-lagunita-cs1-compilers-grading-scripts

This repository is a backup collection of grading scripts for Stanford's online compilers course. The scripts are normally downloaded from a Stanford server, but that server started blocking access, returning a "forbidden" error. Someone grabbed the files before the block happened and put them here so students can still get them. These scripts are used to automatically check whether a student's compiler project works correctly. In a compilers course, students build programs that translate code, for example, turning source code into something a computer can run. Each assignment (called "PA1," "PA2," etc.) has its own grading script that tests the student's compiler against expected results, giving them feedback on whether their implementation is correct. The main users are people taking Stanford's compilers course on the Lagunita platform. If you're working through the assignments and need to verify your work before submitting, these scripts let you run the same checks the course uses. Without them, you'd have no way to test your code against the official standard before turning it in. One thing worth noting: only the first assignment's grading script was downloaded directly from Stanford before the server block. The rest were collected from other people's public repositories, which means they might not be the exact official versions. The README acknowledges this uncertainty and suggests that if a script doesn't seem right, you could try tracking down alternatives yourself.
