Hi,


> -What level of maths one needs to know to understand compiler technology?
        I wrote my first parser generator (LL) when 17 years old... my level was
one of a french bachelor (no sets, no other things like that).


> -Does compiler technology books presume university level maths?
Yes somewhat, but theory is not really necessary




> -What books would you recommend?
the first generator I done was simply when reading the Kerninghan & Richie
:)
I used the "Dragon book" later.




> -What other sources would you recommend (e.g web pages)?
simply look in this news group time to time :)
