Using the lexer:

The process of testing the lexer has been automated with a 'makefile'.

The make file automates 3 processes:

• make lexer: Performs 2 operations in order. It first generates a C++ code from lexer.l, and then compiles that code into an executable lexer.

• make test: Runs a set of tests via a bash script and saves the output into ./tests/lexer_outputs.

• make clean: Removes the C++ code and the executable lexer.

To compile the lexer an run the tests, run the following in your terminal:

make lexer
make test
make clean
