desugaring

the compiler performs syntactic desugaring to transform macros into simpler code.

automatic desugaring helps developers write cleaner, more expressive programs.

understanding the desugaring process is essential for language implementation.

the desugaring phase converts syntactic sugar into core language features.

desugaring rules define how shorthand syntax maps to fundamental constructs.

modern compilers apply desugaring optimizations during compilation.

the desugaring mechanism preserves semantic equivalence while simplifying syntax.

lisp dialects often use desugaring to implement special forms.

desugaring algorithms transform pattern matching into simpler conditional expressions.

the desugaring module handles expansion of user-defined syntax.

programmers can inspect the desugaring output to understand macro expansion.

desugaring enables syntactic transformations without changing program behavior.
