Chapter 3, Problem 16RQ
Explanation of Solution
Syntactic and semantic domains in denotational semantics:
Denotational semantics is related to definition of a mathematical object and a function that is used to map he instances of language entity (variables) onto instances of mathematical object. As the objects in mathematics are speedily defined, so they are closely related and model the exact meaning of their corresponding entities.
Manipulating mathematical objects and model is easier than making changes in the
