387 Description
388 -----------
390 The parser's interface is different than usual: the function addtoken()
391 must be called for each token in the input. This makes it possible to
392 turn it into an incremental parsing system later. The parsing system
393 constructs a parse tree as it goes.
395 A parsing rule is represented as a Deterministic Finite-state Automaton
396 (DFA). A node in a DFA represents a state of the parser; an arc represents
397 a transition. Transitions are either labeled with terminal symbols or
398 with non-terminals. When the parser decides to follow an arc labeled
399 with a non-terminal, it is invoked recursively with the DFA representing
400 the parsing rule for that as its initial state; when that DFA accepts,
401 the parser that invoked it continues. The parse tree constructed by the
402 recursively called parser is inserted as a child in the current parse tree.
404 The DFA's can be constructed automatically from a more conventional
405 language description. An extended LL(1) grammar (ELL(1)) is suitable.
406 Certain restrictions make the parser's life easier: rules that can produce
407 the empty string should be outlawed (there are other ways to put loops
408 or optional parts in the language). To avoid the need to construct
409 FIRST sets, we can require that all but the last alternative of a rule
410 (really: arc going out of a DFA's state) must begin with a terminal
411 symbol.
413 As an example, consider this grammar:
415 expr: term (OP term)*
416 term: CONSTANT | '(' expr ')'
418 The DFA corresponding to the rule for expr is:
420 ------->.---term-->.------->
423 \----OP----/
425 The parse tree generated for the input a+b is:
427 (expr: (term: (NAME: a)), (OP: +), (term: (NAME: b)))
