Parsing
The basis of compilers, interpreters, evaluators, etc.
More on Parsing:
- Parsing: (00) Some sample code to refer to—Some code you can run, compile, and consult as go through the tutorial
- Parsing: (01) Background—What is this parsing stuff all about?
- Parsing: (02) Formal Language Specifications—How do we write the rules of a language? (FSAs, CFGs, etc.)
- Parsing: (03) What is parsing?—The general and specific sense of the word, and explanation of three phases: tokenization, parsing, evaluation
- Parsing: (04) Tokenization—Context Free Grammars, EBNF, and Abstract Syntax Trees
- Parsing: (05) Parsing, Grammars and ASTs—Context Free Grammars, EBNF, and Abstract Syntax Trees
- Parsing: (06) Evaluation Phase—The specific phase where we apply grammar productions and construct an AST
- Parsing: (07) Syntax vs. Semantic Errors—The formal definition of the difference
This series of articles is here to support programming assignments based on parsing. The series presents some of the basic concepts that are used in parsers and interpreters.
It is not intended as a full treatment of those topics, but rather as “just enough” material to help you complete a programming assignment that involves parsing of arithmetic expressions. We do not expect you to be familiar with these topics already, so we are providing a brief overview in this tutorial.
For the “rest of the story”, you’ll need to wait for later courses such as:
Acknowledgments: this series or articles is joint work, a collaboration between Kyle Dewey and Phill Conrad.
