Description
|
|
-----------
|
|
|
|
Input is a grammar in extended BNF (using * for repetition, + for
|
|
at-least-once repetition, [] for optional parts, | for alternatives and
|
|
() for grouping). This has already been parsed and turned into a parse
|
|
tree.
|
|
|
|
Each rule is considered as a regular expression in its own right.
|
|
It is turned into a Non-deterministic Finite Automaton (NFA), which
|
|
is then turned into a Deterministic Finite Automaton (DFA), which is then
|
|
optimized to reduce the number of states. See [Aho&Ullman 77] chapter 3,
|
|
or similar compiler books (this technique is more often used for lexical
|
|
analyzers).
|
|
|
|
The DFA's are used by the parser as parsing tables in a special way
|
|
that's probably unique. Before they are usable, the FIRST sets of all
|
|
non-terminals are computed.
