Appel 3.1, 3.3 a-c, 3.10, 3.15 (read "Yacc" as "Bison").
-
We have considered grammars with rules for
'+', '-', '*', '/', id, num and parentheses.
Expand these grammars with boolean operators (and, or, not) and
comparisons (==, <=, etc.)
in such a way that you get the usual precedens and associativity.
Use the transparency introducing an unambiguous grammar for expressions
as your starting point.
-
Show that the grammar below is LR(1), but not LALR(1), i.e., it works
making an LR(1) parser table, but something goes wrong when you make
the transition to an LALR(1) table.
Recall that the |-shorthand used below indicates four S-productions.
Remember first to introduce a new nonterminal and an eof-symbol ($).
- S -> a E a | b E b | a F b | b F a
- E -> e
- F -> e
-
By making an LR(1) parser tabel, demonstrate that the following grammar
has a shift/reduce conflict:
- S -> E$
- E -> E + E | ( E ) | num
