To extend a simple calculator to evaluate full arithmetic expressions—including those with mixed operators and parentheses—we structure the grammar in hierarchical layers, each representing a different precedence level. This ensures correct evaluation order without requiring explicit parentheses in every case. The grammar is divided into three ...

When constructing formal grammars, developers frequently encounter repetitive syntactic patterns. A typical scenario involves parsing delimiter-separated sequences, such as lists of identifiers or arithmetic expressions. Manually expanding these rules results in verbose definitions that are difficult to maintain and prone to copy-paste errors. ...

Building a lexer from scratch can be complex and error-prone. Instead, leveraging existing libraries like Logos simplifies tokenization significantly. This guide demonstrates how to integrate Logos as the lexer for a toy language parsed with LALRPOP. Consider the follownig input: var a = 42; var b = 23; # a comment print (a - b); Depandency S ...
