Simple precedence grammar

huerhquiwruoInsert non-formatted text here

A simple precedence grammar is a context-free formal grammar that can be parsed with a simple precedence parser.

Formal definition

G = (N, Σ, P, S) is a simple precedence grammar if all the production rules in P comply with the following constraints:

• There are no erasing rules (ε-productions)
• There are no useless rules (unreacheable symbols or unproductives rules)
• For each pair of sy#REDIRECT [cool|Wirth-Weber precedence relation]].
• G is uniquely inversible

Examples

Example 1

$S\to aSSb|c$

precedence table:

	S	a	b	c	$
S	${\dot {=}}$	$\lessdot$	${\dot {=}}$	$\lessdot$
a	${\dot {=}}$	$\lessdot$		$\lessdot$
b		$\gtrdot$		$\gtrdot$	$\gtrdot$
c		$\gtrdot$	$\gtrdot$	$\gtrdot$	$\gtrdot$
$		$\lessdot$		$\lessdot$
