Compiler/Verifying syntax

From Rosetta Code
Compiler/Verifying syntax is a draft programming task. It is not yet considered ready to be promoted as a complete task, for reasons that should be found in its talk page.

Verifying Syntax
A Syntax Analyzer that verifies a token stream,
outputs a string "true" if the token stream matches the grammar requirement,
outputs a string "false" if the token stream does not match the grammar.

Task
The program reads input from a file of token stream,
reads it and outputs a string "true" if the token stream matches the grammar,
outputs a string "false" and error messages if the token stream does not match the grammar,
based on the grammar below. The grammar is written in Extended Backus-Naur Form (EBNF).

Go

If "and", "or", "not" and "=" are replaced by the corresponding symbols: "&&", "||", "!" and "==", then the task grammar is a subset of Go's own grammar - operator precedence and identifier construction are the same.

After making the appropriate substitutions, we can therefore use the parser in Go's standard library to verify whether the statements are valid or not. As expressions cannot be statements in Go, we simply parse the latter as expressions.

However, before applying the parser, we first need to ensure that the expressions don't include any characters (including non-ASCII) or usages thereof which Go would otherwise permit. Note that it's not necessary to specifically check for "++" and "--" as these are statements in Go and can't appear in expressions anyway.

In particular, after substitutions, "= not", "+ not" etc. would be allowed by the Go parser so we need to exclude them. Curiously, the Go parser allows something like "2 < 3 < 4" even though it doesn't compile. We need therefore to exclude that also (see Talk page).

jq

Works with: jq

Also works with gojq, the Go implementation of jq

This entry uses the PEG (Parsing Expression Grammar) formalism to transform the given grammar to a jq verification program by a simple process that amounts to transcription.

For example, in the rule for `primary`, the alternation

   Identifier | Integer

becomes the jq expression:

   Identifer // Integer

The transcription process is not completely trivial as jq requires definitions be ordered and perhaps nested to satisfy a "define-before-use" rule. In the present case, since `primary` and `expr` are defined circularly, we define `primary` as an inner function of `expr`.

This PEG-to-jq transcription process is described in detail at [1].

The following presentation uses jq's support for regular expressions for the sake of simplicity, brevity and efficiency. For example, the grammar rule:

   Digit        =         "0" | "1" | "2" | "3" | "4" | "5" | "6" | "7" | "8" | "9" ;

becomes the jq program:

  def Digit:  parse("[0-9]");

where `parse` is a utility function defined in the library of PEG-oriented functions in the first subsection below.

The jq program presented here works on character strings and textual files, and hence the use of `ws` (for whitespace) in the program. Since `ws` is defined here to make whitespace optional, it might be desirable to modify the program to require whitespace (e.g. using the utility function `_`) in certain places instead. </syntaxhighlight>

Generic PEG Library

The jq module at Category:Jq/peg.jq can be included by copying it to a file, and adding an `include` statement to top of the main program, e.g. as follows:

include "peg" {search: "."};

The Grammar

def expr:
  def Digit        :  parse("[0-9]");
  
  def Letter       :  parse("[a-zA-Z]");
  
  def Identifier   :  Letter | star(Letter // Digit // literal("_"));
  
  def Integer      :  plus(Digit);
  
  def primary      :  ws
                      | (Identifier
                        // Integer
                        // (literal("(") | expr | literal(")"))
                        // literal("true")
                        // literal("false"))
		      | ws;
  
  def expr_level_6 :  primary | star((literal("*") // literal("/")) | primary) ; 
  def expr_level_5 :  expr_level_6 | star((literal("+") // literal("-")) | expr_level_6) ; 
  def expr_level_4 :  ws | optional(literal("not")) | expr_level_5 | optional(parse("[=<]") | expr_level_5) ;
  def expr_level_3 :  expr_level_4 | star(literal("and") | expr_level_4) ; 
  def expr_level_2 :  expr_level_3 | star(literal("or")  | expr_level_3) ; 

  ws | expr_level_2 | ws; 

def stmt:
  {remainder: .} | expr | eos;

        "2 < (3 < 4)",
        "2 < foobar - 3 < 4",
        "2 < foobar and 3 < 4",
        "4 * (32 - 16) + 9 = 73",
        "235 76 + 1",
        "true or false = not true",
        "true or false = (not true)",
        "not true or false = false",
        "not true = false",
        "a + b = not c and false",

        "été = false",
        "i++",
        "j & k",
        "l or _m"
    ];

# For ease of comparison with the Go output, simply emit `true` or `false`
go[]
| (stmt | true) // false

Invocation: jq -nr -f compiler-verifying-syntax.jq

Output:

The same sequence of `true` and `false` values as at Go.
