Talk:Parse EBNF: Difference between revisions

(Need to better define the task)
Line 5:
 
The task wording is somewhat sloppy. A parser could be for a (EBNF) grammar, not (plural) grammars. For grammars there can be a parser generator. The existing examples in fact build a parser for a particular grammar, and they don't use EBNF at all. May be task should be renamed as "Simple calculator parser"?[[User:Avmich|Avmich]] 20:30, 22 April 2011 (UTC)
 
== EBNF parser or parser for the given EBNF grammar? ==
 
Is the task to write a parser that takes an EBNF grammar as input? That's how the task description sounds for me, but all implementation examples don't do this..
Or is the task to write a parser for the given EBNF grammar? Then the description should be clarified and the title changed.
None of the examples parses the EBNF grammar.
