I'm reading about conjunctive grammars and was curious where they are
used. What feature of a programming language would require the use of
a conjunctive grammar? I've seen many examples with contrived rules
and terminals and would like to see a practical example. Since many
programming languages have hacks to parse ambiguous or non CFG
grammars, what programming language constructs can be expressed using
conjunctive CFGs?
