Hi there.


I've been studying the conversion method described in [1] that proposes a
scheme to transform LR(k) grammars to LR(1), but it does not
give a formula to indicate how big can a grammar G' become, given the
application of the method to an input grammar G.


Does anyone know such formula?


Is there another method proposed in the literature? I'm interested in
converting LR(2) grammars to the corresponding LR(1).
