Hi,


Recently I cam across an article called: "GLL Parsing" by Elizabeth
Scott and Adrian Johnstone
(http://ldta.info/2009/ldta2009proceedings.pdf p. 123). I am
wondering if people have experience using this technique.


Somehow this seems to have the advantage of top-down parsing and GLR.


I also came across a recent paper: Yacc is dead by Matthew Might and
David Darais (http://arxiv.org/abs/1010.5023 ). In their paper they
argue that they find a general Cf grammar parsing method based on
parsing combinators and Brzozowski's derivative. The paper makes this
technique really seem good.


Any comments or experience with it?


yours,


Marc
