Hi all,


I am doing a term paper on "Parsng Non-LR(k) Grammars with
YACC". The only example I have seen about ambigious grammars that
can't be parsed with YACC was C++. I was wondering if some of you,
compiler experts, out there can give me some examples of ambigious
grammars from other languages such as "Tcl, Perl, Python, SmallTalk,
Sather, Eiffel, Java, ... etc" that YACC can't parse. I'm not sure if
the grammars of all the languages I listed above can be parsed with
YACC!


Please reply via e-mail and if people are interested I will post a
summary.


Thanks a lot in advance.


Regards,
Qusay
