I can't understand the statement  "It is best not  to set k". Say there are
left factoring opportunities, which we won't come to know, unless it is
thrown as an error(after setting k)...

I think, you are assuming that the grammar cannot be left factored further.
Or are you saying there is no difference in performance between LL(*) and
LL(1)? Please clarify.

Thanks,
