Hi there!
I'm new to Parrot but reading from your slides if I understood correctly:
- PGE parses input according to a grammar and produces a derivation tree.
- TGE transforms the parse tree into an abstract syntax tree.
With that said I have some questions (i'm sorry if they were answered
already somewhere):
- Whats the point of using PGE+TGE over the good old LEX+YACC besides the
better regexps?
- Can I use PGE skipping TGE?
- PAST seems just fine as a concept but isn't it useless if I can target
directly to POST with minor fuss?
Good luck for today's presentation :)
Best regards,
João Cruz Morais
