Oh okay I didn't know that. Thanks for the information.
I tried that but nothing happened.
Any ideas why this might be the case?

No, not the *system* browser, PetitParser has its own browser:

In a workspace, just write

PPBrowser new

then "DoIt", and a PetitParser browser opens: It is a very beautiful tool, and 
powerful at that! Especially there is a graphical version which shows your 
grammar...

I am not sure what you mean Alain. Using the system browser to read what ?

Personnally, I found the browser very useful, so read on until you come to the 
marvels of

PPBrowser new

Your life will never be the same after that...

Thank You Benjamin,
There was no way I would figure that out on my own... its weird to represent it 
this way but its clear now.(Probably because im new to Smalltalk though)

This code
ExpressionGrammar>>term
^ add / prod
ExpressionGrammar>>add
^ prod , $+ asParser trim , term
ExpressionGrammar>>prod
^ mul / prim
ExpressionGrammar>>mul
^ prim , $*
asParser trim , prod
ExpressionGrammar>>prim
^ parens / number
ExpressionGrammar>>parens
^ $( asParser trim , term , $) asParser trim

is not a code to evaluate in a workspace.
It the representation we use to express the implementation of a method
By example

ExpressionGrammar>>term
^ add / prod

means that on class ExpressionGrammar, you need to add a method named term with 
source code
^ add / prod


So, you can either use a method browser to do it, or programatically do it by 
doing:

ExpressionGrammar compile: 'term
^ add / prod'

But this method is a bit ad hoc.

:)
Hope it helps ;)

Hello Everyone

I was going over PetitParser part on the pharo by example book. 
http://pharobooks.gforge.inria.fr/PharoByExampleTwo-Eng/latest/PetitParser.pdf

It was all going good until page 11.
Script 1.19is for creating the class so this was fine. You get an 
ExpressionGrammar class with all the needed variables, but what about script 
1.20?

Where does this script go? I understand what the code does. It is describing a 
grammar for mathematical expressions by defining what everything is and the 
rules of the grammar. I am not sure where shall I put this script to run it. In 
earlier examples I was using the workspace.

Any help is much appreciated.
Mohammad
