@Jo Thank you, that was quite enlightening. Now as to the parsers, they are 
not exactly parsers. We do have rudimentary parsers for Mathematica and 
Maxima in sympy right now. If you take a look at their code, you can see 
that they are not CFGs but simple RE rules. They perform very good under 
almost all the circumstances (although I encountered a bug in the 
Mathematica module and fixed it). The point is that this functionality 
allows us to embed small snippets already written in other languages. So 
the aim here right now is to generate a parser(or a converter as you may 
call it) that converts that snippet to equivalent python/sympy code. After 
that is successfully done, we can move onto a generic parser framework that 
can convert entire programs to sympy equivalent code. And I was going for a 
parser generator framework for sympy that generates a parser, not just a 
parser itself. 

Thanks,
Aditya
