luaparse

Implementation of various parsing algorithms for LL(1), LR(0) and LR(1) grammars in Lua.

Project Goals

• include a lexer that supports formal regex operations
  • union, concatenation, klene closure, complement
• include a parser that generates !!FAST!! LL(1) recursive descent parsers for simple grammars
• include a parser that generates more powerful LR(1) bottom up parser capable of parsing the grammar for lua
• include an example project that parses JSON
• include an example project that parses the Lua language and shortens variable names

Currently Implemented

• initial version of LL(1) recursive descent parser with prediction table generation but no parsing
