Next | Higher-Order Parsing | 33 |
Sorry to keep harping on this, but I think it's important
By providing a few interchangeable parts, we enable not only powerful parsers
But ways to build tools to build even more powerful parsers
Since the tools themselves are simple, it's easy to make new ones
A small amount of effort put into new tools pays off big
Functional programming style enables use of functions as modular components
Functions like lookfor and conc manufacture other functions as needed
