Description

The Trash.SDFII implementation caters for arbitrary context-free grammars. That is, even for ambiguous grammars the parser will produce a parse trees containing a concise encoding of allpossible parses. Ambiguities are represented by means of amb nodes that contain a list of possible parse trees at that point. For most applications, however, it is desirable to develop unambiguous grammars. To aid the grammar writer in detecting and solving the ambiguities, the visamb tool extracts the ambiguities from a parse tree and displays them in a readable format.
