Ask HN: Contemporary Book on Packrat Parsing

2 points by stvpwrs 6 years ago · 1 comment · 1 min read


I am largely a self-taught programmer and I would like to try and understand parsers better. I am looking for something that can give a good theory and technical overview, as well as some actual implementation examples.

I’d like to try and implement the parser in Julia, but I am flexible enough to use another language that might be more common in teaching.

Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

This discourse post seems useful https://discourse.julialang.org/t/writing-a-parser-in-julia/...

Not sure about what kind of parser you're thinking about. If you like to do it in Julia, I suggest that you get on Julia Slack and Julia Discourse and get some help there.
