Pinchback) Newsgroups: comp.compilers Subject: Re: Full LL(1) versus Strong LL(1)... what's the diff? Keywords: LL(1), parse Message-ID: <91074.224422REIDMP@MAINE.BITNET> Date: 16 Mar 91 03:44:22 GMT References: <1991Mar14.234735.24401@jato.jpl.nasa.gov> Sender: compilers-sender@iecc.cambridge.ma.us Reply-To: Reid M. Pinchback Organization: University of Maine System Lines: 8 Approved: compilers@iecc.cambridge.ma.us According to Fischer and LeBlanc, the language described by strong LL(1) and full LL(1) is the same, but the actual parsers themselves differ. One direct email reply stated that the difference had to do with strong LL(1) being used in cases where you had controlled ambiguity. -- Send compilers articles to compilers@iecc.cambridge.ma.us or {ima | spdcc | world}!iecc!compilers.
