Parsers
Learning about parsers⚑
Parsers are a whole world. I kind of feel a bit lost right now and I'm searching for good books on the topic. So far I've found:
Pros: - Pleasant to read - Doesn't use external tools, you implement it from scratch. - Multiple format: EPUB, PDF, web - You can read it for free - Cute drawings <3
Cons: - Code snippets are on Java and C - Doesn't use external tools, you implement it from scratch - It's long
- Compilers: Principles, Techniques, and Tools by Aho, Alfred V. & Monica S. Lam & Ravi Sethi & Jeffrey D. Ullman
Pros: - EPUB
Cons: - Code snippets are on C++
- Parsing Techniques: A Practical Guide by Dick Grune and Ceriel J.H Jacobs
Pros: - Gives an overview of many grammars and parsers
Cons: - Only in PDF - It's long - Too focused on the theory, despite the name xD
