SORCERER SORCERER is suitable for translation problems lying between those solved by {code generator} generators and by full source-to-source translator generators. SORCERER generates simple, flexible, top-down, tree {parser}s that, in contrast to code generators, may execute actions at any point during a tree walk. SORCERER accepts {extended BNF} notation, allows {predicate}s to direct the tree walk with {semantic} and {syntactic} context information, and does not rely on any particular intermediate form, parser generator, or other pre-existing application. SORCERER is included in the {Purdue Compiler-Construction Tool Set}. Version: 1.00B {(ftp://marvin.ecn.purdue.edu/pub/pccts/sorcerer/)}.

Sorcerer from the Latin sortiarius, one who casts lots, or one who tells the lot of others. (See {DIVINATION}.) In Dan. 2:2 it is the rendering of the Hebrew mekhashphim, i.e., mutterers, men who professed to have power with evil spirits. The practice of sorcery exposed to severest punishment (Mal. 3:5; Rev. 21:8; 22:15). | |
