LL be {parse}d without {backtrack}ing. The first L stands for Left-to-right scan, the second for Leftmost derivation. Often found in the form LL(k) where k is the number of {token}s of {look-ahead} required when parsing a sentence of the language. In particular, LL(1) is a fairly restrictive class of grammar, but allows simple {top-down} parsing (e.g. {recursive-descent}) to be used without wasteful {backtracking}. A number of programming languages are LL(1) (or close). (1995-10-30) | |
