Berkeley Yacc owes much to the unflagging efforts of Keith Bostic.
|
||
|
His badgering kept me working on it long after I was ready to quit.
|
||
|
|
||
|
Berkeley Yacc is based on the excellent algorithm for computing LALR(1)
|
||
|
lookaheads developed by Tom Pennello and Frank DeRemer. The algorithm is
|
||
|
described in their almost impenetrable article in TOPLAS 4,4.
|
||
|
|
||
|
Finally, much of the credit for the latest version must go to those
|
||
|
who pointed out deficiencies of my earlier releases. Among the most
|
||
|
prolific contributors were

||
|
