July 3rd Meeting: Corey Minter - Parser Combinators in Scala

[Steve]

Parser Combinators in Scala

Scala provides a library (and DSL) which allows easily adding this recursive descent parsing strategy directly in your application (no separate tools required).  You'll see how parser combinators differ from other parsing methods.  A code demo will show you how to implement a grammar then extend that into 'useful' actions.

Food and Drinks will be sponsored by TekSystems.  There will also be raffles for both eBooks and Physical books by O'Reilly, Appress and Manning, as well as a FULL LICENSE to Jetbrains Intellij Idea Ultimate Edition.

As usual we meet at 6:30 at Hacker Lab in Sacramento.  See you there!

[Tom Parker]

I hate to miss this one. I'm heading to a show tonight. Are we recording the meetings? Or just streaming?

Not sure.  I am willing to try recording if Corey is willing.  But I have yet to really figure it out.

[Brian E. Lavender]

What's the grammar?

Standard calculator demo grammar?

I wonder how well the recursive decent parser works? What optimizations
do they use?

Lately, I have been hacking Haskell. See how far I get. I still have yet
to wrap up madbomber2 too. I think I got a dose enough of C++.

"There are two ways of constructing a software design. One way is to
make it so simple that there are obviously no deficiencies. And the other
way is to make it so complicated that there are no obvious deficiencies."
