I have trouble understanding chapter 6 especially the grammar part and implementing the token functions expressions(), Token::get etc. I don't know how expressions work through the grammar; simple expressions like 2+3 I get it but something complex like (2*3)-(4*2) confuses me. I've read this chapter countless of times but still couldn't get it. That being said I also don't know how to solve question 3 and don't know where to start. Anyone can help guide me through this? .

I would see this thread there is a good discussion of this issue:

Also have you seen this blog it is very good and goes over a lot of the stuff. It has helped me find some errors in Chapter 6 code that I hadn't seen before:

The main thing is, you will not understand this by reading the chapter. You absolutely have to work through the code. Unfortunately, he doesn't actually provide a full working program anywhere, but you can find them online, or tweak the one he provides at his site for the Ch6 drill...
