yagg::Tutorial 1.4001

yagg::Tutorial is a Perl module that contains a tutorial for yagg.

SYNOPSIS

# To use the generator
./yagg -m nonterminals.yg terminals.lg
./output/progs/generate 5

This tutorial will show you how to use yagg, by way of two examples. In the first example, we create a simple logical expression generator from scratch. In the second example, we create a more sophisticated logical expression generator from existing parser/lexer input files, such as those used by YACC/Bison and LEX/FLEX. These examples, plus another more sophisticated fault tree generator are included with the distribution in the examples/ directory.

It is assumed that the reader knows a little about formal grammars. Ideally, the reader would have some experience writing grammars for input to parser generators like YACC and Bison.
