Abstract

This paper attempts to be a complete description, from the implementor's viewpoint, of the basic lexing and parsing requirements of the Modula-2 language. The lexical structure is described informally, while the syntax is specified formally by an LALR(1) grammar expressed in BNF (Backus-Naur Form).Further information is available in the Modula-2 language definition [1].
