Marpa Documents use standardized parsing terms explained in this text.
Parse::Marpa::Doc::Parse_Terms is a Perl module that contains standard parsing terms from the Marpa documents. It serves as a guide for the standard vocabulary used in parsing. To make it easier to skim through, defining uses of terms are presented in boldface. If you are already comfortable with parsing terminology, you can skip this document entirely.
The module provides definitions that are consistent with some of the textbook meanings, and are therefore considered standard. However, it does not aim to cover the complete range of meanings or provide the most common meanings. Instead, the focus is on the definitions used in the Marpa documentation.
The document may be too brief for readers who are new to parsing. It is recommended that they read Mark Jason Dominus's chapter on parsing in the Perl context for an introduction. For further information, Wikipedia is a good place to start.
