@defgroup YAPSyntax YAP Syntax
@ingroup YAPProgramming
@{

We will describe the syntax of YAP at two levels. We first will
describe the syntax for Prolog terms. In a second level we describe
the \a tokens from which Prolog \a terms are
built.

@defgroup Formal_Syntax Syntax of Terms
@ingroup Syntax
@{

Below, we describe the syntax of YAP terms from the different
classes of tokens defined above. The formalism used will be <em>BNF</em>,
extended where necessary with attributes denoting integer precedence or
operator type.

---->     subterm(1200)   end_of_term_marker

 subterm(N) ---->     term(M)         [M <= N]

 term(N)    ---->     op(N, fx) subterm(N-1)
             |        op(N, fy) subterm(N)
             |        subterm(N-1) op(N, xfx) subterm(N-1)
             |        subterm(N-1) op(N, xfy) subterm(N)
             |        subterm(N) op(N, yfx) subterm(N-1)
             |        subterm(N-1) op(N, xf)
             |        subterm(N) op(N, yf)

 term(0)   ---->      atom '(' arguments ')'
             |        '(' subterm(1200)  ')'
             |        '{' subterm(1200)  '}'
             |        list
             |        string
             |        number
             |        atom
             |        variable

 arguments ---->      subterm(999)
             |        subterm(999) ',' arguments

 list      ---->      '[]'
             |        '[' list_expr ']'

 list_expr ---->      subterm(999)
             |        subterm(999) list_tail

 list_tail ---->      ',' list_expr
             |        ',..' subterm(999)
             |        '|' subterm(999)
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Notes:

   + \a op(N,T) denotes an atom which has been previously declared with type
      \a T and base precedence \a N.

  + Since ',' is itself a pre-declared operator with type \a xfy and
       precedence 1000, is \a subterm starts with a '(', \a op must be
       followed by a space to avoid ambiguity with the case of a functor
       followed by arguments, e.g.:

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+ (a,b)        [the same as '+'(','(a,b)) of arity one]
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
      versus

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+(a,b)         [the same as '+'(a,b) of arity two]
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

  +
In the first rule for term(0) no blank space should exist between
\a atom and '('.

  +
Each term to be read by the YAP parser must end with a single
dot, followed by a blank (in the sense mentioned in the previous
paragraph). When a name consisting of a single dot could be taken for
the end of term marker, the ambiguity should be avoided by surrounding the
dot with single quotes.

/*
 * Description:
 *
 * parser:     produces a prolog term from an array of tokens
 *
 * parser usage: the parser takes its input from an array of token descriptions
 * addressed by the global variable 'tokptr' and produces a Term as result. A
 * macro 'NextToken' should be defined in 'yap.h' for advancing 'tokptr' from
 * one token to the next. In the distributed version this macro also updates
 * a variable named 'toktide' for keeping track of how far the parser went
 * before failling with a syntax error. The parser should be invoked with
 * 'tokptr' pointing to the first token. The last token should have type
 * 'eot_tok'. The parser return either a Term. Syntactic errors are signaled
 * by a return value 0. The parser builds new terms on the 'global stack' and
 * also uses an auxiliary stack pointed to by 'AuxSp'. In the distributed
 * version this auxiliary stack is assumed to grow downwards. This
 * assumption, however, is only relevant to routine 'ParseArgs', and to the
 * variable toktide. conclusion: set tokptr pointing to first token set AuxSp
 * Call Parse
 *
 * VSC: Working whithout known bugs in 87/4/6
 *
 * LD: -I or +I evaluated by parser 87/4/28

 * LD: parser extended 87/4/28
