Question 1

What is the primary function of the FOLLOW set in SLR parsing?

  • Determine shift actions
  • Guide reduction actions based on next terminals
  • Map transitions between states

πŸ’‘ Hint: Remember its role in deciding the legality of reductions.

Question 2

True or False: A shift/reduce conflict implies that there are two valid reductions for the same input.

Challenge Problems

Push your limits with challenges.

Question 1

Construct an SLR parsing table for the given grammar: E -> E + E | E * E | id. Identify any conflicts.

πŸ’‘ Hint: Focus on how items overlap and lead to ambiguous actions.

Question 2

Given the grammar below, identify the potential shift/reduce conflicts and suggest modifications to resolve them: A -> A a | b.

πŸ’‘ Hint: Look for common prefixes and consider how to factor or eliminate recursion.
