Since version 3.9, cPython has used a PEG parser, replacing the sort-of-LL(1) parser that had sustained it until then.
Come and learn how you can use a PEG parser to solve problems in your projects, with an example using the parsimonious package.
In this session we will build up a PEG grammar, and a matching compiler, learning some of the common patterns and pitfalls, and how sometimes a Domain Specific Language is the best tool for the job.
