22/* representation of the grammar rules:
23
24ntokens is the number of tokens, and nvars is the number of variables
25(nonterminals). nsyms is the total number, ntokens + nvars.
26

RS
27 (the true number of token values assigned is ntokens
28 reduced by one for each alias declaration)
29

30Each symbol (either token or variable) receives a symbol number.
31Numbers 0 to ntokens-1 are for tokens, and ntokens to nsyms-1 are for
32variables. Symbol number zero is the end-of-input token. This token
33is counted in ntokens.
34
35The rules receive rule numbers 1 to nrules in the order they are written.
36Actions and guards are accessed via the rule number.
37
38The rules themselves are described by three arrays: rrhs, rlhs and
39ritem. rlhs[R] is the symbol number of the left hand side of rule R.
40The right hand side is stored as symbol numbers in a portion of
41ritem. rrhs[R] contains the index in ritem of the beginning of the
42portion for rule R.
43
44If rlhs[R] is -1, the rule has been thrown out by reduce.c
45and should be ignored.
46
47The length of the portion is one greater
48 than the number of symbols in the rule's right hand side.
49The last element in the portion contains minus R, which
50identifies it as the end of a portion and says which rule it is for.
51
52The portions of ritem come in order of increasing rule number and are
53followed by an element which is zero to mark the end. nitems is the
54total length of ritem, not counting the final zero. Each element of
55ritem is called an "item" and its index in ritem is an item number.
56
57Item numbers are used in the finite state machine to represent
58places that parsing can get to.
59
60Precedence levels are recorded in the vectors sprec and rprec.
61sprec records the precedence level of each symbol,
62rprec the precedence level of each rule.
63rprecsym is the symbol-number of the symbol in %prec for this rule (if any).
64
65Precedence levels are assigned in increasing order starting with 1 so
66that numerically higher precedence values mean tighter binding as they
67ought to. Zero as a symbol or rule's precedence means none is
68assigned.
69
70Associativities are recorded similarly in rassoc and sassoc. */
