25 /* Representation of the grammar rules:
26
27 NTOKENS is the number of tokens, and NVARS is the number of
28 variables (nonterminals). NSYMS is the total number, ntokens +
29 nvars.
30
31 Each symbol (either token or variable) receives a symbol number.
32 Numbers 0 to NTOKENS - 1 are for tokens, and NTOKENS to NSYMS - 1
33 are for variables. Symbol number zero is the end-of-input token.
34 This token is counted in ntokens. The true number of token values
35 assigned is NTOKENS reduced by one for each alias declaration.
36
37 The rules receive rule numbers 1 to NRULES in the order they are
38 written. More precisely Bison augments the grammar with the
39 initial rule, `$axiom: START-SYMBOL EOF', which is numbered 1, all
40 the user rules are 2, 3 etc. Each time a rule number is presented
41 to the user, we subtract 1, so *displayed* rule numbers are 0, 1,
42 2...
43
44 Internally, we cannot use the number 0 for a rule because for
45 instance RITEM stores both symbol (the RHS) and rule numbers: the
46 symbols are shorts >= 0, and rule number are stored negative.
47 Therefore 0 cannot be used, since it would be both the rule number
48 0, and the token EOF).
49
50 Actions are accessed via the rule number.
51
52 The rules themselves are described by several arrays: amongst which
53 RITEM, and RULES.
54
55 RULES is an array of struct rule_s, which members are:
56
57 RULES[R].lhs -- the symbol of the left hand side of rule R.
58
59 RULES[R].rhs -- the index in RITEM of the beginning of the portion
60 for rule R.
61
62 RULES[R].prec -- the symbol providing the precedence level of R.
63
64 RULES[R].precsym -- the symbol attached (via %prec) to give its
65 precedence to R. Of course, if set, it is equal to `prec', but we
66 need to distinguish one from the other when reducing: a symbol used
67 in a %prec is not useless.
68
69 RULES[R].assoc -- the associativity of R.
70
71 RULES[R].line -- the line where R was defined.
72
73 RULES[R].useful -- TRUE iff the rule is used (i.e., FALSE if thrown
74 away by reduce).
75
76 The right hand side is stored as symbol numbers in a portion of
77 RITEM.
78
79 The length of the portion is one greater than the number of symbols
80 in the rule's right hand side. The last element in the portion
81 contains minus R, which identifies it as the end of a portion and
82 says which rule it is for.
83
84 The portions of RITEM come in order of increasing rule number.
85 NRITEMS is the total length of RITEM. Each element of RITEM is
86 called an "item" and its index in RITEM is an item number.
87
88 Item numbers are used in the finite state machine to represent
89 places that parsing can get to.
90
91 SYMBOLS[I]->prec records the precedence level of each symbol.
92
93 Precedence levels are assigned in increasing order starting with 1
94 so that numerically higher precedence values mean tighter binding
95 as they ought to. Zero as a symbol or rule's precedence means none
96 is assigned.
97
98 Associativities are recorded similarly in SYMBOLS[I]->assoc. */
