Information Booster
1. Parse Tree:
· A graphical representation of the syntactic structure of a string according to a grammar.
· Different parse trees represent different derivations of the string.
2. Leftmost and Rightmost Derivations:
· Leftmost: Always expand the leftmost non-terminal first.
· Rightmost: Always expand the rightmost non-terminal first.
3. Ambiguity in Grammar:
· A grammar is ambiguous if a string has more than one parse tree or derivation.
· The given grammar is ambiguous for strings like ababab.
Additional Knowledge
· Unambiguous Grammar: A grammar where every valid string has a unique parse tree.
· Chomsky Normal Form (CNF): Used to simplify grammar and remove ambiguity where possible.
