The theory of left factored languages: Part 1*

D. Wood §

Courant Institute, 251 Mercer Street, New York, USA

Left factored grammars and languages are introduced and their relevance to syntax-directed top-down analysers is discussed. A number of results concerning these languages are proved, including the decidability of left factored grammars. Finally a number of open problems are posed.


Received February 1969.
