Parsing, where can I learn about it
lex, parsing
Solution
If you want to get "emotional" about the subject, pick up a copy of "The Dragon Book." It is usually the text in a compiler design course. It will definitely meet your need "learn more about lexical analysis and parsers" as well as a bunch of other fun stuff!
IMH(umble)O, save yourself an arm and/or leg and buy an older edition - it will fill your information desires.
Problem
I've been given a job of 'translating' one language into another. The source is too flexible (complex) for a simple line by line approach with regex. Where can I go to learn more about lexical analysis and parsers?
