What are the disadvantages of operator precedence parsing?
Detailed Explanation
- It is hard to handle tokens like the minus sign, which has two different precedences.
- Since the relationship between a grammar for the language being parsed and the operator – precedence parser itself is tenuous, one cannot always be sure the parser accepts exactly the desired language.
- Only a small class of grammars can be parsed using operator precedence techniques.
