Functional Description
Objective: To enable fully context-free general parsing using a parser combinator library (including allowing left recursion and arbitrary context-sensitive disambiguation).
Impact: Meerkat explores algorithmic advances in context-free general parsing (based on the GLL parsing algorithm and memoized continuations) in the context of a scala parsing combinator library. This library uniquely combines the worst-case execution time guarantees of GLL with the flexibility of parsing combinators. [47]
