The phrase "In computing..." has been removed, as it implies a greater ubiquity of the term "packrat parser" than has yet been evidenced in the literture. This is a fairly recent advancement.

Figure in section "Syntax"[edit]

The "example" subsection ends with a figure in the middle of the text. This figure should be put properly in a figure box and referenced (or not) in the text Cellomario (talk) 12:42, 7 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Overall a very well written page, especially the part about memoization techniques. The only suggestion that I can make is that the average reader would benefit from a more divulgative approach, both in the text and in the references Cellomario (talk) 13:01, 7 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Review[edit]

The article is clear and well written. The main aspects of the topic are understandable by someone with no particular expertise in the area. Fdrc.Mtll (talk) 14:31, 7 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Review[edit]

The description of the Packrat parser is very detailed and provides a useful example to understand the underlying algorithm.
