# Lex Flex Yacc Bison

Syntax highlighting for Lex, Flex, Yacc and Bison.

This extension is based on these extensions:

1. [Lex/Flex](https://github.com/LunicLynx/vscode-lex)

2. [Yacc/Bison](https://github.com/SE2Dev/vscode-yacc)

![Example](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/faustinoaq/vscode-lex-flex-yacc-bison/master/images/example.png)

## Overview

A compiler or interpreter for a programming language is often decomposed into two parts:

1. Read the source program and discover its structure.

2. Process this structure, e.g. to generate the target program.

`Lex` and `Yacc` can generate program fragments that solve the first task.

The task of discovering the source structure again is decomposed into subtasks:

1. Split the source file into tokens (Lex).

2. Find the hierarchical structure of the program (Yacc).
