A translation approach is described which allows one to extend the syntax and semantics of a given high-level base language by the use of a new formalism called a syntaxmacro. Syntax-macros define string transformations based on syntactic elements of the base language. Two types of macros are discussed, and examples are given of their use. The conditional generation of macros based on options and alternatives recognized by the scan are also described.
A brief history of the $oto controversy (retention or deletion of the $oto statement) is presented. After considering some of the theoretical and practical aspects of the problem, a summary of arguments both for and against the $oto is given.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
