# PetitParser and PetitCompiler for Smalltalk/X

## PetitParser
|
|

|
|

*Grammars for programming languages are traditionally specified statically.
|
|
9 |
They are hard to compose and reuse due to ambiguities that inevitably arise.
|
|
10 |
**PetitParser** combines ideas from scannerless parsing, parser combinators,
|
|
11 |
parsing expression grammars and packrat parsers to model grammars and parsers
|
|
12 |
as objects that can be reconfigured dynamically.*

## PetitCompiler
|
|
17 |
|
|
18 |
**PetitCompiler** compiles regular PetitParser grammars into an equivalent top-down
|
|
19 |
parser implemented in Smalltalk. The compiled parser is significantly faster than
|
|
20 |
PetitParser based one.
