Considere a seguinte gramática atributiva:

s symbol 1 # symbol 2 {  
        s. val = symbol 1. val + symbol 2. val
        symbol 1. x = 1
        symbol 2. x = 1
      }  
symbol 1 symbol 2 dig {  
        symbol 2. x = symbol 1. x * 5
        symbol 1.val = symbol 2.val + dig.val * symbol 1.x
      }  
symbol dig {  
        symbol.val = dig.val * symbol.x
      }  


O elemento lexical dig representa um dígito de 0 a 9, e o seu atributo val representa o valor numérico correspondente.

  1. Represente a àrvore semântica para a entrada 328#37.
  2. Apresente uma gramática atributiva equivalente que apenas contenha atributos sintetizados.

Solution

Semantic tree and dependency graph

"x" is an inherited attribute (propagation in blue); "val" is a synthesized attribute (propagation in red).

Temporary handwritten solution.

Attribute grammar using only synthesized attributes

We start by noting that the semantic computed by the previous grammar corresponds to base 5-like numbering (although the digits do not belong to base 5).

The new grammar is trivial to write (_1 and _2 are subscripts to differentiate instances of "symbol"):

s 	 -> symbol_1 # symbol_2  { s.val = symbol_1.val + symbol_2.val } 
symbol_1 -> symbol_2 dig 	 { symbol_1.val = symbol_2.val * 5 + dig.val }
symbol 	 -> dig                  { symbol.val = dig.val }

"val" is a synthesized attribute (propagation in red).
