Dear Cafe, I am trying to implement[1] parsec in go using the "Monadic Parser Combinators" paper [2] . I've been able to implement "plus" "bind" and "many" While doing the implementation - I looked at bind closely
bind :: Parser a -> (a -> Parser b) -> Parser b p `bind` f = \inp -> concat [f v inp' | (v,inp') <- p inp] I wondered if the result needs the complete list - wouldn't just the first successful value suffice? Perhaps - p `bind` f = \inp -> take 1 $ concat [f v inp' | (v,inp') <- p inp] Will this miss out matches?
