Agreed - thanks Mark! If anyone is able to share the query languages you're using (the language's grammar more than the implementation), I'd be very interested (and grateful). I'm always struggling to create reports for our non-technical staff which are flexible enough to be useful but don't rely

I'd like to join the thank-you chorus -- Instaparse rocks, period. I'm using it to integrate my concordancing utility, Smyrna [1] with a POS-tagging engine for Polish originally written in C++; specifically, to parse the rules generated by the latter. I've given a talk on it this year at Lambda

Yes, instaparse is awesome. (I use it to parse the grammar definitions of my own natural language parser, which is a little funny). On Thu, Jun 12, 2014 at 4:23 PM, Daniel Kersten wrote: > I started playing with Instaparse recently too and its by far the nicest > parsing library I've used (aft

I started playing with Instaparse recently too and its by far the nicest parsing library I've used (after having used a few in C++, Java and Python over the years). It makes parsing a pleasant and fun experience :) So: Thank You Mark! On 12 June 2014 03:43, Devin Walters wrote: > I think it's

I think it's annularly understood that Mark is the bee's knees. Thanks for the fantastic, well-documented instaparse. It's saved me a *lot* of time to date, and it taught me a lot about parsers. Honorable mention to Sean Corfield for starting this thread and being such a model member of the com

Yes, kudos to Mark for a neat little library. I used it recently to parse out macro definitions and RightFax commands from a PCL5 data stream. Good stuff, that. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Clojure" group. To post to this group, send email to c

We've also used to at our company to build a query language, though not a "natural language" one. I'm curious, how are you going about making a natural language query system? Usually the problem with those is that they are not flexible enough to really be natural. On Tuesday, June 10, 2014 11:

I just wanted to post a public "Thank You!" to Mark Engelberg for his Instaparse library. https://github.com/Engelberg/instaparse We are just starting to use this at World Singles so that we can provide a "natural language" interface to our search engine, allowing our internal support
