@Ron: No. leo.md is of specialized interest -- it's for the (at present) handful of people who want to re-implement Marpa from scratch. On Tue, Nov 25, 2014 at 5:31 PM, Ron Savage wrote: > Thanx, but I've linked to about.md. Do you think I should link to leo.md > as well? > > -- > You received

@hardmath123: here are the notes on Leo 1991 I promsied. I not sure they're enough to help programmers past the hurdle of math notation, but they are *something*, anyway. On Mon, Nov 24, 2014 at 1:51 AM, Ron Savage wrote: > OK >

In answer to "What"s Kollos", I've written a short blurb on Github . I'll put together my notes on how someone who is notation-averse can try to approach learning Joop Leo's algorithm. On Sun, Nov 23, 2014 at 10:29 AM, wrote: > I'd l

Hi Jeffrey (and other Marpa gods), I don't know if you remember nearley (the JS implementation of Earley), but I've been working with a bunch of people to make nearley much more exciting. What do you think? Do you have any advice for which direction I should take this project? Spend time optimi
