S -> E Default (GPT-3.

5)

E -> E + T | T
T -> T D | D
D -> 0 | 1 | 2 | 3 | 4 | 5 | 6 | 7 | 8 | 9

And here's the partial parse table we discussed earlier:

+ 0-9 $

S S -> E

E E+T E+T

T TD

D 0-9

Let's consider the input string `"2+3"` and walk through how the parse table helps us determine
its correctness:

1. Initial State: We start in state `S` (the start symbol).


2. Reading Input: The first symbol in the input is `2`.
3. Parse Table Lookup: We check the cell at row `S` and column `0-9`. The cell contains the
production `S -> E`, so we replace `S` with `E`.
4. Reading Input: We're still at `2` in the input.
5. Parse Table Lookup: We check the cell at row `E` and column `0-9`. The cell contains the
production `E -> T`, so we replace `E` with `T`.
6. Reading Input: We're still at `2` in the input.
7. Parse Table Lookup: We check the cell at row `T` and column `0-9`. The cell contains the
production `T -> T D`, so we replace `T` with `T D`.
8. Reading Input: Now we move to the next symbol, which is `+`. Regenerate
9. Parse Table Lookup: We check the cell at row `T` and column `+`. The cell contains no action,
indicating there's no direct production or action for this combination. This is where a complete

Since there's no valid action in the parse table Versionfor the input symbol `+` in the current state `T`, ?
the parser would stop and signal an error. In this example, the input `"2+3"` is not syntactically
