BNF for Children

BNF for Children (BNFC) is a specialized tool used by computer programmers and language designers to clearly define the syntax—the rules for forming valid sentences or commands—of programming languages tailored for young learners. It extends the formal notation of Backus-Naur Form (BNF), making it more accessible and easier to understand for educational purposes. By providing a standardized way to specify language structure, BNFC helps create reliable, child-friendly programming environments and tools, ensuring that the language's rules are clear, consistent, and easier to implement for educational software.
