LR parsing

LR parsing is a method used in computer science to analyze and understand the structure of programming languages or data formats. It functions by reading input from left to right (the "L") and constructing a parse tree in a rightmost, deepest-first manner (the "R"). Essentially, it helps programs understand how sequences of symbols, like code, fit together according to specific rules. LR parsers are efficient and can handle a wide range of grammars, making them popular for compilers and interpreters in programming environments.
