parser
<language> An algorithm or program to determine the syntactic structure 
of a sentence or string of symbols in some language. A parser normally takes as 
input a sequence of tokens output by a lexical analyser. It may produce some 
kind of abstract syntax tree as output. One of the best known parser generators 
is yacc.
