The coroutine mechanism is explained as a simplified implementation of a special case in parallel processing.

LL(1) grammars have the conceptual and practical advantage that they allow the compiler writer to view the grammar as a program; this allows a more natural positioning of semantic actions and a simple attribute mechanism. Resulting parsers can be constructed that achieve fully automatic error‐recovery, which allows the compiler writer to ignore totally the issue of syntax errors. Measurement shows that such parsers can be reasonably efficient.
