Explore text processing capabilities in APL through this 25-minute conference talk from Dyalog '22. Dive into parsing techniques, architectural considerations, and handling text-oriented applications. Learn about structured models for parsing tasks, limitations of regular expressions, and recursive parsing expression grammars. Examine performance issues with recursive parsers and discover data-parallel, idiomatic parsing approaches. Follow along with practical examples including balanced parentheses parsing and variable binding. Gain insights into the new co-dfns parser and its advantages. Conclude with valuable notes on achieving flexibility, maintainability, and performance in APL text processing applications.
