Lots of string parsing tasks! #3

Open langford opened 9 years ago

If I wanted to make small log parsers, config file readers, etc, it's not explained well anywhere I've seen how to use all the string parsing functions well with Haskell (especially talking about judgement calls regarding types and items read from files)

Parsec tends to be the standard and has a decent level of documentation and tutorials. Are you wanting a more practical "Build a parser and then use it to parse YAML or JSON" sort of tutorial?

I probably should just be using parsec :D

The NICTA course has a nice section on building your own Parsec which may be fun. I found it to be pretty enlightening!
