lab06: some context and high level help

Let’s look at the big picture of lab06:

In particular, this segment of code

  public int tokenizeParseAndEvaluate(final String input)
	   throws TokenizerException, ParserException, EvaluatorException {
   	   return evaluate(parse(tokenize(input)));
  }

Let’s review the big picture:

• Tokenizing goes from String to ArrayList<Token>
  • The file Tokenizer.java is an implementation of the finite state automaton
• Parsing goes from ArrayList<Token> to AST
  • The file Parser.jvaa is an implementation of the context-free grammar.
• Evaluator goes from AST to plain old int

We can see that in this file:
