Notation

This section briefly explains the meta syntax constructs used in various parts of the language documentation.

Note

A proper grammar specification may be added later.

  • ⟨name⟩

    Refers to a grammar rule by the given name.

  • ...

    Encloses a group of elements, which might be a combination of direct TethysL syntax and meta syntax constructs as explained in this page.

  • Without any of the following qualifiers appearing to the right, the construct will be required.

  • Otherwise, one of these characters, ?, *, +, will indicate the number of possible occurrences of the rule or grouping on the left:

    • ? : Zero or one time
    • * : Zero or more times
    • + : One or more times
