Abstract
A simple portable interpreter for testing the specifications of problems is presented in this paper. These specificiations are supposed to be expressed in the formalism of attribute grammars. The parsing and the semantics evaluation are carried out simultaneously, so that the parsing can be directed by the semantics. This increases the power of the grammars and context sensitive characteristics of a language can be described.Keywords
