Description

This package is meant to provide a high-level API for programmers to visualise parse trees. The eventual goal is to animate the tokenization (extracting symbols from a string), lexing (formatting the tokens), parsing (building the parse tree) and evaluation (reducing the parse tree).

Setup

It is extremely easy to integrate this package in your existing projects.

In the command line, run:

pip install animated_parse_tree

Sample Usage

Then in your Python source file / Jupyter Notebook, insert:

from animated_parse_tree import ParseTree

# Instantiate Parse Tree Object
t = ParseTree()

# Read a Mathematical String Expression (separated by singular whitespace characters)
t.read('1 + 2 * 3')

# Retrieve the Result
print('<<< Equation >>>')
print(t.expression, '=', t.evaluate(), end='\n\n')

# Display the Parse Tree
print('<<< Parse Tree >>>')
print(str(t))

The output in the terminal will look something like this:

<<< Equation >>>
1 + 2 * 3 = 7.0

<<< Parse Tree >>>
   +
 ↙     ↘
1.0    *
     ↙   ↘
    2.0 3.0
