FParsec only parses expr between parentheses

问题

I am coding a parser (for learning pourpuses).

I want it to parse constructions like

let myVar be 40 plus 2

and

let myVar be (40 plus 2)

With no problems... but my parser does not "understand" the former. It sees the 40 and thinks "well, it's a Literal Numeric 40".

When I put parentheses, my parser works great.

I am having a hard time to understand why.

Parser:

type value =
    | Boolean of bool
    | Numeric of float
    | String of string

type arithmetic = Sum | Sub | Mul | Div | Pow

type logic = And | Or | Equal | NotEqual | Greater | Smaller

type identifier =
    | Identifier of string

type expression =
    | Literal of value
    | Arithmetic of expression * arithmetic * expression
    | Negative of expression
    | Negation of expression
    | Logic of expression * logic * expression
    | Variable of identifier

type statement =
    | Assignment of identifier * expression
    | Print of expression
    | Read of identifier

let private ws = spaces

let private str s = pstring s .>> ws

let private pstringliteral =
    choice [
        between (pstring "\"") (pstring "\"") (manyChars (satisfy (fun c -> c <> '"')))
        between (pstring "'") (pstring "'") (manyChars (satisfy (fun c -> c <> ''')))
    ]
    |>> fun s -> Literal (String s)

let private pcode =
    many pline

let generateAST code =
    match run pcode code with
    | Success (ast, _, _) -> sprintf "%A" ast
    | Failure (msg, _, _) -> msg

Usage:

[<EntryPoint>]
let main argv =
    printfn "%s\n" (generateAST "let b be 5 plus 7") 
    // [Assignment (Identifier "b",Literal (Numeric 5.0))]

    printfn "%s\n" (generateAST "let b be (5 plus 7)")
    // [Assignment
    //    (Identifier "b",Arithmetic (Literal (Numeric 5.0),Sum,Literal (Numeric 7.0)))]

Take a look at FParsec - Tracing a parser

If you add the recommended FParsec tracing function to the top of your code

let (<!>) (p: Parser<_,_>) label : Parser<_,_> =
    fun stream ->
        printfn "%A: Entering %s" stream.Position label
        let reply = p stream
        printfn "%A: Leaving %s (%A)" stream.Position label reply.Status
        reply

then modify the parsers to use the trace function

let private pnumeric =
    (pfloat
    .>> ws
    |>> fun n -> Literal (Numeric n)) <!> "pnumeric"

let private pboolean =
    (choice [
        (stringReturn "true" (Literal (Boolean true)))
        (stringReturn "false" (Literal (Boolean false)))
    ]
    .>> ws) <!> "pboolean"

let private pstringliteral =
    (choice [
        between (pstring "\"") (pstring "\"") (manyChars (satisfy (fun c -> c <> '"')))
        between (pstring "'") (pstring "'") (manyChars (satisfy (fun c -> c <> ''')))
    ]
    |>> fun s -> Literal (String s))  <!> "pstringliteral"

let private pidentifier =
    (many1Satisfy2L isLetter (fun c -> isLetter c || isDigit c) "identifier"
    |>> fun s -> Identifier s) <!> "pidentifier"

let private betweenParentheses p =
    (between (str "(") (str ")") p) <!> "betweenParentheses"

let private pvalue =
    (choice [
        pnumeric
        pboolean
    ]) <!> "pvalue"

let private negationExprParser = oppNegation.ExpressionParser <!> "negationExprParser"
let private logicExprParser = oppLogic.ExpressionParser <!> "logicExprParser"
let private arithmeticExprParser = oppArithmetic.ExpressionParser <!> "arithmeticExprParser"
let private negativeExprParser = oppNegative.ExpressionParser <!> "negativeExprParser "

let private pexpression =
    choice [
        attempt <| pstringliteral
        attempt <| negationExprParser
        attempt <| logicExprParser
        attempt <| negativeExprParser
        attempt <| arithmeticExprParser
        attempt <| (pidentifier |>> fun id -> Variable id)
    ]  <!> "pexpression"

let private passignment =
    pipe2 (str "let" .>> ws >>. pidentifier) (ws >>. str "be" >>. ws >>. pexpression) (fun id exp -> Assignment (id, exp))  <!> "passignment"

let private pprint =
    (str "print"
    >>. pexpression
    |>> fun exp -> Print exp)  <!> "pprint"

let private pread =
    (str "read"
    >>. pidentifier
    |>> fun id -> Read id)  <!> "pread"

let private pstatement =
    (choice [
        passignment
        pprint
        pread
    ])   <!> "pstatement"

let private pline =
    (skipMany (satisfy (fun c -> c = '\n' || c = ' '))
    >>. pstatement
    .>> ws)   <!> "pline"

let private pcode =
    many pline  <!> "pcode"

This should help you figure out your problem, but more importantly how to solve future problems with FParsec.
