/*
This file contains a formal grammar defined by yielding instructions to a state machine.
The grammar is extensible, because you can always wrap it in a higher-order grammar!
Formally the system is a VM exectuting an https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Earley_parser
The VM is not yet sufficiently finished to execute this grammar, but it soon will be.

Usage will be:

```js
import { parse } from 'cst-tokens';

Who am I?

I am Conrad Buck (also known as conartist6): a software engineer, open source maintainer, and currently full time self-employed inventor.

I specialize in the creation of tools and platforms, with a particular attention to human factors both in the process of software develpment and in the way software affects the lives of the people who use it. I have an abiding love of all things playful, and see deep symmetry between the artistic, scientific, and engineering processes. I am a private pilot.

My history

Between the 2012 and 2020 I was a Frontend Engineer based in San Francisco, where I worked for MyVR, Spruce Media, Switchfly, VMWare, Facebook, and Plangrid (departed due to pandemic). I have most (-.5 credits) of a Bachelor of Arts in Computer Science degree from Bucknell University. A full accounting of this history is on [LinkedIn](https://www.linkedin.com/i

  A range is represented as a [Token, Token] tuple.

  A range can only be iterated backwards, which creates the need to store tokens in an array!

  Each node must have its own tokens array to enable efficient editing.

  A context object often abbreviated `ctx` holds WeakMaps, including `paths` and `previousTokens`.

  Tokens reference their preceding token using the `previousTokens` WeakMap.

new Grammar({
  productions: {
  
    // This version of ImportSpecifier uses helpers to be concise:
    *ImportSpecifier() {
      yield eat(prod`Identifier:imported`);
      yield eatMatch(tok`Keyword:as`, prod`Identifier:local`);
    },
