-- This module includes everything you need to get started writing a parser.
-- If you are new to Megaparsec and don't know where to begin, take a look
-- at our tutorials <https://mrkkrp.github.io/megaparsec/tutorials.html>.
--
-- By default this module is set up to parse character data. If you'd like to
-- parse the result of your own tokenizer you should start with the following
-- imports:
--
-- > import Text.Megaparsec.Prim
-- > import Text.Megaparsec.Combinator
--
-- Then you can implement your own version of 'satisfy' on top of the
-- 'token' primitive.
--
-- Typical import section looks like this:
--
-- > import Text.Megaparsec
-- > import Text.Megaparsec.String
-- > -- import Text.Megaparsec.ByteString
-- > -- import Text.Megaparsec.ByteString.Lazy
-- > -- import Text.Megaparsec.Text
-- > -- import Text.Megaparsec.Text.Lazy
--
-- As you can see the second import depends on data type you want to use as
-- input stream. It just defines the useful type-synonym @Parser@.
--
-- Megaparsec 5 uses some type-level machinery to provide flexibility
-- without compromising on type safety. Thus type signatures are sometimes
-- necessary to avoid ambiguous types. If you're seeing a error message that
-- reads like “Ambiguous type variable @e0@ arising from … prevents the
-- constraint @(ErrorComponent e0)@ from being resolved”, you need to give
-- an explicit signature to your parser to eliminate the ambiguity. It's a
-- good idea to provide type signatures for all top-level definitions.
--
-- Megaparsec is capable of a lot. Apart from this standard functionality
-- you can parse permutation phrases with "Text.Megaparsec.Perm",
-- expressions with "Text.Megaparsec.Expr", and even entire languages with
-- "Text.Megaparsec.Lexer". These modules should be imported explicitly
-- along with the two modules mentioned above.

-- $assocbo
--
-- This combinator implements choice. The parser @p \<|> q@ first applies
-- @p@. If it succeeds, the value of @p@ is returned. If @p@ fails
-- /without consuming any input/, parser @q@ is tried.
--
-- The parser is called /predictive/ since @q@ is only tried when parser @p@
-- didn't consume any input (i.e. the look ahead is 1). This
-- non-backtracking behaviour allows for both an efficient implementation of
-- the parser combinators and the generation of good error messages.

-- $many
--
-- @many p@ applies the parser @p@ /zero/ or more times and returns a list
-- of the returned values of @p@. Note that if the @p@ parser fails
-- consuming input, then the entire @many p@ parser fails with the error
-- message @p@ produced instead of just stopping iterating. In these cases
-- wrapping @p@ with 'try' may be desirable.
--
-- > identifier = (:) <$> letter <*> many (alphaNumChar <|> char '_')

-- $some
--
-- @some p@ applies the parser @p@ /one/ or more times and returns a list of
-- the returned values of @p@. The note about behavior of the combinator in
-- case when @p@ fails consuming input (see 'A.many') applies to 'some' as
-- well.
--
-- > word = some letter

-- $optional
--
-- @optional p@ tries to apply parser @p@. It will parse @p@ or nothing. It
-- only fails if @p@ fails after consuming input. On success result of @p@
-- is returned inside of 'Just', on failure 'Nothing' is returned.
