(++) : ('a -> 'b * 'c) -> ('c -> 'd * 'e) -> 'a -> ('b * 'd) * 'e
SYNOPSIS
Sequentially compose two parsers.
DESCRIPTION
If p1 and p2 are two parsers, p1 ++ p2 is a new parser that parses as
much of the input as possible using p1 and then as much of what remains using
p2, returning the pair of parse results and the unparsed input.
FAILURE CONDITIONS
Never fails.
COMMENTS
This is one of a suite of combinators for manipulating ``parsers''. A parser is
simply a function whose OCaml type is some instance of
:('a)list -> 'b * ('a)list. The function should take a list of objects of
type :'a (e.g. characters or tokens), parse as much of it as possible from
left to right, and return a pair consisting of the object derived from parsing
(e.g. a term or a special syntax tree) and the list of elements that were not
processed.
