Look Ahead Left-to-right parse, Rightmost-derivation
<parsing, algorithm> (LALR, Look ahead LR) A type of LR parser that can
deal with more context-free grammars than SLR parsers but less than LR[1]
parsers. LALR parsers are popular because they give a good trade-off between the
number of grammars they can deal with and the size of the parsing table
required. Compiler compilers like yacc and Bison generate LALR parsers.
