Locally minimum-distance correction of syntax errors in programming languages
ACM '80: Proceedings of the ACM 1980 annual conferenceA formal model for locally minimum-distance correction of syntax errors is presented. This model is based on the assumption that errors occur in clusters which are separated by at least k correct symbols. Even if the assumption fails, this model can ...
A statistical analysis of syntax errors
A study of errors made by Pascal programmers is described. The results of this study are discussed in relation to compiler syntax error recovery procedures. It is found that syntax errors made in practice are quite simple and occur relatively ...
