[antlr-interest] Octal error in C.g grammar

Hi again,

With the danger of appearing stupid again; in the same C grammar as
mentioned above - two rules are equivalent:

argument_expression_list
: assignment_expression (',' assignment_expression)*
 ;

expression
: assignment_expression (',' assignment_expression)*
 ;

I guess it doesn't hurt, but surely only having 1 rule must be preferred?


regards

Q: Why is top-posting such a bad thing?
