{wiki=Syntactic_predicate}
A syntactic predicate is a concept primarily used in parsing theory and programming language grammar to enhance parsing efficiency and manage ambiguity in grammars, particularly in the context of context-free grammars. It is often used in parser generators like ANTLR (Another Tool for Language Recognition), which allows developers to define grammars for programming languages and other formal languages.
