recursive descent parser
(redirected from Recursive descent)

   Also found in: Wikipedia 0.01 sec.
(grammar)recursive descent parser - A "top-down" parser built from a set of mutually-recursive procedures or a non-recursive equivalent where each such procedure usually implements one of the productions of the grammar. Thus the structure of the resulting program closely mirrors that of the grammar it recognises.
