I'm making a script parser in python and I'm a little stuck. I am not quite sure how to parse a line for all its functions (or even just one function at a time) and then search for a function with that name, and if it exists, execute that function short of writing a massive list if elif else block.... EDIT This is for my own scripting ...

What is the best way to extract raw text data from such files? ...
When it comes to making an IDE (e.g. SharpDevelop) or a compiler/language parser, what topics of computer science do I need to know? I don't expect a full list of in depth tutorials but just a list of topics which would benefit me in improving.

For a program I am writing, I need to ask a user for an integer between 1 and 8. I've tried multiple (cleaner) ways of doing this but none of them worked, so I'm left with this: int x = 0; while (x < 1 || x > 8) { System.out.print("Please enter integer (1-8): "); try { x = Integer.par...
This is actually a machine learning classification problem but I imagine there's a perfectly good quick-and-dirty way to do it. I want to map a string describing an NFL team, like "San Francisco" or "49ers" or "San Francisco 49ers" or "SF forty-niners", to a canonical name for the team. (There are 32 NFL teams so it really just means f...

What is the best way to scan a codebase for references to table names? Some ideas I've had: Search for the following keywords: "FROM", ...
I am trying to determine the best way to parse a log file and get a count of all of the errors in it by type. Currently, I open the log in a text editor, strip out the date and thread ID, then sort the file. This puts all errors together by type, which I can then count (using the count function in the editor, not manually). I am looki...
I'm working on a macro system for Python (as discussed here) and one of the things I've been considering are units of measure. Although units of measure could be implemented without macros or via static macros (e.g. defining all your units ahead of time), I'm toying around with the idea of allowing syntax to be extended dynamically at r...

Is there a simple way to determine wether a grammar is LL1, LR0, SLR1... just from looking on the grammar without doing any complex analysis? For instance: To decide wether a BNF Grammar is LL1 you have to calculate First and Follow sets first - which can be very time consuming in some cases. Has anybody got an idea how to do this fast...
