If you ask me, the actual problem is the tree data structure... Maybe post order forms lend themselves better to processing. The even deeper problem is what ASTs are meant to represent, to which the answer would be "possibly a lot of diverse things". Diversity is never good in a computational context. But I don't see a good way to avoid it in the context of programming languages and ASTs. The reason for the diversity is that programming languages should allow humans to specify what should happen in very few keystrokes. |
