Parsing F# with Petit Parser

The goal of this project is to implement F# grammar in Petit Parser. F# is an indentation sensitive language. It means that the spaces and tabulators matters and might change syntax of a program. Petit Parser is a Parsing Expression Grammar based framework which was recently extended with support for indentation sensitive languages.

In this work a student:

• is supposed to implement F# grammar in Petit Parser,
• parse significant amount of F# sources as a validation of an implementation and
• measure the performance of indentation sensitive features.

The project is currently assigned as a bachelors project.
