Identifier names are crucial components of code, serving as primary clues for developers to understand program behavior. This paper investigates the linguistic structure of identifier names by extending the concept of grammar patterns,…

In this article, we present Tahr, a framework that allows taking attribute grammar specifications and generating a set of software artefacts that can be used programmatically to operate on text compliant with the grammars. Tahr can be used…
