Exercise (due March, 11th)

Develop a grammar that consists of

  • a type hierarchy
  • a lexicon
  • a set of rules

It's up to you what to include into the lexicon. Its content should be representative of a particular topic, e.g., sports, business, politics, traveling, TV and entertainment, etc. Be a bit creative. The student goes to university and something of that sort has been covered already in class and will not be accepted.
