Grammars are, for many people, one of the most exciting features of Perl 6. They unify parsing with object orientation, with each production rule in your grammar being represented by a method. These methods are a little special: they are declared using the keywords “regex”, “rule” or “token”, each of which gives you different defaults on backtracking and whitespace handling.
