Question
Partial matching in a simple Raku program
I've created a simple program based on the Raku parsefile
example provided here. The contents of my Raku file are:
grammar Names {
token TOP { [<name><.ws>]+ }
token name { <:alpha>+ }
}
say Names.parsefile('names.txt');
The contents of names.txt is below:
Andrea
John
Running this minimal program indicates a successful parse has been achieved:
「Andrea
John
」
name => 「Andrea」
name => 「John」
If I now add something which will not be parsed by the name
token (i.e. 99999999
):
Andrea
99999999
John
...running the program then outputs only Nil
. Is there a way to modify the program so that I could still find that "Andrea" and "John" have been parsed by the name
token successfully?
