subject Lexical syntax in chapter 1 and chapter A do not match
code
what happened
The lexical syntax in chapter 1 and chapter A do not match. The productions varid and id are clearly wrong in chapter A, as they would allow ids like a_3*. Chapter A mentions symb\
olLit but not chapter 1. Chapter 1 mentions XML but not chapter A.
what expected The two syntax should match. Furthermore, in chapter 1, as letter contains the character _ the production idrest could be simplified from this
idrest ::= {letter | digit} [ `_' op | `_' idrest ]
into that
idrest ::= {letter | digit} [ `_' op ]

There's still no XML in appendix A, but that's OK I think.
