This illustrates how the parser generated from the Calculator.grm grammar allows parsing of partial subgrammars (in this case definitions and expressions) as sepcified by the declarations: %root Expression %root Definition instead of the just the full grammar rooted in the initial non-terminal symbol Session, which stands for an interactive session where several expressions or definitions may be successively parsed and interpreted.

This is a standalone application calling the generated partial parser methods parseDefinition and parseExpresion on given strings and printing the result of the parse for each string.
