Assertion (A): LL(k) parsers for k greater than one are rare in practice.
Reason (R): The size of the parsing table grows sharply with the number of lookahead tokens.

  • A.A is false but R is true
  • B.Both A and R are true, and R is the correct explanation of A
  • C.Both A and R are true, but R is not the correct explanation of A
  • D.A is true but R is false

Answer: B

Both are true and the reason gives the mechanism, and there is a further consideration. Most language constructs can be brought within one token of lookahead by modest grammar changes, so the extra machinery earns little.
