# for background

# takes a tokenizer and elements
# tokenizer is an iterator that returns (type, value, pos) tuples
# elements is a mapping of types to binding strength, primary, prefix, infix
# and suffix actions
# an action is a tree node name, a tree label, and an optional match
# __call__(program) parses program into a labeled tree
