    Parse::RecDescent is an example of a grammar-based parser. You will need to understand something about grammars before you can understand it. I would suggest going to CPAN (www.cpan.org) and reading the extensive documentation provided with Parser::RecDescent before going much further.

    merlin has given you an example grammar, and specifically stated that he was doing so. To understand the code, you are going to need to study the code and Perl6::Rules, as he stated.
