The ethical liability varies with context and with the degree to which the claim stretches important facts. In an academic context, claiming to have done something without some specific tool on an assignment for grade where the tool's use is prohibited is clearly cheating. However, people who work on designing computer languages use tools for creating languages. Tools like lex and yacc and make have been around for forty years.

Jan 27, 2015 at 20:43 comment added theideasmith Are formal grammars written in formal grammars?
