Module clue_core::parser

The parser is the third step of the compilation process. It takes the tokens from the scanner and converts them into an AST (Abstract Syntax Tree).

The parser is a recursive descent parser, which means that it uses a recursive function to parse the tokens. This function is called parse_tokens and is the entry point for the parser.
