We now modify rpcalc to handle infix operators instead of
postfix.@footnote{A similar example, but using an unambiguous grammar rather
than precedence and associativity annotations, is available as
@file{examples/c/calc}.} Infix
notation involves the concept of operator precedence and the need for
parentheses nested to arbitrary depth. Here is the Bison code for
@file{calc.y}, an infix desk-top calculator.

@cindex @code{mfcalc}
@cindex calculator, multi-function
Now that the basics of Bison have been discussed, it is time to move on to
a more advanced problem.@footnote{The sources of @command{mfcalc} are available as
@file{examples/c/mfcalc}.} The above calculators provided only five
functions, @samp{+}, @samp{-}, @samp{*}, @samp{/} and @samp{^}. It would
be nice to have a calculator that provides other mathematical functions such
as @code{sin}, @code{cos}, etc.

It is easy to add new operators to the infix calculator as long as they are
only single-character literals. The lexical analyzer @code{yylex} passes
