   The question stems from the following URL   
      
   http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/LL_parser   
      
   For the following grammar rules   
      
   1. S → F   
   2. S → ( S + F )   
   3. F → 1   
      
      
   They have a parsing table for ( 1 + 1 ) that looks like   
      
     |( |) |1|+|$   
   __________   
    S| 2| -|1|-| -   
   ___________   
    F|- |- |3|-| -   
      
      
   How do they arrive at this table? For example, they use first '(' from   
   the input stream. How do they know know to apply rule 2 and say not   
   rule 1?
