Pratt Parsers: Expression Parsing Made Easy
Some time ago I went down a fascinating rabbit hole on Pratt parsers while writing a math expression evaluator. In addition to the OP and above-linked article, I found the following helpful.

Building a tiny little broken calculator with parser combinators
Those interested may find Pratt parsing compelling, it is easy to implement and works well for hobby parsers (production quality error messaging tends to require custom code). As an example here’s a quick and dirty expression evaluator I made a whole back that supports D&D-style die roll codes as literals/first class variables: https://github.com/JacksonKearl/RollDice-Discord
