// Shunting Yard Algorithm
// by Edsger Dijkstra
// ========================

object CW9a {

type Toks = List[String]

// the operations in the simple version
val ops = List("+", "-", "*", "/")

// the precedences of the operators
val precs = Map("+" -> 1,
		"-" -> 1,
		"*" -> 2,
		"/" -> 2)

// helper function for splitting strings into tokens
def split(s: String) : Toks = s.split(" ").toList

// (6) Implement below the shunting yard algorithm. The most
// convenient way to this in Scala is to implement a recursive 
// function and to heavily use pattern matching. The function syard 
// takes some input tokens as first argument. The second and third 
// arguments represent the stack and the output of the shunting yard 
// algorithm.
//
// In the marking, you can assume the function is called only with 
// an empty stack and an empty output list. You can also assume the
// input os  only properly formatted (infix) arithmetic expressions
// (all parentheses will be well-nested, the input only contains 
// operators and numbers).

// You can implement any additional helper function you need. I found 
// it helpful to implement two auxiliary functions for the pattern matching:  
//

// (7) Implement a compute function that evaluates an input list
// in postfix notation. This function takes a list of tokens
// and a stack as argumenta. The function should produce the 
// result as an integer using the stack. You can assume 
// this function will be only called with proper postfix 
// expressions.
