Parser combinators are a functional approach to parsing that uses a combination of functions to define the grammar. Some (like me) find that this leads to a pleasantly natural expression of the parser. Also, it means you can write your parser entirely in the host language (Nice, e.g.) rather than having to learn a new, specialized language for your parser generator.
