Bidirectional Grammar Transformation

These are grammar transformations useful in compiler construction (Compilerbau): conversion to Chomsky normal form, left factoring, left recursion elimination.

For each of these transformations between grammars, there exist forward and backward transformations between syntax trees of the grammars. To use grammar transformations in practice, we need the syntax tree transformations.
