<p>
Spirit.Qi parsers fall into a couple of generalized <a href="http://www.boost.org/community/generic_programming.html#concept" target="_top">concepts</a>.
The <span class="emphasis"><em>Parser</em></span> is the most fundamental concept. All Spirit.Qi
parsers are models of the <span class="emphasis"><em>Parser</em></span> concept. <span class="emphasis"><em>PrimitiveParser</em></span>,
<span class="emphasis"><em>UnaryParser</em></span>, <span class="emphasis"><em>BinaryParser</em></span>, <span class="emphasis"><em>NaryParser</em></span>,
and <span class="emphasis"><em>Nonterminal</em></span> are all refinements of the <span class="emphasis"><em>Parser</em></span>
concept.
</p>
<p>
The following sections provide details on these concepts.
