-- This module parses RPN expressions where the operands are
-- predicates and the operators are one of @and@, @or@, or @not@,

-- | Parses an RPN expression and returns the resulting 'Pred'. Fails if
-- there are no operands left on the stack or if there are multiple
-- operands left on the stack; the stack must contain exactly one
-- operand in order to succeed.
