What is the opposite of 'parse'? [closed]

I think the verb you want is 'compose'.


The opposite of parse is serialize


In compiler terminology, the opposite is "unparse". Specifically, parsing turns a stream of tokens into abstract syntax trees, while unparsing turns abstract syntax trees into a stream of tokens.


Compose? When parsing a query you break it into its constituent parts (tokens, etc.), the reverse would be composing the parts into a string query.
