I am using Python with PLY to parse LISP-like S-Expressions and when parsing a function call there can be zero or more arguments. How can I put this into the yacc code. This is my function so far:

def p_EXPR(p):
    '''EXPR : NUMBER
            | STRING
            | LPAREN funcname [EXPR] RPAREN'''
    if len(p) == 2:
        p[0] = p[1]
    else:
        p[0] = ("Call", p[2], p[3:-1])

I need to replace "[EXPR]" with something that allows zero or more EXPR's. How can I do this?
