Lexical format for floating-point constants

I’m doing a syntax highlighter for ATS based on the Monarch editor (used in
Visual Studio Code) and I’m interested to know what’s the lexical grammar
for floating-point constants?

I’ve tried looking through the lexer source code, but I find it quite
complicated. I’d like some help on this one.

Great. Looking forward to using it.On Tuesday, August 16, 2016 at 1:15:51 AM UTC-4, gmhwxi wrote:

This is great news!

I really want to try it for my upcoming class.

Could you show me how to use the Monaco editor to
replace the textareas in the following page:

Thanks!

These days I have been thinking about building some sort of on-line
coding
system of ATS. The manaco editor looks pretty decent. When your syntax
definition
is ready, I will give it a try.

I’m currently in the process of writing unit-tests (caught a bug with a
comment already!).

It’s taking quite some time. Will let you know if something fruitful
comes out of it.

Here’s the code, in a gist:

ATS/Postiats syntax hilighting support for the Monaco editor. · GitHub

It can be tested by visiting:

Monaco Editor

and pasting the syntax definition into the textbox. I’ve also provided
an example input (some rubbish to help figure out if hilighting is
well-behaved).

This needs more testing and tuning, but seems like a worthwhile effort!

INT0 = [0-9]*
INT1 = (0 | 1-9)
DOT = [.]
EXP = eE

Then FLOAT is

(INT1)(EXP) | (INT1)(DOT)(INT0)(EXP)? | (DOT)(INT1)(EXP)?

There are also hexadecimal floating point numbers:

HEX0 = [0-9a-z]*
HEX1 = (0 | 1-9a-z)
DOT = [.]
EXP = pP

HEXFLOAT = (HEX1)(EXP) | (HEX1)(DOT)(HEX0)(EXP?) | (DOT)(HEX1)(EXP?)

In C, EXP? should be EXP for hexadecimal floating point numbers.
