% The algorithm used is compatible with that used in the \LaTeX~2.09
% |ifthen| style option. It has been recoded, making the resulting

% \section{Introduction}
%
% \DescribeMacro{\ifthenelse}
% |\ifthenelse{|^^A
%       \meta{test}|}{|\meta{then clause}|}{|\meta{else clause}|}|
%
% Evaluates \meta{test} as a boolean function, and then executes
% either \meta{then clause} or \meta{else clause}.
%
% \meta{test} is a boolean expression using the infix connectives,
% |\and|, |\or|, the unary |\not| and parentheses |\( \)|.
%
% As an alternative notation |\AND|, |\OR| and |\NOT| can be
%    used. This is safer since it can't be misinterpreted
%    when appearing inside a \TeX-conditional in which |\or| has a
%    different meaning.
%
% The atomic  propositions are:\\
% \meta{number} |<| \meta{number} \\
% \meta{number} |=| \meta{number} \\
% \meta{number} |>| \meta{number} \\
% |\isodd{| \meta{number} |}|\\
% |\isundefined{| \meta{command name} |}|\\
% |\equal{|\meta{string}|}{|\meta{string}|}|\\
% |\lengthtest{|\meta{dimen}|<|\meta{dimen}|}|\\
% |\lengthtest{|\meta{dimen}|=|\meta{dimen}|}|\\
% |\lengthtest{|\meta{dimen}|>|\meta{dimen}|}|\\
% |\boolean{|\meta{name}|}|
%
% The \meta{string}s tested by |\equal| may be any sequence of commands
% that expand to a list of tokens. If these expansions are equal, then
% the proposition is true.
%
% |\isodd| is true if the \meta{number} is odd, and false otherwise
% (even if the argument is not a number).
%
% |\isundefined{\cmd}| is true if |\cmd| is not defined.
%
% |\boolean{xyz}| returns the truth value contained in the primitive
% \TeX\ |\if|, |\ifxyz|. This is usually used with boolean flags
% created with |\newboolean| and  |\provideboolean| described below.
% It can also be used with the names of |\newif| created tokens, and
% primitive \TeX\ |\if| constructs, for example |\boolean{true}|
% (|\iftrue|),  |\boolean{mmode}| (|\ifmmode|) etc.
%
%
%  The commands:\\
%  |\newboolean|\marg{name}\DescribeMacro{\newboolean}\ and\
%  |\provideboolean|\marg{name}\DescribeMacro{\provideboolean}\
%  are provided so the user can easily create  new boolean flags.
%  As for |\newcommand|, |\newboolean| generates an error if the
%  command name is not new. |\provideboolean| silently does nothing in
%  that case.
%
%  The boolean flags may be set with:\\
%  |\setboolean|\marg{name}\marg{value}\DescribeMacro{\setboolean}\\
% \meta{value} may be either |true| or |false| (any CaSe).
%
% Note that there is no precedence between |\and| and |\or|.
% The proposition is evaluated in a left right manner. |\not| only
% applies to the immediately following proposition. (This is consistent
% with Lamport's |ifthen.sty|.) In this style, though the test is
% `lazily' evaluated, so for instance if the first proposition in an
% |\or| is true, the second one is skipped. (On the second pass---the
% first pass in an |\edef| expands clauses in all propositions.)
%
% Apart from the addition of the extra atomic propositions |\isodd|,
% |\boolean|, |\lengthtest| and |\isundefined|,
% the only known incompatibility is that
% in this package the expression|\not\not|\meta{P} is equivalent to
% \meta{P}.
% However in the original style it was equivalent to |\not|\meta{P}.
% This is intentional (bug fix:-).
%
% \DescribeMacro{\whiledo}
% The command |\whiledo| is also defined (copied directly from
% the \LaTeX2.09 definition).
%
% |\whiledo{|\meta{test}|}{|\meta{while clause}|}|
%
% With \meta{test} as above, repeatedly executes \meta{while clause}
% while the test remains true.

%
% \begin{macro}{\TE@throw}
% In order to support the syntax of |ifthen.sty|, which allows access
% to the primitive \TeX\ syntax for a numeric test, rather than a |{}|
% delimited argument form, it is most convenient to work `within' an
% |\ifnum|. |\ift@throw| `throws' you out of the current |\ifnum| so
% that you can (eg) start an |\ifdim| for the length tests.
%    \begin{macrocode}
\def\TE@throw{\@ne=\@ne\noexpand\fi}
%    \end{macrocode}
% \end{macro}
%
% \begin{macro}{\boolean}
% A non-standard extension to |ifthen|, supporting boolean was
% previously available, this is a simpler implementation.
%    \begin{macrocode}
\def\boolean#1#2{%
  \TE@throw\expandafter\noexpand\csname if#1\endcsname#2}
%    \end{macrocode}
% \end{macro}
%
% \begin{macro}{\TE@length}
% Testing lengths. |#1| is the test. The extra argument gobbles spaces.
%    \begin{macrocode}
\def\TE@length#1#2{\TE@throw\noexpand\ifdim#1#2}
%    \end{macrocode}
% \end{macro}
%
% \begin{macro}{\TE@odd}
% \begin{macro}{\TE@@odd}
% Testing odd/even. This is true if |#1| is an odd number, and false
% otherwise (even if |#1| is not a number at all).
%
% It is hard to make this completely reliable. Here I have erred on the
% side of safety. This should not generate a \TeX\ error if given any
% robust commands as its argument. However it returns true on any
% argument that \emph{starts} with an odd number |11xx| which is bad,
% and it can not deal with \TeX's count registers, although \LaTeX\
% counters work (via |\value|).
% \changes{v1.0b}{1993/12/17}{Improve \cs{isodd}.}

% \end{macro}
%
%  \begin{macro}{\TE@repl}
% |\TE@repl| replaces the single token |#1| by |#2|. (Not within |{}|
% groups.) It is used to replace |\or| by |\TE@or| without the need to
% redefine |\or|. Earlier versions just |\let\or\TE@or| but this has a
% bad effect on the expansion of commands which use the primitive
% |\or| internally, eg |\alph|, and so caused surprising results if
% these commands were used inside |\equal|.

%
% \begin{macro}{\ifthenelse}
% The remaining macros in this file are derived from the ones in
% |ifthen.sty| but recoded and simplified. The main simplification is
% that the original style (and the |\boolean| extensions) expressed
% logical values always in terms of |\ifnum|. As |\fi| is `untyped' this
% is not necessary, so for example the length tests can return values
% via |\ifdim|, the trailing |\fi| will not complain, even though it was
% `expecting' an |\ifnum|. Also the system of passing information via
% macros expanding to |T| or |F| has been completely replaced by a
% simpler system using |\iftrue|, which furthermore allows lazy
% evaluation on the second pass.

% For the first pass, in a group, make various tokens non-expandable.
%
% It is unfortunate that in order to remain compatible with |ifthen|
% syntax, it is necessary to have a two pass system. The first pass
% inside an |\edef| `exposes' the |\if|\ldots\ |\fi| tokens, so the
% correct clauses may be skipped on the second pass. This means that the
% whole |\ifthenelse| command does not work by expansion, and so
% possibly has only limited usefulness for macro code writers.
% The main problem with the |ifthen:| syntax is that (unique for \LaTeX)
% it does not uses a brace delimited argument form, and exposes the
% primitive \TeX\ syntax for \meta{number}. Pretty much the only way of
% parsing |1 > 2 \or 2 < 1| is to actually evaluate the primitive
% |\ifnum|s. A syntax such as:\\%
% |\or{\numtest{1<2}}{\lengthtest{1pt<1in}}|\\
%  could easily be evaluated in a one pass way, operating directly via
%  expansion, and leaving no extra tokens in the token stream.
