%
% where $\alpha$\,,\, $\beta$\, and $\gamma$ are \textit{atomic expressions} of one of those 8 valid forms:

% \end{tabular}\end{center}
% \footnotetext{The choice of $\nq$ rather than $\char33\!=$ is due to \nameref{catcodes}.}
%
% where $x$ and $y$ are either numeric expressions (or dimensions, glue, muglue to test using |\dimexpr|, |\glueexpr|
% or |\muexpr| -- please refer to the \nameref{examples}) and \meta{test} may be a switch (\cs{iftrue} / \cs{iffalse}
% or a conditional\footnote{\cs{if}, \cs{ifcase}, \cs{ifcat}, \cs{ifcsname}, \cs{ifdefined}, \cs{ifdim}, \cs{ifeof},
% \cs{iffontchar}, \cs{ifhmode}, \cs{ifinner}, \cs{ifmmode}, \cs{ifnum}, \cs{ifodd}, \cs{ifvmode}, \cs{ifvoid}, \cs{ifx}}).
% \thispackage abide by the precedence of |\AND| on |\OR|,
% and the whole expression is evaluated until the result is known (in other words, |\AND| and |\OR| are \textit{shortcut}
% boolean operators).
%
% \cmdref{boolexpr} will expand to \textbf{0} if the expression is \textbf{true}, making it proper to work with |\ifcase|
% Furthermore, \thispackage defines a \cmdref{switch} syntax which remains purely expandable.
%
% \textbf{Be aware that \cs{boolexpr} (a little like \cs{numexpr}) works only if its argument is purely expandable};
% the same for \cs{switch}. If you wish a more general \cs{CASE} syntax refer to this excellent paper:
% \url{http://www.tug.org/TUGboat/Articles/tb14-1/tb38fine.pdf}.
%
% The \thispackage package is designed to work with an \eTeX{} distribution of \LaTeX{}:
% it is based on the \eTeX{} |\numexpr| primitive and requires no other package.

%
% \begin{declcs}{boolexpr}\,\M{boolean expression}
% \end{declcs}\cmdlabel{boolexpr}
% \cs{boolexpr} is a macro that takes for unique argument a series of \textit{atomic expressions} of the form:\par
% \hskip2em\begin{tabular}{r>{$}c<{$}l}
%    numeric expr. & =   & numeric expr. \\
%    numeric expr. & \nq & numeric expr. \\
%    numeric expr. & <   & numeric expr  \\
%    numeric expr. & <=  & numeric expr  \\
%    numeric expr. & >   & numeric expr. \\
%    numeric expr. & >=  & numeric expr. \\
%    \cs{if}& \meta{test}& 0\ \cs{else}\ 1\cs{fi}\\
%    \multicolumn{3}{c}{\cs{boolexpr}\{\meta{boolean expression}\}}
% \end{tabular}\par\noindent
% related by \CSbf{AND} or \CSbf{OR} (with the usual logical precedence).
%
% \textbf{\cs{boolexpr} expands to \textbf{0} if the whole expression is \textbf{true}}
% and to a non nul number if the whole expression is false.
%
% \cs{boolexpr} is \textbf{purely expandable}.
%
% \begin{framed}
% Therefore, testing may be used as follow:§
% \begin{Verbatim}[gobble=1]
%     \ifcase\boolexpr{ boolean expression }
%          what to do if true
%     \else
%          what to do if false
%     \fi
% \end{Verbatim}
% \end{framed}
%
% It is possible to use \texttt{switches} as boolean quantities into a \cs{boolexpr} expression
% with the syntax:§
% \qquad|\ifswitch 0\else 1\fi|
%
% It is also possible to use |\ifdim|, |\ifnum| etc. (although it is not necessary because other forms
% of atomic expression can perform those tests more easily) and |\ifdefined|, |\ifcsname| etc. with
% the same syntax, f.ex.:§
% \qquad|\ifcsname| \meta{cs-name} |\endcsname  0\else 1\fi|
%
% It means that if the conditional is \texttt{true} then the \textit{atomic expression} is \texttt{true}
% (expands to |0|), otherwise the \textit{atomic expression} is |false| (expands to non |0|).
%
% It is possible to test |dimensions| (or |glue| or |muglue|) by writing |\dimexpr|
% (or |\glueexpr| or |\muexpr|) in front of the \textit{atomic expression}; therefore, the following are valid atomic expressions:§
% \hskip2em\begin{tabular}{rr>{$}c<{$}l}
%   \cs{dimexpr}  & dimen expr. & <  & dimen expr \\
%   \cs{glueexpr} & glue expr.  & \nq & glue expr. \\
%   \cs{muexpr}   & mu expr.    & =  & mu expr.
% \end{tabular}
%
% It is allowed to group expressions inside the argument of |\boolexpr| by inserting another |\boolexpr| evaluation, f.ex.:§
% \qquad|\boolexpr{  \boolexpr{ |$\alpha$ | \OR | $\beta$ |} \AND | $\gamma$ |  }|
%
% The logical \textbf{NOT} operator can be achieved by writing for example:§
% \qquad|\ifcase\boolexpr{|\meta{boolean expression}|} 1\else 0\fi|
%
% Finally, if the \meta{boolean expression} is missing:§
%\qquad|\boolexpr{  }| expands to |1| (\ie |false|).
%
% \begin{declcs}{ifboolexpr}\,\M{boolean expression}\,\M{true part}\,\M{false part}
% \end{declcs}
% \cs{ifboolexpr} is the \LaTeX{} form of a |\boolexpr| test.\enlargethispage{\baselineskip}
%
% \cs{ifboolexpr} is purely expandable (provided \meta{true part} and \meta{false part} are so).

% ``\emph{go to} |some macro|'' means: ``\emph{now expand} |some macro|''.
%
% \def\orbuffer{\textsc{or}-buffer}

%       |#1| = before the first |\OR| (|#1| does not contain any |\OR|) \\
%       |#2| = after the first |\OR|
%      \item If |#2| is blank: the \emph{string} contains no |\OR|\\
%           \hspace*{2em} then go to |\bex@AND| to test |\AND| relations in |#1| \\

%    \end{enumerate}
%    \item |\bex@AND| \\
%       |#1| = \orbuffer\ for further testing if needed
%       \begin{enumerate}[label=\arabic*)]

%                   \end{enumerate}
%              In each of these 3 cases, the whole expression (\ie the \textit{string}) is true
%              because |#2| is true (otherwise, we had known the result of the whole \textit{string} earlier, and
%              were not into testing |#2|) \\
%                 \underline{Now if \Sharp3 is not blank} then |#2| is followed by |\AND|:\\

%                   \end{enumerate}
%                In each or these 3 cases, the whole expression (\ie the \emph{string}) is false

%                    Conclusion: the whole \emph{string} is true (otherwise, we would have concluded earlier

%                 \underline{Now if \Sharp3 is not blank} then |#2| is followed by |\AND| and we have to test further:\\

%                \item [FALSE:] we do not have to test the following |\AND|: the |\AND|-connected series is false.\\
%                    \underline{If the \orbuffer\ \Sharp1 is blank} then the whole \emph{string} is false. \\

% \subsection{Category codes considerations}\label{catcodes}
%
% At first glance, the author of this package wanted to test inequality with the operator $\char33\!=$. A problem arose
% because some languages make the character \char33\ active (f.ex. french). As far as babel changes the catcodes
% |\AtBeginDocument|, the category code of \char33\ is different in the preamble (12) than in the document (13).
%
% After all, it was possible to change the definitions after begin document but... if you try to make the = character
% active, you will (surprisingly) observe that a test like:§
% \qquad|\ifnum 4=4 ok\fi|§
% leads you to one of the following error messages:\parskip=0pt§
% \begin{tabbing}
%\qquad\=|undefined control sequence =|\qquad\= if |=| is undefined \\
%\>|missing = inserted for \ifnum|\> if |=| is defined.
% \end{tabbing}\restoreparskip
%
% The same apply for |<| or |>|. Therefore: such conditionals are possible for \TeX{} only if |=|\,,\,|<| and |>|
% have a category code of 12 (11 is forbidden too).
%
% Thus the choice of |<>| is far easier and more reliable than the c-like $\char33\!=$.
%

% \subsection{Future developments : to do}
%
% \thispackage should work either with \eTeX{} or \eTeX-\LaTeX{}...
%
% May be build a ``real'' |\NOT| operator.
%
% \begin{History}
%   \begin{Version}{2010/04/15 v3.14}
%   \item \xpackage{etoolbox} now defines a \cs{ifboolexpr} macro (not purely expandable). \\
%         Fix has been done (with a warning) to be able to use \cs{ifboolexpr} from \thispackage.
%   \end{Version}
% 
%   \begin{Version}{2009/09/30 v3.1}
%   \item Support of |\pdfmatch| added (|\bex@pdfmatch|) \\
%   \end{Version}
%
%   \begin{Version}{2009/09/03 v3.0 -- \eTeX{}- and Xe\TeX{}- stable}
%   \item
%   Many bug fixed in \cmdref{switch}. Tested on \LaTeX, pdf\LaTeX{} and Xe\LaTeX.
%   \item
%   Revision of this pdf documentation.
%   \end{Version}
%
%   \begin{Version}{2009/08/31 v2.9}
%   \item
%    Added |\value| in the ``list of exceptions'' (\cs{bex@test_Eval})
%    Enhancement of |\switch| with the optional first argument (refer to the examples).
%   \end{Version}
%
%   \begin{Version}{2009/08/13 v2.2}
%   \item
%    Small optimisation in \cs{bex@OR}
%   \end{Version}
%
%   \begin{Version}{2009/08/12 v2.1}
%   \item
%    Added the \cs{switch} syntax
%   \item
%    Small bug (|\numexpr| forgotten in the ``list of exceptions'' (\cs{bex@test_Eval})
%   \item
%   Redesigned tests for better compilation
%   \end{Version}
