%
% A decimal floating point number is one which is stored as a significand and a
% separate exponent. The module implements expandably a wide set of
% arithmetic, trigonometric, and other operations on decimal floating point
% numbers, to be used within floating point expressions. Floating point
% expressions support the following operations with their usual
% precedence.
% \begin{itemize}
% \item Basic arithmetic: addition $x+y$, subtraction $x-y$,
% multiplication $x*y$, division $x/y$, square root~$\sqrt{x}$,
% and parentheses.
% \item Comparison operators: $x\mathop{\mathtt{<}}y$,
% $x\mathop{\mathtt{<=}}y$, $x\mathop{\mathtt{>?}}y$,
% $x\mathop{\mathtt{!=}}y$ \emph{etc.}
% \item Boolean logic: sign $\operatorname{sign} x$,
% negation $\mathop{!}x$, conjunction
% $x\mathop{\&\&}y$, disjunction $x\mathop{\vert\vert}y$, ternary
% operator $x\mathop{?}y\mathop{:}z$.
% \item Exponentials: $\exp x$, $\ln x$, $x^y$, $\operatorname{logb} x$.
% \item Integer factorial: $\operatorname{fact} x$.
% \item Trigonometry: $\sin x$, $\cos x$, $\tan x$, $\cot x$, $\sec
% x$, $\csc x$ expecting their arguments in radians, and
% $\operatorname{sind} x$, $\operatorname{cosd} x$,
% $\operatorname{tand} x$, $\operatorname{cotd} x$,
% $\operatorname{secd} x$, $\operatorname{cscd} x$ expecting their
% arguments in degrees.
% \item Inverse trigonometric functions: $\operatorname{asin} x$,
% $\operatorname{acos} x$, $\operatorname{atan} x$,
% $\operatorname{acot} x$, $\operatorname{asec} x$,
% $\operatorname{acsc} x$ giving a result in radians, and
% $\operatorname{asind} x$, $\operatorname{acosd} x$,
% $\operatorname{atand} x$, $\operatorname{acotd} x$,
% $\operatorname{asecd} x$, $\operatorname{acscd} x$ giving a result
% in degrees.
% \item [\emph{(not yet)}] Hyperbolic functions and their inverse
% functions: $\sinh x$, $\cosh x$, $\tanh x$, $\coth x$,
% $\operatorname{sech} x$, $\operatorname{csch}$, and
% $\operatorname{asinh} x$, $\operatorname{acosh} x$,
% $\operatorname{atanh} x$, $\operatorname{acoth} x$,
% $\operatorname{asech} x$, $\operatorname{acsch} x$.
% \item Extrema: $\max(x_{1},x_{2},\ldots)$, $\min(x_{1},x_{2},\ldots)$,
% $\operatorname{abs}(x)$.
% \item Rounding functions, controlled by two optional
% values, $n$ (number of places, $0$ by default) and
% $t$ (behavior on a tie, $\nan$ by default):
% \begin{itemize}
% \item $\operatorname{trunc}(x,n)$ rounds towards zero,
% \item $\operatorname{floor}(x,n)$ rounds towards~$-\infty$,
% \item $\operatorname{ceil}(x,n)$ rounds towards~$+\infty$,
% \item $\operatorname{round}(x,n,t)$ rounds to the closest value, with
% ties rounded to an even value by default, towards zero if $t=0$,
% towards $+\infty$ if $t>0$ and towards $-\infty$ if $t<0$.
% \end{itemize}
% And \emph{(not yet)} modulo, and \enquote{quantize}.
% \item Random numbers: $\mathop{rand}()$, $\mathop{randint}(m,n)$.
% \item Constants: \texttt{pi}, \texttt{deg} (one degree in radians).
% \item Dimensions, automatically expressed in points, \emph{e.g.},
% \texttt{pc} is~$12$.
% \item Automatic conversion (no need for \cs[no-index]{\meta{type}_use:N}) of
% integer, dimension, and skip variables to floating point numbers,
% expressing dimensions in points and ignoring the stretch and
% shrink components of skips.
% \item Tuples: $(x_1,\ldots{},x_n)$ that can be stored in variables,
% added together, multiplied or divided by a floating point number,
% and nested.
% \end{itemize}
% Floating point numbers can be given either explicitly (in a form such
% as |1.234e-34|, or |-.0001|), or as a stored floating point variable,
% which is automatically replaced by its current value.
% A \enquote{floating point} is a floating point number or a tuple thereof. See
% section~\ref{sec:l3fp:fp-floats} for a description of what a floating point is,
% section~\ref{sec:l3fp:fp-precedence} for details about how an expression is
% parsed, and section~\ref{sec:l3fp:fp-operations} to know what the various
% operations do. Some operations may raise exceptions (error messages),
% described in section~\ref{sec:l3fp:fp-exceptions}.
%
% An example of use could be the following.
% \begin{verbatim}
% \LaTeX{} can now compute: $ \frac{\sin (3.5)}{2} + 2\cdot 10^{-3}
% = \ExplSyntaxOn \fp_to_decimal:n {sin(3.5)/2 + 2e-3} $.
% \end{verbatim}
% The operation \texttt{round} can be used to limit the result's
% precision. Adding $+0$ avoids the possibly undesirable output |-0|,
% replacing it by |+0|. However, the \pkg{l3fp} module is mostly meant
% as an underlying tool for higher-level commands. For example, one
% could provide a function to typeset nicely the result of floating
% point computations.
% \begin{verbatim}
% \documentclass{article}
% \usepackage{xparse, siunitx}
% \ExplSyntaxOn
% \NewDocumentCommand { \calcnum } { m }
% { \num { \fp_to_scientific:n {#1} } }
% \ExplSyntaxOff
% \begin{document}
% \calcnum { 2 pi * sin ( 2.3 ^ 5 ) }
% \end{document}
% \end{verbatim}
% See the documentation of \pkg{siunitx} for various options of
% \cs{num}.

% \cs{int_compare:nTF}, all \meta{floating point expressions} are
% computed, even if one comparison is \texttt{false}. Two floating

% relations: $x<y$, $x=y$, $x>y$, or $x?y$ (\enquote{not ordered}).
% The last case occurs exactly if one or both operands is~\nan{} or is
% a tuple, unless they are equal tuples. Each \meta{relation}
% can be any (non-empty) combination of |<|, |=|, |>|, and~|?|, plus
% an optional leading~|!| (which negates the \meta{relation}), with
% the restriction that the \meta{relation} may not start with~|?|, as
% this symbol has a different meaning (in combination with~|:|) within
% floating point expressions. The comparison $x$~\meta{relation}~$y$
% is then \texttt{true} if the \meta{relation} does not start with~|!|
% and the actual relation (|<|, |=|, |>|, or~|?|) between $x$ and~$y$
% appears within the \meta{relation}, or on the contrary if the
% \meta{relation} starts with~|!| and the relation between $x$ and~$y$
% does not appear within the \meta{relation}. Common choices of

% \label{sec:l3fp:fp-exceptions}
%
% \emph{The functions defined in this section are experimental, and

%
% \enquote{Exceptions} may occur when performing some floating point
% operations, such as \texttt{0 / 0}, or \texttt{10 ** 1e9999}. The
% relevant \textsc{IEEE} standard defines $5$ types of exceptions,
% of which we implement~$4$.
% \begin{itemize}
% \item \emph{Overflow} occurs whenever the result of an operation is
% too large to be represented as a normal floating point number. This
% results in $\pm \infty$.
% \item \emph{Underflow} occurs whenever the result of an operation is
% too close to $0$ to be represented as a normal floating point
% number. This results in $\pm 0$.
% \item \emph{Invalid operation} occurs for operations with no defined
% outcome, for instance $0/0$ or $\sin(\infty)$, and results in a \nan{}.
% It also occurs for conversion functions whose target type does not
% have the appropriate infinite or \nan{} value (\emph{e.g.},
% \cs{fp_to_dim:n}).
% \item \emph{Division by zero} occurs when dividing a non-zero number
% by $0$, or when evaluating functions at poles, \emph{e.g.},
% $\ln(0)$ or $\cot(0)$. This results in $\pm\infty$.
% \item [\emph{(not yet)}] \emph{Inexact} occurs whenever the result of
% a computation is not exact, in other words, almost always. At the
% moment, this exception is entirely ignored in \LaTeX3.
% \end{itemize}
% To each exception we associate a \enquote{flag}: \texttt{fp_overflow},
% \texttt{fp_underflow}, \texttt{fp_invalid_operation} and
% \texttt{fp_division_by_zero}. The state of these flags can be tested
% and modified with commands from \pkg{l3flag}
%
% By default, the \enquote{invalid operation} exception triggers an
% (expandable) error, and raises the corresponding flag. Other
% exceptions raise the corresponding flag but do not trigger an error.
% The behaviour when an exception occurs can be modified (using
% \cs{fp_trap:nn}) to either produce an error and raise the flag, or
% only raise the flag, or do nothing at all.

% \section{Floating point expressions}
%
% \subsection{Input of floating point numbers} \label{sec:l3fp:fp-floats}
%
% We support four types of floating point numbers:
% \begin{itemize}
% \item $\pm m \cdot 10^{n}$, a floating
% point number, with integer $1\leq m\leq 10^{16}$, and
% $-{\ExplSyntaxOn\int_use:N\c__fp_minus_min_exponent_int}\leq
% n\leq {\ExplSyntaxOn\int_use:N\c__fp_max_exponent_int}$;
% \item $\pm 0$, zero, with a given sign;
% \item $\pm \infty$, infinity, with a given sign;
% \item \nan{}, is \enquote{not a number}, and can be either quiet
% or signalling (\emph{not yet}: this distinction is currently
% unsupported);
% \end{itemize}
% Normal floating point numbers are stored in base $10$, with up to $16$
% significant figures.
%
% On input, a normal floating point number consists of:
% \begin{itemize}
% \item \meta{sign}: a possibly empty string of |+| and |-| characters;
% \item \meta{significand}: a non-empty string of digits together with zero
% or one dot;
% \item \meta{exponent} optionally: the character |e| or |E|, followed by a
% possibly empty string of |+|~and~|-| tokens, and a non-empty string
% of digits.
% \end{itemize}
% The sign of the resulting number is |+| if \meta{sign} contains an
% even number of |-|, and |-| otherwise, hence, an empty \meta{sign}
% denotes a non-negative input. The stored significand is obtained from
% \meta{significand} by omitting the decimal separator and leading zeros,
% and rounding to $16$ significant digits, filling with trailing zeros
% if necessary. In particular, the value stored is exact if the input
% \meta{significand} has at most $16$ digits. The stored \meta{exponent}
% is obtained by combining the input \meta{exponent} ($0$ if absent)
% with a shift depending on the position of the significand and the number
% of leading zeros.
%
% A special case arises if the resulting \meta{exponent} is either too
% large or too small for the floating point number to be
% represented. This results either in an overflow (the number is then
% replaced by $\pm\infty$), or an underflow (resulting in $\pm 0$).
%
% The result is thus $\pm 0$ if and only if \meta{significand} contains no
% non-zero digit (\emph{i.e.}, consists only in characters~|0|, and an
% optional period), or if there is an underflow. Note that a
% single dot is currently a valid floating point number, equal to~$+0$,
% but that is not guaranteed to remain true.
%
% The \meta{significand} must be non-empty, so |e1| and |e-1| are not
% valid floating point numbers. Note that the latter could be mistaken
% with the difference of \enquote{\texttt{e}} and $1$. To avoid
% confusions, the base of natural logarithms cannot be input as |e| and
% should be input as \texttt{exp(1)} or \cs[module = fp]{c_e_fp} (which is faster).
%
% Special numbers are input as follows:
% \begin{itemize}
% \item \texttt{inf} represents $+\infty$, and can be preceded by any
% \meta{sign}, yielding $\pm\infty$ as appropriate.
% \item \texttt{nan} represents a (quiet) non-number. It can be
% preceded by any sign, but that sign is ignored.
% \item Any unrecognizable string triggers an error, and produces a
% \nan{}.
% \item Note that commands such as \tn{infty}, \tn{pi}, or \tn{sin}
% \emph{do not} work in floating point expressions. They may
% silently be interpreted as completely unexpected numbers, because
% integer constants (allowed in expressions) are commonly stored as
% mathematical characters.
% \end{itemize}
%
% \subsection{Precedence of operators}
% \label{sec:l3fp:fp-precedence}
%
% We list here all the operations supported in floating point
% expressions, in order of decreasing precedence: operations listed
% earlier bind more tightly than operations listed below them.
% \begin{itemize}
% \item Function calls (\texttt{sin}, \texttt{ln}, \emph{etc}).
% \item Binary |**| and |^| (right associative).
% \item Unary |+|, |-|, |!|.
% \item Implicit multiplication by juxtaposition (\texttt{2pi})
% when neither factor is in parentheses.
% \item Binary |*| and |/|, implicit multiplication by juxtaposition with parentheses (for instance \texttt{3(4+5)}).
% \item Binary |+| and |-|.
% \item Comparisons |>=|, |!=|, |<?|, \emph{etc}.
% \item Logical \texttt{and}, denoted by |&&|.
% \item Logical \texttt{or}, denoted by \verb+||+.
% \item Ternary operator |?:| (right associative).
% \item Comma (to build tuples).
% \end{itemize}
% The precedence of operations can be overridden using parentheses.
% In particular, the precedence of juxtaposition implies that
% \begin{align*}
% \mathtt{1/2pi} & = 1/(2\pi), \\
% \mathtt{1/2pi(pi+pi)} & = (2\pi)^{-1}(\pi+\pi) \simeq 1, \\
% \mathtt{sin 2pi} & = \sin(2)\pi \neq 0, \\
% \mathtt{2\char`\^2max(3,5)} & = 2^2 \max(3,5) = 20, \\
% \mathtt{1in/1cm} & = (1\mathrm{in})/(1\mathrm{cm}) = 2.54 .
% \end{align*}
% Functions are called on the value of their argument, contrarily to
% \TeX{} macros.
%
% \subsection{Operations} \label{sec:l3fp:fp-operations}
%
% We now present the various operations allowed in floating point
% expressions, from the lowest precedence to the highest. When used as
% a truth value, a floating point expression is \texttt{false} if it is
% $\pm 0$, and \texttt{true} otherwise, including when it is \nan{} or a
% tuple such as $(0,0)$. Tuples are only supported to some extent by
% operations that work with truth values (|?:|, \verb"||", |&&|, |!|),
% by comparisons (|!<=>?|), and by |+|, |-|, |*|, |/|. Unless otherwise
% specified, providing a tuple as an argument of any other operation
% yields the \enquote{invalid operation} exception and a \nan{} result.
%
% \begin{function}[tested = m3fp-logic002, module = {}]{?:}
% \begin{syntax}
% \cs{fp_eval:n} \{ \meta{operand_1} |?| \meta{operand_2} |:| \meta{operand_3} \}
% \end{syntax}
% The ternary operator |?:| results in \meta{operand_2} if
% \meta{operand_1} is true (not $\pm 0$), and \meta{operand_3} if \meta{operand_1}
% is false ($\pm 0$). All three \meta{operands} are evaluated in all
% cases; they may be tuples. The operator is right associative, hence
% \begin{verbatim}
% \fp_eval:n

% 1 + 3 > 4 ? 1 :
% 2 + 4 > 5 ? 2 :
% 3 + 5 > 6 ? 3 : 4

% following |:| is taken, and $2 + 4 > 5$ is compared; since this is

% \section{Disclaimer and roadmap}
%
% The package may break down if the escape character is among
% |0123456789_+|, or if it receives a \TeX{} primitive conditional affected
% by \cs{exp_not:N}.
%
% The following need to be done. I'll try to time-order the items.
% \begin{itemize}
% \item Function to count items in a tuple (and to determine if something is a tuple).
% \item Decide what exponent range to consider.
% \item Support signalling \texttt{nan}.
% \item Modulo and remainder, and rounding function |quantize| (and its friends analogous to |trunc|, |ceil|, |floor|).
% \item \cs{fp_format:nn} \Arg{fpexpr} \Arg{format}, but what should
% \meta{format} be? More general pretty printing?
% \item Add |and|, |or|, |xor|? Perhaps under the names \texttt{all},
% \texttt{any}, and \texttt{xor}?
% \item Add $\log(x,b)$ for logarithm of $x$ in base $b$.
% \item \texttt{hypot} (Euclidean length).
% Cartesian-to-polar transform.
% \item Hyperbolic functions \texttt{cosh}, \texttt{sinh}, \texttt{tanh}.
% \item Inverse hyperbolics.
% \item Base conversion, input such as \texttt{0xAB.CDEF}.
% \item Factorial (not with |!|), gamma function.
% \item Improve coefficients of the \texttt{sin} and \texttt{tan}
% series.
% \item Treat upper and lower case letters identically in
% identifiers, and ignore underscores.
% \item Add an |array(1,2,3)| and |i=complex(0,1)|.
% \item Provide an experimental |map| function? Perhaps easier to
% implement if it is a single character, |@sin(1,2)|?
% \item Provide an |isnan| function analogue of \cs{fp_if_nan:nTF}?
% \item Support keyword arguments?
% \end{itemize}
% \pkg{Pgfmath} also provides box-measurements (depth, height, width), but
% boxes are not possible expandably.
%
% Bugs, and tests to add.
% \begin{itemize}
% \item Check that functions are monotonic when they should.
% \item Add exceptions to |?:|, |!<=>?|, |&&|, \verb"||", and |!|.
% \item Logarithms of numbers very close to $1$ are inaccurate.
% \item When rounding towards $-\infty$, |\dim_to_fp:n {0pt}| should
% return $-0$, not $+0$.
% \item The result of $(\pm0)+(\pm0)$, of $x+(-x)$, and of $(-x)+x$
% should depend on the rounding mode.
% \item \texttt{0e9999999999} gives a \TeX{} \enquote{number too
% large} error.
% \item Subnormals are not implemented.
% \end{itemize}
%
% Possible optimizations/improvements.
% \begin{itemize}
% \item Document that \pkg{l3trial/l3fp-types} introduces tools for
% adding new types.
% \item In subsection~\ref{sec:l3fp:fp-floats}, write a grammar.
% \item It would be nice if the \texttt{parse} auxiliaries for each
% operation were set up in the corresponding module, rather than
% centralizing in \pkg{l3fp-parse}.
% \item Some functions should get an |_o| ending to indicate that they
% expand after their result.
% \item More care should be given to distinguish expandable/restricted
% expandable (auxiliary and internal) functions.
% \item The code for the \texttt{ternary} set of functions is ugly.
% \item There are many |~| missing in the doc to avoid bad line-breaks.
% \item The algorithm for computing the logarithm of the significand
% could be made to use a $5$ terms Taylor series instead of $10$
% terms by taking $c = 2000/(\lfloor 200x\rfloor +1) \in [10,95]$
% instead of $c\in [1,10]$. Also, it would then be possible to
% simplify the computation of $t$. However, we would then have to
% hard-code the logarithms of $44$ small integers instead of $9$.
% \item Improve notations in the explanations of the division
% algorithm (\pkg{l3fp-basics}).
% \item Understand and document \cs[no-index]{__fp_basics_pack_weird_low:NNNNw}
% and \cs[no-index]{__fp_basics_pack_weird_high:NNNNNNNNw} better. Move the
% other \texttt{basics_pack} auxiliaries to \pkg{l3fp-aux} under a
% better name.
% \item Find out if underflow can really occur for trigonometric
% functions, and redoc as appropriate.
% \item Add bibliography. Some of Kahan's articles, some previous
% \TeX{} fp packages, the international standards,\ldots{}
% \item Also take into account the \enquote{inexact} exception?
% \item Support multi-character prefix operators (\emph{e.g.}, |@/| or
% whatever)?
