\_codedecl \newif {Special if-macros, is-macros and loops <2023-01-16>} % preloaded in format
\_doc ----------------------------
\secc Classical \code{\\newif}
The \`\newif` macro implements boolean value.
It works as in plain \TeX. It means that
after `\newif\ifxxx` you can use `\xxxtrue` or
`\xxxfalse` to set the boolean value and use `\ifxxx true\else false\fi`
to test this value. The default value is false.
The macro \`\_newifi` enables to declare `\_ifxxx` and to use `\_xxxtrue` and
`\_xxxfalse`. This means that it is usable for the internal namespace
(`_`prefixed macros).
\_cod ----------------------------
\_def\_newif #1{\_ea\_newifA \_string #1\_relax#1}
\_ea\_def \_ea\_newifA \_string\if #1\_relax#2{%
\_sdef{#1true}{\_let#2=\_iftrue}%
\_sdef{#1false}{\_let#2=\_iffalse}%
\_let#2=\_iffalse
}
\_def\_newifi #1{\_ea\_newifiA \string#1\_relax#1}
\_ea\_def \_ea\_newifiA \_string\_if #1\_relax#2{%
\_sdef{_#1true}{\_let#2=\_iftrue}%
\_sdef{_#1false}{\_let#2=\_iffalse}%
\_let#2=\_iffalse
}
\_public \newif ;
\_doc ----------------------------
\`\afterfi` `{<what to do>}<ignored>\fi` closes condition by `\fi` and processes
<what to do>. Usage:
\begtt \catcode`<=13
\if<something> \afterfi{<result is true>} \else \afterfi{<result is false>} \fi
\endtt
Nested `\if..\afterfi{\if..\afterfi{...}\fi}\fi` are possible. Another approach is mentioned
in \ulink[http://petr.olsak.net/optex/optex-tricks.html\#fiinif]{OpTeX trick 0098}
which also solves the `\fi` in `\if` problem.
\_cod ----------------------------
\_long\_def \_afterfi#1#2\_fi{\_fi#1}
\_long\_def \afterfi#1#2\fi{\_fi#1}
\_doc ----------------------------
\secc Loops
The \`\loop` `<codeA> \ifsomething <codeB>` \`\repeat` loops `<codeA><codeB>`
until `\ifsomething` is false. Then `<codeB>` is not executed and loop is
finished. This works like in plain \TeX, but implementation is somewhat
better (you can use `\else` clause after the `\ifsomething`).
There are public version `\loop...\repeat` and private version
\`\_loop` ...\`\_repeat`. You cannot mix both versions in one loop.
The `\loop` macro keeps its original plain TeX meaning. It is not
expandable and nested `\loop`s are possible only in a \TeX/ group.
\_cod ----------------------------
\_long\_def \_loop #1\_repeat{\_def\_body{#1}\_iterate}
\_long\_def \loop #1\repeat{\_def\_body{#1}\_iterate}
\_let \_repeat=\_fi % this makes \loop...\if...\repeat skippable
\_let \repeat=\_fi
\_def \_iterate {\_body \_ea \_iterate \_fi}
\_doc -----------------------------
{\_let\_moremainpoints=\_relax
\`\foreach` `<list>`\`\do` `{<what>}`
repeats `<what>` for each element of the
`<list>`. The `<what>` can include `#1` which is substituted by each
element of the `<list>`. The macro is expandable.
\nl
\`\foreach` `<list>`\`\do` `<parameter-mask>{<what>}`
reads parameters from <list> repeatedly and does <what> for each such reading.
The parameters are declared by <parameter-mask>. Examples:
\begtt
\foreach (a,1)(b,2)(c,3)\do (#1,#2){#1=#2 }
\foreach word1,word2,word3,\do #1,{Word is #1.}
\foreach A=word1 B=word2 \do #1=#2 {"#1 is set as #2".}
\endtt
Note that `\foreach <list>\do {<what>}` is equivalent to `\foreach <list>\do #1{<what>}`.
Recommendation: it is better to use private variants of \`\_foreach`.
When the user writes `\input tikz` then `\foreach` macro is redefined in
each TikZ environment.
The private variants use \`\_do` separator instead `\do` separator.}

\`\fornum` `<from>..<to>` \`\do` `{<what>}` or

repeats `<what>` for each number from `<from>` to `<to>` (with step `<num>`
or with step one). The `<what>` can include `#1` which is substituted by
current number. The <from>, <to>, <step> parameters can be numeric expressions.
The macro is expandable.\nl
The test in the \`\_fornumB` says: if (<to> $\string<$ <current number>
AND <step> is positive) or if (<to> $>$ <current number> AND <step> is
negative) then close loop by `\_getforstack`. Sorry, the condition is
writen by somewhat cryptoid \TeX/ language.}

\_def\fornumstep#1:#2..#3\do{\_fornumstep #1:#2..#3\_do}
\_doc ----------------------------
The `\foreach` and `\fornum` macros can be nested and arbitrary combined.
When they are nested then use `##1` for the variable of nested level,
`####1` for the variable of second nested level etc. Example:
\begtt
\foreach ABC \do {\fornum 1..5 \do {letter:#1, number: ##1. }}
\endtt
Implementation note:
we cannot use \TeX/-groups for nesting levels because we want to do the
macros expandable. We must implement a special for-stack which saves the
data needed by `\foreach` and `\fornum`. The \`\_putforstack` is used
when `\for*` is initialized and \`\_getforstack` is used when the
`\for*` macro ends. The \`\_forlevel` variable keeps the current nesting
level. If it is zero, then we need not save nor restore any data.

\_doc ----------------------------
User can define own expandable \"foreach" macro by
\`\foreachdef` `\macro <parameter-mask>{<what>}`
which can be used by `\macro {<list>}`. The macro reads repeatedly parameters from <list>
using <parameter-mask> and does <what> for each such reading. For example
\begtt
\foreachdef\mymacro #1,{[#1]}
\mymacro{a,b,cd,efg,}
\endtt
expands to [a][b][cd][efg]. Such user defined macros are more effecive during processing
than `\foreach` itself because they need not to operate with the for-stack.

\_doc ----------------------------
\secc Is-macros
There are a collection of macros
\^`\isempty`, \^`\istoksempty`, \^`\isequal`, \^`\ismacro`,
\^`\isdefined`, \^`\isinlist`, \^`\isfile` and \^`\isfont`
with common syntax:
\begtt \catcode`\<=13
\issomething <params> \iftrue <codeA> \else <codeB> \fi
or
\issomething <params> \iffalse <codeB> \else <codeA> \fi
\endtt
The `\else` part is optional. The `<codeA>` is processed if
`\issomething<params>` generates true condition. The `<codeB>`
is processed if `\issomething<params>` generates false condition.
The `\iftrue` or `\iffalse` is an integral part of this syntax
because we need to keep skippable nested `\if` conditions.
Implementation note:
we read this `\iftrue` or `\iffalse` into unseparated parameter and repeat
it because we need to remove an optional space before this command.
\medskip\noindent
\`\isempty` `{<text>}\iftrue`
is true if the `<text>` is empty. This macro is expandable.\nl
\`\istoksempty` `<tokens variable>\iftrue`
is true if the `<tokens variable>` is empty. It is expandable.
\_cod ----------------------------
\_long\_def \_isempty #1#2{\_if\_relax\_detokenize{#1}\_relax \_else \_ea\_unless \_fi#2}
\_def \_istoksempty #1#2{\_ea\_isempty\_ea{\_the#1}#2}
\_public \isempty \istoksempty ;
\_doc ----------------------------
\`\isequal` `{<textA>}{<textB>}\iftrue`
is true if the <textA> and <textB> are
equal, only from strings point of view, category codes are ignored.
The macro is expandable.
\_cod ----------------------------
\_long\_def\_isequal#1#2#3{\_directlua{%
if "\_luaescapestring{\_detokenize{#1}}"=="\_luaescapestring{\_detokenize{#2}}"
then else tex.print("\_nbb unless") end}#3}
\_public \isequal ;
\_doc ----------------------------
\`\ismacro` `\macro{text}\iftrue` is true if macro is defined as {<text>}.
Category codes are ignored in this testing. The macro is expandable.
\_cod ----------------------------
\_long\_def\_ismacro#1{\_ea\_isequal\_ea{#1}}
\_public \ismacro ;
\_doc ----------------------------
\`\isdefined` `{<csname>}\iftrue` is true if `\<csname>` is defined.
The macro is expandable.
\_cod ----------------------------
\_def\_isdefined #1#2{\_ifcsname #1\_endcsname \_else \_ea\_unless \_fi #2}
\_public \isdefined ;
\_doc ----------------------------
\`\isinlist` `\list{<text>}\iftrue` is true if the
`<text>` is included the macro body of the `\list`.
The category codes are relevant here. The macro is expandable.
\_cod ----------------------------
\_long\_def\_isinlist#1#2{%
\_immediateassignment\_long\_def\_isinlistA##1#2##2\_end/_%
{\_if\_relax\_detokenize{##2}\_relax \_ea\_unless\_fi}%
\_ea\_isinlistA#1\_endlistsep#2\_end/_%
}
\_public \isinlist ;
\_doc -----------------------------
\`\isfile` `{<filename>}\iftrue` is true if the file <filename> exists and are
readable by \TeX.
\_cod -----------------------------
\_newread \_testin
\_def\_isfile #1{%
\_openin\_testin ={#1}\_relax
\_ifeof\_testin \_ea\_unless
\_else \_closein\_testin
\_fi
}
\_public \isfile ;
\_doc -----------------------------
\`\isfont` `{<fontname or [fontfile]>}\iftrue`
is true if a given font exists. The result of this testing
is saved to the \`\_ifexistfam`.
\_cod -----------------------------
\_newifi \_ifexistfam
\_def\_isfont#1#2{%
\_begingroup
\_suppressfontnotfounderror=1
\_font\_testfont={#1}\_relax
\_ifx\_testfont\_nullfont \_def\_tmp{\_existfamfalse \_unless}
\_else \_def\_tmp{\_existfamtrue}\_fi
\_ea \_endgroup \_tmp #2%
}
\_public \isfont ;
\_doc ----------------------------
The macro \`\isnextchar` `<char>{<codeA>}{<codeB>}`
has a different syntax than all other is-macros.
It executes `<codeA>` if next character is equal to <char>.
Else the `<codeB>` is executed. The macro is expandable.
\_cod ----------------------------
\_long\_def\_isnextchar#1#2#3{\_immediateassignment
\_def\_isnextcharA{\_isnextcharB{#1}{#2}{#3}}%
\_immediateassignment\_futurelet \_next \_isnextcharA
}
\_long\_def\_isnextcharB#1{\_ifx\_next#1\_ea\_ignoresecond\_else\_ea\_usesecond\_fi}
\_public \isnextchar ;
\_doc ----------------------------
\`\casesof` `<token> <list of cases>` implements something similar to
the `switch` command known from C language. It is expandable macro. The
<list of cases> is a list of arbitrary number of pairs in the format
`<token>`\,`{<what to do>}` which must be finalized by the pair
`\_finc {<what to do else>}`. The optional spaces after <token>s
and between listed cases are ignored. The usage of \^`\casesof` looks like:
\begtt \catcode`<=13
\casesof <token>
<token-1> {<what to do if token=token-1>}
<token-2> {<what to do if token=token-2>}
...
<token-n> {<what to do if token=token-n>}
\_finc {<what to do in other cases>}
\endtt
The meaning of tokens are compared by `\ifx` primitive.
The parts `<what to do>` can be finalized by a macro which can read more
data from the input stream as its parameters.
\_cod ----------------------------
\_long\_def \_casesof #1#2#3{\_ifx #2\_finc \_ea\_ignoresecond \_else \_ea\_usesecond \_fi
{#3}{\_ifx#1#2\_ea\_ignoresecond \_else \_ea\_usesecond \_fi {\_finc{#3}}{\_casesof#1}}%
}
\_long\_def \_finc #1#2\_finc#3{#1}
\_public \casesof ;
\_doc -----------------------------
\`\xcasesof` `<list of pairs>` extends the features of the macro \^`\casesof`.
Each pair from the `<list of pairs>` is in the format
`{<if statement>}{<what to do>}`, only the last pair must have the different
format: `\_finc {<what to do else>}`. The `<if statement>` can be arbitrary
primitive `\if*` condition (optionally prefixed by `\unless`) and it must be closed
in its expansion. It means that `{\ifnum\mycount>0}` is bad, `{\ifnum\mycount>0 }`
is correct. Optional spaces between parameters are ignored. Example:
\begtt
\message {The \tmpnum has \xcasesof
{\ifnum\tmpnum>0 } {positive}
{\ifnum\tmpnum=0 } {equal to zero}
\_finc {negative} value}
\endtt
The \^`\xcasesof` macro works with principle: first true condition wins,
next conditions are not evaluated.
\_cod -----------------------------
\_long\_def \_xcasesof #1{\_xcasesofA #1\_finc}
\_long\_def \_xcasesofA #1#2\_finc #3{%
\_ifx #1\_finc \_ea\_ignoresecond\_else \_ea\_usesecond\_fi
{#3}{#1#2\_ea\_ignoresecond\_else \_ea\_usesecond\_fi {\_finc{#3}}{\_xcasesof}}%
}
\_public \xcasesof ;
