+% Mathematics (the challenge of the "down" and "up" macros)
% ===========
%
% In the entire discussion here, "uu" stands for some core unit,
-% or some unit corresponding to a dimension > 1pt. For the case
-% of a unit corresponding to a dimension < 1pt, i.e. to
-% \texdimenwithunit macro added at 0.99, refer to the
-% comments of issue #2 on the tracker site.
+% or some unit corresponding to an internal dimension > 1pt.
%
% Is T sp attainable from unit "uu"?.
% If not, what is largest dimension < Tsp which is attainable?
% Here we suppose T>0.
%
-% phi>1, psi=1/phi, psi<1.
+% D uu --> N = round(D * 65536) --> T = trunc (N * phi)
%
-% U(N,phi)=trunc(N phi) is the strictly increasing sequence,
-% indexed by non-negative integers, of attainable dimensions.
-% (in sp unit)
+% phi>1 is the conversion factor associated to "uu"
+% psi=1/phi, psi<1. Define U(N, phi) = trunc (N * phi)
+%
+% U(N,phi) is thus the strictly increasing sequence,
+% indexed by non-negative integers, of non-negative
+% attainable dimensions. (in sp unit)
+%
+% T>0, then:
%
% U(N)<= T < U(N+1) iff N = ceil((T+1)psi) - 1
% U(M)< T <= U(M+1) iff M = ceil(T psi) - 1
%
-% Stumbling block
-% ---------------
+% In other words:
+%
+% - the largest attainable dimension not exceeding T sp
+% is obtained via the integer "Zd = ceil((T+1)psi) - 1 = N",
+% (i.e. find D with Zd=round(65536 D) then "D uu" is "down" approximation)
+%
+% - the smallest attainable dimension at least equal to T sp
+% is obtained from the integer "Zu = ceil(T psi) = M + 1"
+%
+% - the two "Z"'s are either equal (i.e. T is attained) or Zu=Zd+1.
+%
+% The round((T+0.5)*psi) based approach (basis of the "\texdimenUU" macros)
+% -------------------------------------
+%
+% Recall in all of this T > 0. And phi>1, psi=1/phi<1.
+%
+% Let's return to our analysis of the
+%
+% U(N)<= T < U(N+1) and U(M)< T <= U(M+1)
+%
+% equations. We will also use the N=Zd, and M+1=Zu notations.
+%
+% case1: M = N, i.e. Zd<Zu, i.e. T is not attainable:
+% M=N=Zd < T psi < (T+1) psi <= N+1=Zu
+%
+% Then clearly R = round((T+0.5)psi) is either Zd or Zu.
+% We will not know which one before computing trunc(R phi)
+% and check if it is < T or > T.
+%
+% As will be explained later trunc(R phi) can be computed very
+% easily by hijacking TeX's handling of dimensions, we don't
+% have to launch into \numexpr evaluations for that.
+%
+% case2: M = N - 1, i.e. T = Zd = Zu is attained:
+% T psi <= N < (T+1) psi, T = trunc(N phi)
+%
+% Let v=(T+0.5)psi. As v = T psi + 0.5 psi it is < N+0.5
+% And as v = (T+1)psi - 0.5psi it is > N - 0.5.
+% So R = round(v) = N.
+%
+% We thus have the initial observation which was at the core of this
+% package initial release:
+%
+% - compute R = round((T+0.5) psi)
+%
+% - if T is attained, then T = trunc(R * phi)
+%
+% - if T is not attained then either { Zd = R and Zu = R+1 } or
+% {Zd = R-1 and Zu = R}.
+%
+% How do we check if R = Zd or Zu? We need to evaluate trunc(R phi) and
+% compare it with T. This trunc(R phi) can be computed the following way:
%
-% The stumbling block is that computing "ceil((T+1)psi) - 1" without
-% overflow is not obvious: yes \numexpr/\dimexpr allow so-called
-% "scaling operations" but only in the "rounding up" variant.
+% - obtain D pt from \the\dimexpr R sp. Knuth's algorithm guarantees
+% that R = round(D * 65536)
%
-% If we attempt computing the ceil(x) function via round(x+0.5),
-% for example with psi=100/7227 which corresponds to the unit "in",
-% this necessitates evaluating:
+% - then D uu where uu is the unit with conversion factor phi is
+% converted by TeX into "trunc(R phi) sp", i.e. trunc(R phi) =
+% \number\dimexpr Duu\relax, where D pt = \the\dimexpr Rsp\relax.
%
-% round((((T+1)*200)+7227)/14454)
+% Conclusion:
%
-% But as far as I can tell currently, for this we need to be able
-% to evaluate without overflow (T+1)*200+7227 and this limits to
-% T's which are (roughly) such that 100 T is less than \maxdimen.
+% 1. the macro \texdimenuu does the one-liner R=round((T+0.5) psi)
+% then \the\dimexpr Rsp\relax and strips the "pt" unit
%
-% A work-around
-% -------------
+% 2. macros \texdimenuuup and \texdimenuudown go further and check
+% which one of Zd or Zu is R, obtaining thus Zd or Zu.
+% [update: this describes the macros prior to 1.0 release]
%
-% The rest of the discussion is about an algorithm providing an
-% alternative route to N, using \numexpr/\dimexpr/TeX facilities,
-% and working with (almost, as we will see) the full range of allowed
-% T's, 0 < T <= \maxdimen. (that the algorithm works for T=0 is to be
-% checked manually after the main discussion).
+% For units with conversion factor phi>2, a simplification is possible.
+% In that case let X = round(T psi) (it has the advantage compared to
+% R that we can apply the formula without checking the sign of T).
%
-% Let's return to the U(N)<= T < U(N+1) and U(M)< T <= U(M+1) equations.
+% Going back to our earlier analyis, now with psi < 0.5 (1uu>2pt)
%
-% Either (recall in all of this T > 0):
+% case1: T is not attainable
+% M=N=Zd < T psi < (T+1) psi <= N+1=Zu
+% As Zd < T psi < Zu, we have round(T psi) = Zd or Zu
%
-% case1: M = N, i.e. T is not attainable, M=N < T psi < (T+1) psi <= N+1
-% case2: M = N - 1, i.e. T is attained, T psi <= N < (T+1) psi, T = trunc(N phi)
+% case2: T is attained, i.e. T psi <= N < (T+1) psi.
+% As psi<0.5, and T psi + psi > N, we have T psi > N - 0.5.
+% And T psi <= N so N = round(T psi).
%
-% Let X = round(T psi). And let Y = trunc(X phi). We will explain later
-% how X and Y can be computed using \numexpr/\dimexpr/TeX.
+% So, for psi < 0.5, the X=round(T psi) can play the same role as
+% R=round((T+0.5)psi). If T is attained, we get the decimal D from this
+% X and if T is not attained we know that X is either Zd or Zu.
%
-% case1: X can be N or N+1. It will be N+1 iff Y > T.
-% case2: X can be N or N-1. It will be N iff trunc((X+1)phi)>T.
+% The computations of X and Y=trunc(X phi) can be done independently of
+% sign of T. But the final test has to be changed to Y < T if T < 0 and
+% then one must replace X by X+1. So we must filter out the sign of the
+% input.
%
-% This is not convenient: if Y < T it could be that we are in case 2
-% but to decide we must check if trunc((X+1) phi) = T or not, so
-% this means a second computation.
+% Going back to the 1<phi<2 case, psi>0.5, then it would be slightly
+% less costly to compute X = round(T psi) than R = round((T + 0.5) psi),
+% but if we then realize that trunc(X phi) < T we do not yet know if
+% trunc((X+1) phi) = T or is > T, i.e. we don't know if Zd =X or X+1,
+% and we can not tell yet if T is attained or not.
%
-% If psi < 0.5
-% ------------
+% In contrast if we find out that trunc(R phi)<T, we then know for sure
+% that Zd=R, Zu=R+1 and that T is not attained.
%
-% The situation then simplifies:
+% Problems with \maxdimen in the obtention of Zu and Zd
+% -----------------------------------------------------
%
-% case1: X can be N or N+1. It will be N+1 iff Y = trunc(X phi) > T.
-% case2: X is necessarily N.
+% Obtaining R = round((T+0.5)psi) has no risk of overflow.
+% But checking as described above which one of Zd or Zu (or both)
+% is R goes via a test computation which will cause overflow
+% if by bad luck R = Zu and Zu will give rise to a decimal D
+% such that D uu > \maxdimen.
%
-% Thus:
-% a) compute X = round(T psi)
-% b) compute Y = trunc(X phi) and test if Y > T. If true, we
-% were in case 1, replace X by X - 1, else we were either
-% in case 1 or case 2, and we leave X as it is.
-% We have thus found N.
+% For T=\maxdimen (or very close) this is what happens for the units
+% "dd", "nc", and "in".
%
-% The operation Y = trunc(X phi) can be achieved this way:
-% i) use \the\dimexpr to convert X sp into D pt,
-% ii) use \the\numexpr\dimexpr to convert "D uu" into sp.
-% These steps give Y.
+% Besides, it turns out that this test which is done to decide whether
+% R=Zu or R=Zd, and on which the initial implementation of the macros
+% "up" and "down" was done at 0.9 gamma release is a bit costly.
%
-% This way we find the maximal dimension at most T sp exactly
-% representable in "uu" unit.
+% At 1.0 release, all the "up" and "down" macros were re-implemented
+% via a more stubborn usage of the ceil() based formulae for Zd and Zu.
+% This made all usable even with \maxdimen input and besided, proved
+% on average slightly faster.
%
-% The computations of X and Y can be done independently of sign of T.
-% But the final test has to be changed to Y < T if T < 0 and then
-% one must replace X by X+1. So we must filter out the sign of the input.
+% Overcoming the ceil() stumbling block (i.e. the 1.0 manner for "up/down")
+% -------------------------------------
%
-% If the goal is only to find a decimal D such that "D uu" is
-% exactly T sp in the case this is possible, then things are simpler
-% because from X = round(T psi) we get D such as X sp is same as D pt
-% and "D uu" will work.
-% We don't have to take sign into account for this computation.
-% But if T sp was not attainable we don't know if this X will give
-% a D such that D uu < T sp or D uu > T sp.
+% I will in what follows refer to trunc(), floor() or ceil() only for
+% positive arguments, obtained as ratios x/y or sometimes as a numexpr
+% "scaling" operation" x*y/z which uses temporarily use doubled
+% precision.
%
-% If psi > 0.5
-% ------------
+% As \numexpr's x/y is round(x/y), with rounding away from zero, we have
+% access to floor(t) for t>=0 as round(t+0.5)-1 and for t>0 also as
+% round(t-0.5). The former may cause overflow as it involves
+% (2x+y)/(2y) but the latter (2x-y)/(2y) will not overflow if x comes
+% from a dimension as 2x<2**31 then.
%
-% For example unit "bp" has phi=803/800.
+% ceil(t) is more complex as it is floor(t)+1 only for t not an integer.
+% Let's explain how to overcome the challenge for Zd and the "in" unit,
+% i.e. a conversion factor of 7227/100.
%
-% It is then not true that if T sp is attainable, the X = round(T psi)
-% will always work.
+% We want Zd = ceil((T+1)*100/7227) - 1, with T assumed positive.
%
-% But it is true that R = round((T + 0.5) psi) will always work.
-% Here we must use -0.5 if T < 0, though.
+% Let T = k*7227 + r with 0<= r < 7227, 0<=k, and r>0 if k=0.
%
-% This R=round((T+0.5) psi) can always be computed via \numexpr because 2T+1
-% will not trigger arithmetic overflow.
+% (T+1)*100/7227 becomes 100*k + (r+1)*100/7227 and thus
%
-% So this gives an approach to find a D such that "D uu" is exactly
-% T sp when this is possible.
+% Zd = 100 * k + ceil(x) - 1
%
-% If Tsp (positive) is not attainable, this R however can produce
-% either N or N+1.
+% with x = n*100/7227, and n = 1+r, so 0<n<=7227
%
-% But we can decide what happened by computing Z = trunc(R phi).
-% If and only if Z > T this means R was N+1.
+% Here we have a nice situation 0 < x <= 100. Then:
+%
+% ceil(x) = 100 - floor(100 - x)
+% = 100 - (round(100 - x + 0.5) - 1)
+% = 101 - round(100 * (1 - n/7227) + 0.5)
+% = 101 - round((200 * (7227 - n) + 7227)/14454)
%
-% It is slightly less costly to compute X = round(T psi) than
-% R = round((T + 0.5) psi),
-% but if we then realize that trunc(X phi) < T we do not yet know
-% if trunc((X+1) phi) = T or is > T. So we proceed via R, not X,
-% to not have to make a second computation if a dimension comparison
-% test goes awry.
+% We can thus achieve the computation of Zd = ceil((T+1)*100/7227) - 1
+% for T>0 without overflow in \numexpr this way:
%
-% To recapitulate: we have our algorithm for all units to find out
-% maximal dimension exactly attainable in "uu" unit and at most equal
-% to (positive) T sp.
+% k = floor(T/7227) = round(T/7227 - 0.5)
+% = round((2*T - 7227) / 14454) (T>0 used here)
%
-% Unfortunately the check that Y (in case psi < 0.5) or Z (in case psi >
-% 0.5) verifies or not Y > T may trigger a Dimension too large error if
-% T sp was near non-attainable \maxdimen. It turns out this sad
-% situation happens only for the units `dd`, `nc`, and `in`, and T sp
-% very close to \maxdimen (like for all units apart from `pt`, `bp`,
-% `nd`, the \maxdimen is not attainable, and by bad luck for `dd`, `nc`,
-% and `in`, the X will correspond to a decimal D such that Duu>\maxdimen
-% is the nearest virtually attaible dimensions from above not from
-% below; see the README.md for the tabulation of the maximal usable inputs).
-%
-% Regarding the \texdimen<uu> macros, and units with phi > 2, I
-% hesitated using either the round((T+0.5)psi) or round(T psi), but for
-% Tsp = \maxdimen, both formulas turned out to give the same result for
-% all such units, so I chose for these \texdimen<uu> macros and the
-% units with phi>2 to use the simpler round(T psi) which does not need
-% to check the sign of T.
-%
-% For the "up" and "down" macros, we again use the round(T psi), but do
-% have to check the sign anyhow. We could also have used the
-% round((T+0.5)psi) which requires a sign check too, but it costs a bit
-% more. It would have allowed though to share the same codebase for all
-% units, here we have to prepare some slightly different shared macros
-% for the first batch bp, nd, dd and the second batch mm, pc, nc, cc,
-% cm, in.

+%
+% Zd = 100 * k + 100 - round( (201*7227 - 200*(r+1))/14454 )

+% "no test" ceil()-based approach to up and down macros (release 1.0)
+% =====================================================
+%
+% The notation <u/v> means u/v in numexpr, which does rounding
+% away from zero. It is essential that the argument be >-0.5 else <x+1>
+% not same as <x>+1. All formulae are overflow free.
+%
+% The comments are for T > 0.
+%
+% Roughly such an approach works for phi = a/b > 1, such that:
+%
+% a*(2b+1)<2**31 if a is odd, <2**32 if a is even
+%
+% This is true for all core units with quite some margin, the one with
+% largest a*b being phi=7227/2540 for "mm".
+%
+% Note: for a unit such as "ex" or "em" where morally b=65536=2**16,
+% this limits to a<=16383 if a is odd and to a<=32766 if a is even.
+% Thus the general \texdimenwithunit{dim1}{dim2} (which for dim2<1pt
+% computes basically an "up" value) can *not imitate fully* this scheme.
+%
+% The macros and formulas in the comments were obtained from a template
+% (see file generateupdownmacros.py at the project repository),
+% and we could actually combine them into a generic macro handling
+% general a/b (assuming above bounds are verified).
+% But for the the sake of efficiency, this is "rolled-out" here unit per unit.

+% Mathematics and Algorithm ("both mm and bp", added at release 1.0)
+% =========================
+% We start from a dimension expressed in sp unit, "T sp". Assume T positive.
+% We know how to get largest "X sp <= T sp" which is exactly expressible
+% in mm unit
+% i.e. can be written X=trunc(a 7227/2540) for some non-negative integer a.
+% We want to achieve X=trunc(b 803/800) for some b.
+%
+% Only the congruence of X modulo 803 matters for this.
+% It turns out that the mod 803 impossible values are 267, 535, 802.
+% As pointed out by Ruixi Zhang on the package repo issue #10,
+% when a<--a+2540, X increases by 7227=9*803 hence the value
+% modulo 803 does not change. Thus only "a modulo 2540" matters
+% to check if X(a) is attainable with bp unit. Ruixi Zhang found by
+% brute force that there are modulo 2540 nine excluded a-values
+%
+% Rather than checking if "a mod. 2540" avoids the 9 Ruixi Zhang values
+% or if "X mod. 803" avoids 267, 535, 802, we will simply basically
+% check if X sp = \texdimenbp{X sp}bp, as this approach is probably
+% about the same cost or even less than computing "X mod. 803" and
+% correspondingly branching.
+%
+% The key is that if "a" is bad, then "a-1" is automatically good as
+% pointed out by R.Z. on #10, which can be seen without knowing the 9
+% bad congruences, simply by noticing that a<--a-1 modifies X either to
+% X-2 or X-3, so if X was bad certainly the new one is not.
+%
+% Once "a" has gotten its final value, we apply "\the\dimexpr a sp
+% = D pt" trick to recover the D such that "D mm" gives rise to the found
+% dimension. We go via this "Dmm" intermediary also to express the final
+% result as "X sp", because anyhow the "X" we worked with and had in
+% our token stream has to be recomputed if a<--a-1, so lets always
+% recompute it from final "a", and this goes via "D mm" (but see
+% the paragraph MEMO for alternative for this trunc(a 7227/2540) step).
+%
+% I will copy here the style I used for bothincm expansion triggering
+% via an already positioned \dimexpr waiting to output final result.

% If f/65536<1, all dimensions Tsp are attainable as D uu. Indeed
% D uu is parsed by TeX via N=round(D*65536), then T=trunc(N*phi),
% with phi=f/65536. Starting from T we need to find an N such that
-% T/phi <= N< (T+1)/phi. We first consider v=(T+0.5)/phi. As its
-% distance to the extremities is 0.5/phi>0.5,(*) its rounding M
+% T/phi <= N< (T+1)/phi.
+%
+% This is equivalent to ceil(T/phi)<= N < ceil((T+1)/phi)
+%
+% Now obsolete remark: let v=(T+0.5)/phi. As its
+% distance to the extremities is 0.5/phi>0.5, (phi>1) its rounding M
% to an integer verifies automatically T/phi < M < (T+1)/phi, so
-% is a candidate. The TeX core conversion of Msp to a Dpt with
-% D a decimal of at most 5 fractional digits will provide a D
-% such that indeed M=round(D*65536).
+% is a valid candidate. This was used at 0.99 release.
+% (it is funny that N=round((2T+1)*32768/f) works for all f>0
+% *except* f=65536).
%
-% (*) attention that this fails if phi=1, we definitely can not
-% use the N=round((2T+1)*32768/f) formula for f=65536, it gives
-% N=T+1 in place of N=T... It is funny the formula works for all
-% f apart from f=65536...
+% The 1.0 release chooses to implement the ceil(T/phi) formula rather as
+% it is closer to naive expectation "dim1/dim2" of a division.
%
-% Attention that if T=0, the M=round(0.5/phi) will be at least 1,
-% so the produced decimal D will not be 0.0, although it will
-% be true that D \dimexpr f sp\relax produces the zero dimension,
-% the above analysis being correct even for T=0.
+% It is not obvious to compute this ceil(T/phi) without overflow.
%
% Implementation
% ==============
%
-% \texdimenwithunit{dim1}{dim2}. dim2>0 assumed.
+% \texdimenwithunit{dim1}{dim2}
+%
+% First done at 0.99, then refactored at 1.0:
+% - to add support for dim2<0pt
+% - to handle differently the dim2<1pt case and make the output
+% closer to mathematical dim1/dim2
+%
+% To handle dim2<0pt, we simply simultaneously do
+% dim1<-- (-dim1) and dim2<-- (-dim2).
+%
+% dim2=0pt is not intercepted and will cause division by zero low-level
+% error. Code comments below were not adjusted and handle only
+% dim2>0pt.
+%
% We first get f from dim2 and branch according to whether f>65536,
-% f=65536 or f<65536.
+% or f<=65536.
% We will also need to check the sign of T (dim1=T sp).
-% We then compute in both branches round((2T+1)*32768/f), but
-% in an indirect way in the f<65536 branch to avoid overflow.
-% We will need also to intercept T=0 to avoid producing a non
-% pleasing positive D in that case (still correct for f<65536;
-% this is issue #3).
-%
-% In the f<65536 branch we first do the Euclidean division
-% 2T+1 = k*2*f + R with 0<=R<2f. The k is obtained as round((2T+1-f)/(2f))
-% which can be computed in a numexpr (and never gives -1 even for T=0)
-% Then (2T+1)*32768/f=65536*k + R*32768/f
-% Then R*32768/f<=65536-32768/f<65536-32768/65536=65536-0.5
-% Hence the numexpr evaluation gives an integer B<65536.
-%
-% N.B.: if f>=65536, we still have R*32768/f<65536 as R<2f
-% so the only difference is that the B could be here 65536
-%
-% From \the\dimexpr Bsp, we get a decimal E < 1, so E=0.ddddd
-% (or less digits) and the looked for D will be the contatenation
-% k.ddddd with k as obtained earlier. This procedure has no possible
-% arithmetic overflow.
-%
-% #2 is assumed positive. The case #2=1pt=65536sp is special, and
-% must be filtered out (issues #4, #6).
-% pre-multiplication of #1 by 2 here
-\def\texdimenwithunit#1#2{\expandafter\texdimenwithunit_

+% f>65536: we compute round((2T+1)*32768/f)
+% f=65536: merged with f<65536 branch
+% f<65536: we compute ceil(T*65536/f)
+%
+% rationale: round((2T+1)*32768/f) which was used at 0.99
+% would be ok [if f<65536 not f=65536 ! cf #3, #4]
+% also for this branch
+%
+% BUT it diverges noticeably from naive expectation
+% dim1/dim2 "=" T*65536/f the more so when f is small.
+% See issue #16 and also the discussion at #13.
+%
+% As was explained in comments to issue #2 which asked for a
+% \texdimenwithunit the ceil(T*65536/f) is the smallest
+% allowable choice
+%
+% To avoid arithmetic overflow issues we first do the euclidean
+% division T = k f + r, 0<= r < f
+%
+% The final result in sp units will be k*65536 + ceil(r * 65536/f)
+% We don't do this k*65536 explicitly as it may overflow
+% but output the decimal k + E where E is the conversion
+% to a decimal 0.ddddd or 1.0 of "ceil(r * 65536/f) sp"
+% (which is at most 65536sp=1pt so E is at most 1.0).
+%
+% To compute the Euclidean quotient k in \numexpr we use there
+% (2T-f)/(2f) i.e. round((2T-f)/2f) = trunc(T/f)
+% as we are careful to never have T=0 inthere...
+%
+% Computing C = ceil(r * 65536/f) in \numexpr is the delicate
+% part, as r can be as large as f-1 hence 65535 and r*65536 would
+% overflow. We could compute R=round(r*65536/f) ("scaling operation")
+% then C=R+1 if R*f-65536*r<0, else C=R.
+%
+% The problem is then: how to get the sign of R*f-65536*r without
+% overflow? I considered various ways.
+%
+% But in the end, opted for simply this:
+% - get R=round(r*65536/f) as \the\numexpr r*65536/f ("scaling" no overflow)
+% - hence get E pt=\the\dimexpr R sp
+% - let TeX compute E<f sp>: if it turns out < r sp,
+% then C=R+1,
+% else C=R. Done.
