% \section{Introduction}
%
% The fancynum package is designed to aid the typesetting of numbers,
% particularly (but not exclusively) the ASCII representation of 
% floating point numbers as written by computers.
%
% In the sequel we refer to the glyph used to separate the
% integer and decimal parts of a decimal number as the 
% \emph{decimal symbol}, and that used to group the
% digits of the integer and decimal parts as the 
% \emph{group symbol}.
%
% The author invites suggestions on improvements to the package.
% In particular, any information on the typographic conventions
% for setting numbers in different languages would be most
% welcome.
%
% \section{Usage}
%
% The fancynum package is quite standard in its usage. After
% including the package in the preamble,
% the macro |\fnum| is available in mathematics mode. A call to
% |$\fnum{3.141593e+05}$| will be set as $3{\cdot}141{,}593\times10^{5}$,
% and so on. Further examples can be found in the file |examples.tex|
% included in the distribution.
%
% The operation of the |\fnum| macro can be modified with 
% the commands |\setfnumdsym|, |\setfnumgsym| and |\setfnummsym|,
% which set the value of the decimal, group and multiplication
% symbols, respectively.
%
%\section{Limitations}
%
% The |\fnum| has some limitations on the form of its
% argument:
% \begin{itemize}
% \item A decimal must have at least one digit either
%   side of the decimal symbol;
% \item The optional exponential symbol must be |e|;
% \item If the exponent must have at least one digit.
% \end{itemize}
% Consequently the strings |.312e20|, |312.e20|
% and |3.142E20| are not acceptable arguments.
% I hope to remove these restrictions at some point.
% 
% \section{Package Options}
% The package supports a small number of options. The 
% locale-specific options set default values for all of 
% the typographic parameters. The \textbf{english} option
% uses the centred dot as the decimal symbol and a comma 
% as the group symbol.
% The \textbf{french} option uses the comma as the decimal 
% symbol and a lower dot as the group symbol. Compare
% the English $3{\cdot}141{,}593$ against the French $3{,}141.593$.
% If no local-specific option is specified then English will
% be taken as the default.
%
% The remaining options give specific values over the 
% typographic parameters, and override the locale-specific
% options. 
%
% The \textbf{tight} and \textbf{loose} options specify
% space around the $\times$ in the setting of numbers in 
% exponential form. Compare the loose $2.3\times 10^{3}$ with 
% the tight $2.3{\times}10^{3}$. This option is useful where space
% is at a premium, or may be preferred for {\ae}sthetic reasons.
%
% The \textbf{commas}, \textbf{thinspaces} and  \textbf{plain} options
% specify the group symbol to be used, respectively
% |{,}|, |\,| and |\relax|.
%
% \section{Thanks}
% I am grateful to Heiko Oberdiek, Norman Gray, Michael Downes
% and Donald Arseneau for their assistance on |comp.text.tex|,
% and to Jerzy Kucharczyk for providing a bug report.
%
% \section{Implementation}
%
%    \begin{macrocode}
%<*package>
%    \end{macrocode}
%
% \subsection{Typographic parameters}
%
% The decimal, group and multiplication symbols are stored in the
% global variables |\fn@decimalsym| etc.
% The following macros give access to the values used in the package.
%    \begin{macrocode}
\def\setfnumdsym#1{\gdef\fn@decimalsym{#1}}
\def\setfnumgsym#1{\gdef\fn@groupsym{#1}}
\def\setfnummsym#1{\gdef\fn@multsym{#1}}
%    \end{macrocode}
%
% \subsection{Package options}
%
% The package options are simply calls the macro for the appropriate
% parameter.
%    \begin{macrocode}
\DeclareOption{english}{\setfnumdsym{{\cdot}}\setfnumgsym{{,}}}
\DeclareOption{french}{\setfnumdsym{{,}}\setfnumgsym{{.}}}
\DeclareOption{tight}{\setfnummsym{{\times}}}
\DeclareOption{loose}{\setfnummsym{\times}}
\DeclareOption{commas}{\setfnumgsym{{,}}}
\DeclareOption{thinspaces}{\setfnumgsym{\,}}
\DeclareOption{plain}{\setfnumgsym{\relax}}
%    \end{macrocode}
% We set the default values before processing the options
%    \begin{macrocode}
\ExecuteOptions{english,loose}
\ProcessOptions\relax
%    \end{macrocode}
%
% \subsection{Utility macros}
%
% \begin{macro}{\fn@length}
% Find the length of a string mod 3 (taken directly
% from the example on p.~219 of the \TeX{}book). Here 
% though, a call to |\fn@length| assigns the calculated 
% value the (global) variable |\fn@strlen|.
%    \begin{macrocode}
\newcount\fn@strlen
\def\fn@length#1{\fn@strlen=0 \fn@getlength#1\end}
\def\fn@getlength#1{\ifx #1\end \let\next=\relax \else
  \advance\fn@strlen by1
  \ifnum\fn@strlen=3 \fn@strlen=0 \fi
  \let\next=\fn@getlength\fi \next}
%    \end{macrocode}
%  \end{macro}
%
% \subsection{Typesetting}
%
% \subsubsection{The decimal}
%
% \begin{macro}{\fn@fracpunct}
% Punctuate the fractional part of a decimal. An 
% easy cyclic recursion.
%    \begin{macrocode}
\def\fn@fracpunct#1{\fn@fpa#1@ }
\def\fn@fpa#1#2#3 {#1\if #2@ \else \fn@fpb#2#3 \fi}
\def\fn@fpb#1#2#3 {#1\if #2@ \else \fn@fpc#2#3 \fi}
\def\fn@fpc#1#2#3 {#1\if #2@ \else \fn@groupsym\fn@fpa#2#3 \fi}
%    \end{macrocode}
%  \end{macro}
%
% \begin{macro}{\fn@intpunct}
% Punctuate the integer part of a decimal. This is not as 
% easy as the fractional part since we need to know the length
% before we start (no doubt there is a direct recursive method 
% to do this, but I'm not clever enough to work it out).  
%    \begin{macrocode}
\def\fn@intpunct#1{\fn@ipa#1 }
%    \end{macrocode}
% The macro |\fn@ipa| prints the string's initial $\pm$ and passes 
% on the rest of the string to the |\fn@ipb| macro. It might be 
% worthwhile stripping the redundant `+' here, but I am minded not 
% to do this since whether it is present is the choice of the user 
% (unlike the redundancy in the sign of the exponent --- see below).
%    \begin{macrocode}
\def\fn@ipa#1#2 {%
  \if +#1 +\fn@ipb#2 \else 
  \if -#1 -\fn@ipb#2 \else
  \fn@ipb#1#2 \fi \fi} 
%    \end{macrocode}
% The |\fn@ipab| macro finds the length (modulo 3) with |\fn@strlen| 
% and calls the appropriate output macro.
%    \begin{macrocode}
\def\fn@ipb#1 {\fn@length{#1} 
  \ifcase\fn@strlen
  \fn@ipc#1 \or 
  \fn@ipd#1 \or
  \fn@ipe#1 \fi}
%    \end{macrocode}
% The |\fn@ip[cde]| macro prints the first couple of characters 
% and then calls |\fn@ipf| which calls |\fn@fpa| (see above) to 
% finish the job.
%    \begin{macrocode}
\def\fn@ipc#1#2#3#4 {#1#2#3\fn@ipf#4@ }
\def\fn@ipd#1#2     {#1\fn@ipf#2@ }
\def\fn@ipe#1#2#3   {#1#2\fn@ipf#3@ }
\def\fn@ipf#1#2     {\if #1@ \else \fn@groupsym\fn@fpa#1#2 \fi}
%    \end{macrocode}
% \end{macro}
%
% \begin{macro}{\fn@decimal}
% Set a proper decimal.
% The pattern matching trick used here (and for the 
% exponent) is due to a conversation between 
% Heiko Oberdiek and Michael Downs on |comp.text.tex|. 
% See the file |ctt.txt| included in the distribution for details. 
%    \begin{macrocode}
\def\fn@propdecimal#1#2{\fn@intpunct{#1}\fn@decimalsym\fn@fracpunct{#2}}
\def\fn@impropdecimal#1#2{\fn@intpunct{#1}}
\def\fn@decimalsplit#1.#2.#3#4#5{#4{#1}{#2}}
\def\fn@decimal#1{\fn@decimalsplit#1..\fn@propdecimal\fn@impropdecimal\empty}
%    \end{macrocode}
% \end{macro}
%
% \subsubsection{The exponent}
%
% \begin{macro}{\fn@signedint}
% Set a signed exponent.
% The C standard I/O library functions \textit{printf},
% \textit{fprintf}, etc., as well as many Fortran compilers,
% write a `+' in the  exponent if it is positive. 
% Since this is superfluous, both typographically 
% and mathematically, we remove it if we find it.
%    \begin{macrocode}
\def\fn@signedint#1#2 {%
  \if +#1 
    \fn@unsignedint#2\relax 
  \else 
    \if -#1 
      -\fn@unsignedint#2\relax 
    \else  
       \fn@unsignedint#1#2\relax
    \fi
  \fi}
%    \end{macrocode}
% \end{macro}
%
% \begin{macro}{\fn@unsignedint}
% Set an unsigned exponent. Here we remove leading zeros. 
%    \begin{macrocode}
\def\fn@unsignedint#1#2{%
  \ifx #2\relax \let\next=#1 
  \else 
    \ifx 0#1 \let\next=\fn@unsignedint 
    \else
    \let\next=#1
    \fi 
  \fi 
  \next #2}
%    \end{macrocode}
% \end{macro}
%
% \subsubsection{The general number}
%
% \begin{macro}{\fnum}
% The setting of an floating point number.
% Our processing is dependent on whether the argument contains
% the letter `e'.
%    \begin{macrocode}
\def\fn@exp#1#2{\fn@decimal{#1}\fn@multsym10^{\fn@signedint#2 }}
\def\fn@noexp#1#2{\fn@decimal{#1}}
\def\fn@realsplit#1e#2e#3#4#5{#4{#1}{#2}}
\def\fnum#1{\fn@realsplit#1ee\fn@exp\fn@noexp\empty}
%    \end{macrocode}
% \end{macro}
