NAME

Regexp::Common::number -- provide regexes for numbers

SYNOPSIS

     use Regexp::Common qw /number/;
 
     while (<>) {
         /^$RE{num}{int}$/                and  print "Integer\n";
         /^$RE{num}{real}$/               and  print "Real\n";

     }

DESCRIPTION

Please consult the manual of Regexp::Common for a general description of the works of this interface.

Do not use this module directly, but load it via Regexp::Common.

$RE{num}{int}{-base}{-sep}{-group}{-places}


$RE{num}{int}{-base}{-sep}{-group}{-places}

Returns a pattern that matches an integer.

If "-base => B" is specified, the integer is in base B, with "2 <= B <= 36". For bases larger than 10, upper case letters are used. The default base is 10.

If "-sep => P" is specified, the pattern P is required as a grouping marker within the number. If this option is not given, no grouping marker is used.

If "-group => N" is specified, digits between grouping markers must be grouped in sequences of exactly N digits. The default value of N is 3. If "-group => N,M" is specified, digits between grouping markers must be grouped in sequences of at least N digits, and at most M digits. This option is ignored unless the "-sep" option is used.

If "-places => N" is specified, the integer recognized must be exactly N digits wide. If "-places => N,M" is specified, the integer must be at least N wide, and at most M characters. There is no default, which means that integers are unlimited in size. This option is ignored if the "-sep" option is used.

For example:

  $RE{num}{int}                          # match 1234567
  $RE{num}{int}{-sep=>','}               # match 1,234,567
  $RE{num}{int}{-sep=>',?'}              # match 1234567 or 1,234,567
  $RE{num}{int}{-sep=>'.'}{-group=>4}    # match 1.2345.6789

Under "-keep" (see Regexp::Common):

$1
captures the entire number
$2
captures the optional sign of the number
$3
captures the complete set of digits

$RE{num}{real}{-base}{-radix}{-places}{-sep}{-group}{-expon}


$RE{num}{real}{-base}{-radix}{-places}{-sep}{-group}{-expon}

Returns a pattern that matches a floating-point number.

If "-base=N" is specified, the number is assumed to be in that base (with A..Z representing the digits for 11..36). By default, the base is 10.

If "-radix=P" is specified, the pattern P is used as the radix point for the number (i.e. the ``decimal point'' in base 10). The default is "qr/[.]/".

If "-places=N" is specified, the number is assumed to have exactly N places after the radix point. If "-places=M,N" is specified, the number is assumed to have between M and N places after the radix point. By default, the number of places is unrestricted.

If "-sep=P" specified, the pattern P is required as a grouping marker within the pre-radix section of the number. By default, no separator is allowed.

If "-group=N" is specified, digits between grouping separators must be grouped in sequences of exactly N characters. The default value of N is 3.

If "-expon=P" is specified, the pattern P is used as the exponential marker. The default value of P is "qr/[Ee]/".

For example:

  $RE{num}{real}                  # matches 123.456 or -0.1234567
  $RE{num}{real}{-places=>2}      # matches 123.45 or -0.12
  $RE{num}{real}{-places=>'0,3'}  # matches 123.456 or 0 or 9.8
  $RE{num}{real}{-sep=>'[,.]?'}   # matches 123,456 or 123.456
  $RE{num}{real}{-base=>3'}       # matches 121.102

Under "-keep":

$1
captures the entire match
$2
captures the optional sign of the number
$3
captures the complete mantissa
$4
captures the whole number portion of the mantissa
$5
captures the radix point
$6
captures the fractional portion of the mantissa
$7
captures the optional exponent marker
$8
captures the entire exponent value
$9
captures the optional sign of the exponent
$10
captures the digits of the exponent

A synonym for $RE{num}{real}{-base=>2}{...}

$RE{num}{hex}{-radix}{-places}{-sep}{-group}{-expon}


$RE{num}{hex}{-radix}{-places}{-sep}{-group}{-expon}

A synonym for $RE{num}{real}{-base=>16}{...}

$RE{num}{decimal}{-base}{-radix}{-places}{-sep}{-group}


$RE{num}{decimal}{-base}{-radix}{-places}{-sep}{-group}

The same as $RE{num}{real}, except that an exponent isn't allowed. Hence, this returns a pattern matching decimal numbers.

If "-base=N" is specified, the number is assumed to be in that base (with A..Z representing the digits for 11..36). By default, the base is 10.

If "-radix=P" is specified, the pattern P is used as the radix point for the number (i.e. the ``decimal point'' in base 10). The default is "qr/[.]/".

If "-places=N" is specified, the number is assumed to have exactly N places after the radix point. If "-places=M,N" is specified, the number is assumed to have between M and N places after the radix point. By default, the number of places is unrestricted.

If "-sep=P" specified, the pattern P is required as a grouping marker within the pre-radix section of the number. By default, no separator is allowed.

If "-group=N" is specified, digits between grouping separators must be grouped in sequences of exactly N characters. The default value of N is 3.

For example:

  $RE{num}{decimal}                  # matches 123.456 or -0.1234567
  $RE{num}{decimal}{-places=>2}      # matches 123.45 or -0.12
  $RE{num}{decimal}{-places=>'0,3'}  # matches 123.456 or 0 or 9.8
  $RE{num}{decimal}{-sep=>'[,.]?'}   # matches 123,456 or 123.456
  $RE{num}{decimal}{-base=>3'}       # matches 121.102

Under "-keep":

$1
captures the entire match
$2
captures the optional sign of the number
$3
captures the complete mantissa
$4
captures the whole number portion of the mantissa
$5
captures the radix point
$6
captures the fractional portion of the mantissa

$RE{num}{square}


$RE{num}{square}

Returns a pattern that matches a (decimal) square. Because Perl's arithmetic is lossy when using integers over about 53 bits, this pattern only recognizes numbers less than 9000000000000000, if one uses a Perl that is configured to use 64 bit integers. Otherwise, the limit is 2147483647. These restrictions were introduced in versions 2.116 and 2.117 of Regexp::Common. Regardless whether "-keep" was set, the matched number will be returned in $1.

This pattern is available for version 5.008 and up.

$RE{num}{roman}


$RE{num}{roman}

Returns a pattern that matches an integer written in Roman numbers. Case doesn't matter. Only the more modern style, that is, no more than three repetitions of a letter, is recognized. The largest number matched is MMMCMXCIX, or 3999. Larger numbers cannot be expressed using ASCII characters. A future version will be able to deal with the Unicode symbols to match larger Roman numbers.

Under "-keep", the number will be captured in $1.
