What: big integer to floating enhancement to Tcl
Where: From the contact
Description: Change tclExpr so that numbers too large for an integer become
floating point. Change also to treat numbers with leading zeros
as octal.
Updated:
Contact: mailto:[email protected] (Tosh Nishimura)RHS I'm a bit confused by this. Currently integers in Tcl are of arbitrary length (so there is no "too big"), and numbers with leading zeros are already treated as octal.
% expr {123456789012345678901234567890 + 1}
123456789012345678901234567891
% expr {08 +1}
missing operator at _@_
in expression "0_@_8 +1";
looks like invalid octal number
