% \section{Introduction}
%
% Arithmetic in \TeX\ is done using low-level operations such as
% |\advance| and |\multiply|.  This may be acceptable when developing
% a macro package, but it is not an acceptable interface for the
% end-user.
%
% This package introduces proper infix notation arithmetic which is
% much more familiar to most people.  The infix notation is more
% readable and easier to modify than the alternative: a sequence of
% assignment and arithmetic instructions.  One of the arithmetic
% instructions (|\divide|) does not even have an equivalent in
% standard \LaTeX.
%
% The infix expressions can be used in arguments to macros (the
% \texttt{calc} package doesn't employ category code changes to
% achieve its goals).\footnote{However, it therefore assumes that the
%    category codes of the special characters, such as \texttt{(*/)}
%    in its syntax do not change.}
%
% \section{Informal description}
%
% Standard \LaTeX\ provides the following set of commands to
% manipulate counters and lengths \cite[pages 194 and~216]{latexman}.
% \begin{itemize}
% \item[]\hskip-\leftmargin
%    |\setcounter{|\textit{ctr}|}{|\textit{num}|}| sets the
%    value of the counter \textit{ctr} equal to (the value of)
%    \textit{num}.  (Fragile)
% \item[]\hskip-\leftmargin
%    |\addtocounter{|\textit{ctr}|}{|\textit{num}|}|
%    increments the value of the counter \textit{ctr} by (the
%    value of) \textit{num}.  (Fragile)
%
% \item[]\hskip-\leftmargin
%    |\setlength{|\textit{cmd}|}{|\textit{len}|}| sets the value of
%    the length command \textit{cmd} equal to (the value of) \textit{len}.
%    (Robust)
% \item[]\hskip-\leftmargin
%    |\addtolength{|\textit{cmd}|}{|\textit{len}|}| sets the value of
%    the length command \textit{cmd} equal to its current value plus
%    (the value of) \textit{len}.  (Robust)
% \end{itemize}
% (The |\setcounter| and |\addtocounter| commands have global effect,
% while the |\setlength| and |\addtolength| commands obey the normal
% scoping rules.)  In standard \LaTeX, the arguments to these commands
% must be simple values.  The \texttt{calc} package extends these
% commands to accept infix notation expressions, denoting values of
% appropriate types.  Using the \texttt{calc} package, \textit{num} is
% replaced by \<integer expression>, and \textit{len} is replaced by
% \<glue expression>.  The formal syntax of \<integer expression> and
% \<glue expression> is given below.
%
% In addition to these commands to explicitly set a length, many \LaTeX\
% commands take a length argument. After loading this package, most of
% these commands will accept a  \<glue expression>. This includes
% the optional width argument of |\makebox|, the width argument of
% |\parbox|, |minipage|, and a |tabular| |p|-column, and many similar
% constructions. (This package does not redefine any of these commands,
% but they are defined by default to read their arguments by |\setlength|
% and so automatically benefit from the enhanced |\setlength| command
% provided by this package.)
%
% In the following, we shall use standard \TeX\ terminology.  The
% correspondence between \TeX\ and \LaTeX\ terminology is as follows:
% \LaTeX\ counters correspond to \TeX's count registers; they hold
% quantities of type \<number>.  \LaTeX\ length commands correspond to
% \TeX's dimen (for rigid lengths) and skip (for rubber lengths)
% registers; they hold quantities of types \<dimen> and \<glue>,
% respectively.
%
% \TeX\ gives us primitive operations to perform arithmetic on registers as
% follows:
% \begin{itemize}
%   \item addition and subtraction on all types of quantities without
%       restrictions;
%   \item multiplication and division by an \emph{integer} can be
%       performed on a register of any type;
%   \item multiplication by a \emph{real} number (i.e., a number with a
%       fractional part) can be performed on a register of any type,
%       but the stretch and shrink components of a glue quantity are
%       discarded.
% \end{itemize}
% The \texttt{calc} package uses these \TeX\ primitives but provides a
% more user-friendly notation for expressing the arithmetic.
%
% An expression is formed of numerical quantities (such as explicit
% constants and \LaTeX\ counters and length commands) and binary
% operators (the tokens `\texttt{+}', `\texttt{-}', `\texttt{*}', and
% `\texttt{/}' with their usual meaning) using the familiar infix
% notation; parentheses may be used to override the usual precedences
% (that multiplication/division have higher precedence than
% addition/subtraction).
%
% Expressions must be properly typed.  This means, e.g., that a dimen
% expression must be a sum of dimen terms: i.e., you cannot say
% `\texttt{2cm+4}' but `\texttt{2cm+4pt}' is valid.
%
% In a dimen term, the dimension part must come first; the same holds
% for glue terms.  Also, multiplication and division by non-integer
% quantities require a special syntax; see below.
%
% Evaluation of subexpressions at the same level of precedence
% proceeds from left to right.  Consider a dimen term such as
% ``\texttt{4cm*3*4}''.  First, the value of the factor \texttt{4cm} is
% assigned to a dimen register, then this register is multiplied
% by~$3$ (using |\multiply|), and, finally, the register is multiplied
% by~$4$ (again using |\multiply|).  This also explains why the
% dimension part (i.e., the part with the unit designation) must come
% first; \TeX\ simply doesn't allow untyped constants to be assigned
% to a dimen register.
%
% The \texttt{calc} package also allows multiplication and division by
% real numbers.  However, a special syntax is required: you must use
% |\real{|\<decimal constant>|}|\footnote{Actually, instead of
% \<decimal constant>, the more general \<optional signs>\<factor> can
% be used.  However, that doesn't add any extra expressive power to
% the language of infix expressions.} or
% |\ratio{|\<dimen expression>|}{|\<dimen expression>|}| to denote a
% real value to be used for multiplication/division.  The first form has
% the obvious meaning, and the second form denotes the number obtained
% by dividing the value of the first expression by the value of the
% second expression.
%
%    A later addition to the package (in June 1998) allows an additional
%    method of specifying a factor of type dimen by setting some text
%    (in LR-mode) and measuring its dimensions: these are denoted as
%    follows.
%\begin{quote}
%    |\widthof{|\<text>|}|\quad
%    |\heightof{|\<text>|}|\quad
%    |\depthof{|\<text>|}|
%\end{quote}
%    These calculate the natural sizes of the \<text> in exactly the
%    same way as is done for the commands |\settowidth| etc.~on
%    Page~216 of the manual~\cite{latexman}.
%    In August 2005 the package was further extended to provide the command
%\begin{quote}
%    |\totalheightof{|\<text>|}|
%\end{quote}
%    This command does exactly what you'd expect from its name.
%    Additionally the package also provides the command
%\begin{quote}
%    |\settototalheight{|\<cmd>|}{|\<text>|}|
%\end{quote}
%
%
%    Note that there is a small difference in the usage of these two
%    methods of accessing text dimensions.  After
%    |\settowidth{\txtwd}{Some text}| you can use:
%\begin{verbatim}
%    \setlength{\parskip}{0.68\txtwd}
%\end{verbatim}
%    whereas using the more direct access to the width of the text
%    requires the longer form for multiplication, thus:
%\begin{verbatim}
%    \setlength{\parskip}{\widthof{Some text} * \real{0.68}}
%\end{verbatim}
%
% \TeX\ discards the stretch and shrink components of glue when glue
% is multiplied by a real number.  So, for example,
%\begin{verbatim}
%    \setlength{\parskip}{3pt plus 3pt * \real{1.5}}
%\end{verbatim}
% will set the paragraph separation to 4.5pt with no stretch or
% shrink.  Incidentally, note how spaces can be used to enhance
% readability. When \TeX\ is scanning for a \<number> etc.\ it is
% common to terminate the scanning with a space token or by inserting
% \cs{relax}. As of version~4.3 \textsf{calc} allows \cs{relax} tokens
% to appear in places where they would usually be used for terminating
% \TeX's scanning. In short this is just before any of \texttt{+-*/)}
% or at the end of the expression being evaluated.
%
% When \TeX\ performs arithmetic on integers, any fractional part of
% the results are discarded.  For example,
%\begin{verbatim}
%    \setcounter{x}{7/2}
%    \setcounter{y}{3*\real{1.6}}
%    \setcounter{z}{3*\real{1.7}}
%\end{verbatim}
% will assign the value~$3$ to the counter~\texttt{x}, the value~$4$
% to~\texttt{y}, and the value~$5$ to~\texttt{z}.  This truncation
% also applies to \emph{intermediate} results in the sequential
% computation of a composite expression; thus, the following command
%\begin{verbatim}
%    \setcounter{x}{3 * \real{1.6} * \real{1.7}}
%\end{verbatim}
% will assign~$6$ to~\texttt{x}.
%
% As an example of the use of |\ratio|, consider the problem of
% scaling a figure to occupy the full width (i.e., |\textwidth|) of
% the body of a page.  Assume that the original dimensions of the
% figure are given by the dimen (length) variables, |\Xsize| and
% |\Ysize|.  The height of the scaled figure can then be expressed by
%\begin{verbatim}
%    \setlength{\newYsize}{\Ysize*\ratio{\textwidth}{\Xsize}}
%\end{verbatim}
%
%
%
% Another new feature introduced in August 2005 was $\max$ and $\min$
% operations with associated macros
%\begin{quote}
%    |\maxof{|\<\textit{type} expression>|}{|\<\textit{type} expression>|}|
%    \\
%    |\minof{|\<\textit{type} expression>|}{|\<\textit{type} expression>|}|
%\end{quote}
% When \textit{type} is either \meta{glue} or \meta{dimen} these macros
% are allowed only as part of addition or subtraction but when
% \textit{type} is \meta{integer} they can also be used when
% multiplying and dividing. In the latter case they follow the
% same syntax rules as |\ratio| and |\real| which means they must come
% after the |*| or the |/|. Thus
%\begin{verbatim}
%  \setcounter{x}{3*\maxof{4+5}{3*4}+\minof{2*\real{1.6}}{5-1}}
%\end{verbatim}
% will assign $3\times\max(9,12)+\min(3,4)=39$ to |x|. Similarly
%\begin{verbatim}
%  \setlength{\parindent}{%
%    \minof{3pt}{\parskip}*\real{1.5}*\maxof{2*\real{1.6}}{2-1}}
%\end{verbatim}
% will assign $\min(13.5\textrm{pt},4.5\cs{parskip})$ to \cs{parindent}
%
%
%
% \section{Formal syntax}
%
% The syntax is described by the following set of rules.
% Note that the definitions of \<number>, \<dimen>, \<glue>,
% \<decimal constant>, and \<plus or minus> are
% as in Chapter~24 of The \TeX book~\cite{texbook}; and \<text>
% is LR-mode material, as in the manual~\cite{latexman}.
% We use \textit{type} as a meta-variable, standing for
% `integer', `dimen', and `glue'.\footnote{This version of the
% \texttt{calc} package doesn't support evaluation of muglue expressions.}

%
% Relying heavily on \TeX\ to do the underlying assignments, it is
% only natural for \texttt{calc} to simulate \TeX's parsing machinery
% for these quantities. Therefore it a)~imposes the same restrictions
% on the catcode of syntax characters as \TeX\ and b)~tries to expand
% its argument fully. a)~means that implicit characters for the tokens
% |*|$_{12}$, |/|$_{12}$, |(|$_{12}$, and |)|$_{12}$ will not
% work\footnote{e\TeX\ also assumes these catcodes when parsing a
% \cs{numexpr}, \cs{dimexpr}, \cs{glueexpr}, or \cs{muglueexpr} and
% does not allow implicit characters.} but because of~b), the
% expansion should allow you to use macros that expand to explicit
% syntax characters.

% \section{The evaluation scheme}
% \label{evaluation:scheme}
%
% In this section, we shall for simplicity consider only expressions
% containing `$+$' (addition) and `$*$' (multiplication) operators.
% It is trivial to add subtraction and division.
%
% An expression $E$ is a sum of terms: $T_1+\cdots+T_n$; a term is a
% product of factors: $F_1*\cdots*F_m$; a factor is either a simple
% numeric quantity~$f$ (like \<number> as described in the \TeX book),
% or a parenthesized expression~$(E')$.
%
% Since the \TeX\ engine can only execute arithmetic operations in a
% machine-code like manner, we have to find a way to translate the
% infix notation into this `instruction set'.
%
% Our goal is to design a translation scheme that translates~$X$ (an
% expression, a term, or a factor) into a sequence of \TeX\ instructions
% that does the following [Invariance Property]: correctly
% evaluates~$X$, leaves the result in a global register~$A$ (using a
% global assignment), and does not perform global assignments to the
% scratch register~$B$; moreover, the code sequence must be balanced
% with respect to \TeX\ groups.  We shall denote the code sequence
% corresponding to~$X$ by \s{X}.
%
% In the replacement code specified below, we use the following
% conventions:
% \begin{itemize}
%    \item $A$ and $B$ denote registers; all assignments to~$A$ will
%       be global, and all assignments to~$B$ will be local.
%    \item ``$\gassign$'' means global assignment to the register on
%       the lhs.
%    \item ``$\lassign $'' means local assignment to the register on
%       the lhs.
%    \item ``\savecode C'' means ``save the code~$C$ until the current
%       group (scope) ends, then execute it.''  This corresponds to
%       the \TeX-primitive |\aftergroup|.
%    \item ``$\{$'' denotes the start of a new group, and ``$\}$''
%       denotes the end of a group.
% \end{itemize}
%
% Let us consider an expression $T_1+T_2+\cdots+T_n$.  Assuming that
% \s{T_k} ($1\le k\le n$) attains the stated goal, the following code
% clearly attains the stated goal for their sum:
% \begin{eqnarray*}
% \s{T_1+T_2+\cdots+T_n}&\Longrightarrow&
%       \{\,\s{T_1}\,\} \; B\lassign A \quad
%       \{\,\s{T_2}\,\} \; B\lassign B+A \\
%       &&\qquad \ldots \quad \{\,\s{T_n}\,\} \; B\lassign B+A
%                       \quad A\gassign B
% \end{eqnarray*}
% Note the extra level of grouping enclosing each of \s{T_1}, \s{T_2},
% \ldots,~\s{T_n}.  This will ensure that register~$B$, used to
% compute the sum of the terms, is not clobbered by the intermediate
% computations of the individual terms.  Actually, the group
% enclosing~\s{T_1} is unnecessary, but it turns out to be simpler if
% all terms are treated the same way.
%
% The code sequence ``$\{\,\s{T_2}\,\}\;B\lassign B+A$'' can be translated
% into the following equivalent code sequence:
% ``$\{\savecode{B\lassign B+A}\,\s{T_2}\,\}$''.  This observation turns
% out to be the key to the implementation: The ``$\savecode{B\lassign
% B+A}$'' is generated \emph{before} $T_2$ is translated, at the same
% time as the `$+$' operator between $T_1$ and~$T_2$ is seen.
%
% Now, the specification of the translation scheme is straightforward:
% \begin{eqnarray*}
%    \s{f}&\Longrightarrow&A\gassign f\\[\smallskipamount]
%    \s{(E')}&\Longrightarrow&\s{E'}\\[\smallskipamount]
%    \s{T_1+T_2+\cdots+T_n}&\Longrightarrow&
%       \{\savecode{B\lassign A}\,\s{T_1}\,\} \quad
%       \{\savecode{B\lassign B+A}\,\s{T_2}\,\} \\
%       &&\qquad \ldots \quad \{\savecode{B\lassign B+A}\,\s{T_n}\,\}
%                       \quad A\gassign B
%                       \\[\smallskipamount]
%    \s{F_1*F_2*\cdots*F_m}&\Longrightarrow&
%       \{\savecode{B\lassign A}\,\s{F_1}\,\} \quad
%       \{\savecode{B\lassign B*A}\,\s{F_2}\,\}\\
%       &&\qquad \ldots \quad \{\savecode{B\lassign B*A}\,\s{F_m}\,\}
%                       \quad A\gassign B
% \end{eqnarray*}
% By structural induction, it is easily seen that the stated property
% is attained.
%
% By inspection of this translation scheme, we see that we have to
% generate the following code:
% \begin{itemize}
%    \item we must generate ``$\{\savecode{B\lassign
%       A}\{\savecode{B\lassign A}$'' at the left border of an
%       expression (i.e., for each left parenthesis and the implicit
%       left parenthesis at the beginning of the whole expression);
%    \item we must generate ``$\}A\gassign B\}A\gassign B$'' at the
%       right border of an expression (i.e., each right parenthesis
%       and the implicit right parenthesis at the end of the full
%       expression);
%    \item `\texttt{*}' is replaced by ``$\}\{\savecode{B\lassign

% \end{itemize}
%
% \section{Implementation}
%
% For brevity define
% \begin{calc-syntax}
%    \<numeric> \is \<number> \alt \<dimen> \alt \<glue> \alt \<muglue>
% \end{calc-syntax}
% So far we have ignored the question of how to determine the type of
% register to be used in the code.  However, it is easy to see that
% (1)~`$*$' always initiates an \<integer factor>, (2)~all
% \<numeric>s in an expression, except those which are part of an
% \<integer factor>, are of the same type as the whole expression, and
% all \<numeric>s in an \<integer factor> are \<number>s.
%
% We have to ensure that $A$ and~$B$ always have an appropriate type
% for the \<numeric>s they manipulate.  We can achieve this by having
% an instance of $A$ and~$B$ for each type.  Initially, $A$~and~$B$
% refer to registers of the proper type for the whole expression.
% When an \<integer factor> is expected, we must change $A$ and~$B$ to
% refer to integer type registers.  We can accomplish this by
% including instructions to change the type of $A$ and~$B$ to integer
% type as part of the replacement code for~`$*$; if we append such
% instructions to the replacement code described above, we also ensure
% that the type-change is local (provided that the type-changing
% instructions only have local effect).  However, note that the
% instance of~$A$ referred to in $\savecode{B\lassign B*A}$ is the
% integer instance of~$A$.
%
% We shall use |\begingroup| and |\endgroup| for the open-group and
% close-group characters.  This avoids problems with spacing in math
% (as pointed out to us by Frank Mittelbach).
%
% \subsection{Getting started}
%
% Now we have enough insight to do the actual implementation in \TeX.
% First, we announce the macro package.\footnote{Code moved to top of file}
%    \begin{macrocode}
%<*package>
%\NeedsTeXFormat{LaTeX2e}
%\ProvidesPackage{calc}[\filedate\space\fileversion]
%    \end{macrocode}
%
% \subsection{Assignment macros}
%
% \begin{macro}{\calc@assign@generic}
% \changes{v4.2}{2005/08/06}{Removed a few redundant \cs{expandafter}s}
% The |\calc@assign@generic| macro takes four arguments: (1~and~2) the
% registers to be used
% for global and local manipulations, respectively; (3)~the lvalue
% part; (4)~the expression to be evaluated.
%
% The third argument (the lvalue) will be used as a prefix to a
% register that contains the value of the specified expression (the
% fourth argument).
%
% In general, an lvalue is anything that may be followed by a variable
% of the appropriate type.  As an example, |\linepenalty| and
% |\global\advance\linepenalty| may both be followed by an \<integer
% variable>.
%
% The macros described below refer to the registers by the names
% |\calc@A| and |\calc@B|; this is accomplished by
% |\let|-assignments.
%
% As discovered in Section~\ref{evaluation:scheme}, we have to
% generate code as
% if the expression is parenthesized.  As described below,
% |\calc@open| is the macro that replaces a left parenthesis by its
% corresponding \TeX\ code sequence.  When the scanning process sees
% the exclamation point, it generates an |\endgroup| and stops.  As we
% recall from Section~\ref{evaluation:scheme}, the correct expansion
% of a right
% parenthesis is ``$\}A\gassign B\}A\gassign B$''.  The remaining
% tokens of this expansion are inserted explicitly, except that the
% last assignment has been replaced by the lvalue part (i.e.,
% argument~|#3| of |\calc@assign@generic|) followed by |\calc@B|.

% \subsection{The scanner}
%
% We evaluate expressions by explicit scanning of characters.  We do
% not rely on active characters for this.
%
% The scanner consists of two parts, |\calc@pre@scan| and
% |\calc@post@scan|; |\calc@pre@scan| consumes left parentheses, and
% |\calc@post@scan| consumes binary operator, |\real|, |\ratio|, and
% right parenthesis tokens.
%
% \begin{macro}{\calc@pre@scan}
% \begin{macro}{\@calc@pre@scan}
% \changes{v4.2}{2005/08/06}
%    {Added macro and force expansion}
%
%    Note that this is called at least once on every use of calc
%    processing, even when none of the extended syntax is present; it
%    therefore needs to be made very efficient.
%
%    It reads the initial part of expressions, until some \<text dimen
%    factor> or \<numeric> is seen; in fact, anything not explicitly
%    recognized here is taken to be a \<numeric> of some sort as this
%    allows unary
%   `\texttt{+}' and unary `\texttt{-}' to be treated easily and
%    correctly\footnote{In the few contexts where signs are allowed:
%    this could, I think, be extended (CAR).} but means that anything
%    illegal will simply generate a \TeX-level error, often a
%    reasonably comprehensible one!
%
%    The |\romannumeral-`\a| part is a little trick which forces expansion
%    in case |#1| is a normal macro, something that occurs from time to
%    time. A conditional test inside will possibly leave a trailing
%    \cs{fi} but this remnant is removed later when \cs{calc@post@scan}
%    performs the same trick.
%
%    The many |\expandafter|s are needed to efficiently end the nested
%    conditionals so that |\calc@textsize| and |\calc@maxmin@addsub| can
%    process their argument.
