parsing fractions in treetop
I'm having a bit of difficulty parsing fractions in my treetop grammar.
My grammar looks like this
grammar Numbers
rule number
regular_number optional_frac {
def value
[:number, text_value]
end
}
end
rule optional_frac
frac_number? {
def value
[:optional_frac, text_value]
end
}
end
rule frac_number
(s? regular_number '/' regular_number)? / ('/' regular_number)? {
def value
[:frac_number, text_value]
end
}
end
rule regular_number
[0-9\.\/-]+ {
def value
text_value
end
}
end
end
When I try to get the values from
2 => number
1/2 => number, frac_number
2 2/4 => not recognized
I though the rule
s? regular_number '/' re开发者_StackOverflowgular_number
would return as a fraction. any idea what is wrong in my grammar?
I finally got this working, not ideal, but I am able to recognize the fractions properly.
rule number frac_number / regular_number optional_frac { def value [:number, text_value] end } end rule optional_frac frac_number? { def value [:optional_frac, text_value] end } end rule frac_number (s? regular_number '/' regular_number) { def value [:frac_number, text_value] end } end
This takes care of the following cases (1/2, 1, 1 1/2). Then, when I have my tree, I'll have to test for the make-up of 'number', and if it has a fraction, I'll eval the fraction to get a decimal, and add it to the number if their is one.
