CTAN Update: xint
by CTAN Announcements 11 Oct '13

11 Oct '13

Jean-François Burnol submitted an update to the xint package. Version number: 1.09c License type: lppl Summary description: Expandable operations on long numbers Announcement text: ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Release 1.09c adds new features: * TINYINT(1) and togl are two new functions recognized by the xintexpr parser. They act as in etoolbox boolean expressions (togl requires etoolbox, as it gives the truth value of the named toggle), and may be freely combined using the logic operators &, |, or functions all, any, xor, etc... * new conditional xintifboolexpr {<expr>}{YES}{NO}, where <expr> is written in the xintexpr recognized infix syntax, * the (non-expandable) utility xintApplyInline has been enhanced to be usable in contexts such as alignments where the applied macro may close groups, * xintFor is a new kind of for loop: it uses #1, #2, #3, #4 rather than macros to represent the (comma separated) list items; e.g. xintFor #1 in {a,b,c} do { extbf{#1}}. Despite not being completely expandable, it is nestable, and usable to generate rows in alignments, as it survives the closing of groups via its replacement text, * xintSeq expandably generates arithmetic sequences. Some other changes and code improvements, and improved documentation. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- This package is located at http://mirror.ctan.org/macros/generic/xint/ More information is at http://www.ctan.org/pkg/xint We are supported by the TeX Users Group http://www.tug.org .
