Jean-François Burnol submitted an update to the
xint
package.
Version number: 1.09e
License type: lppl
Summary description: Expandable operations on long numbers
Announcement text:
----------------------------------------------------------------------
New features:
* the new syntax xintFor #1 in {xintrationals [f+g]} do
{stuff with #1} does an infinite repetition with #1 first set to
f, then f+g, f+2g, ... where f and g are decimal numbers, or
fractions, or macros expanding to such things. Also available:
- xintintegers where each #1 will be a
umexpr <explicit number>
elax
- xintdimensions where each #1 will be a
dimexpr <explicit dimension>
elax.
In the latter case the dimensions are internally kept in sp
units, there is no loss of accuracy due to conversion in pt's by
he.
* one breaks out of the infinite loop with xintBreakFor and
xintBreakForAndDo (preferably put inside the true or false
branch of a conditional as provided by the package itself or the
etoolbox package or the ifthen package; there is no question of
complete expandability here, so ifthen is allowed).
* also new: xintifForFirst, xintifForLast which are expandable
conditionals to use in the replacement text of the xintFor and
xintFor* loops. Can be nested as expected.
* new expandable conditionals xintifCmp and xintifInt
The documentation contains a completely expandable implementation
of the Quick Sort algorithm, and a graphical illustration of its
functioning. It also has a completely expandable prime test and
dynamically constructed prime tables and other examples of use of
the completely expandable xintApplyUnbraced or non completely
expandable xintApplyInline and xintFor, xintFor*.

v1.07h [2013/10/16]
* new commands etocdepthtag.toc {tag_name} and
etocsettagdepth {tag_name}{numeric_level_or_division_name}
These new commands allow to obtain easily the following kind of
effect: one wants each Part of a document to contain a table of
contents displaying the other Part headings, with no finer
division, whereas the Part itself will appear with all its own
sub-divisions.
This could already be done with the etocsettocdepth.toc command
of recent releaser 1.07g, but was a bit of an overuse.
