| 2024-09-20 20:23:15 +0200 | <lxsameer> | mauke: yeah, that makes it much easier |
| 2024-09-20 20:23:00 +0200 | <lxsameer> | mauke: hmmm cool, thank you. I'll give it a shot |
| 2024-09-20 20:22:57 +0200 | <mauke> | if the symbol name cleanly converts to a number, it is a number |
| 2024-09-20 20:22:37 +0200 | <mauke> | yeah, basically |
| 2024-09-20 20:21:55 +0200 | <lxsameer> | mauke: are you suggesting to parse them as symbol and the run another number parser on the symbol ? |
| 2024-09-20 20:21:16 +0200 | <lxsameer> | geekosaur: i'm in charge of the lang, so I can change the grammar if I want to |

| 2024-09-20 20:20:57 +0200 | <lxsameer> | mauke: technically yes. |
| 2024-09-20 20:20:41 +0200 | <mauke> | aren't numbers just a type of symbol, syntactically? |
| 2024-09-20 20:20:36 +0200 | <geekosaur> | because C supports things like 1L, 1ULL, etc. |
| 2024-09-20 20:20:22 +0200 | <geekosaur> | yes, what language you're parsing matters too. gcc parses character suffixes after numbers and reports errors if the suffix(es) aren't valid ("error: invalid suffix "a" on integer constant") |
| 2024-09-20 20:19:26 +0200 | <lxsameer> | mauke: yupe |

| 2024-09-20 20:17:07 +0200 | <geekosaur> | that's usually handled by the grammar: if 'a' isn't valid following the number then you get a parse error |

| 2024-09-20 20:16:36 +0200 | <lxsameer> | geekosaur: hmm it will, but it uses 'a' as a terminator an returns -43 as a number |
| 2024-09-20 20:15:44 +0200 | <geekosaur> | most parsers including combinator-based ones use a "maximal munch" rule, so if you parse as a number it should fail at the 'a' |

| 2024-09-20 20:14:02 +0200 | <lxsameer> | hey folks, how do you parse a string like '-43a' with megaparse or any parser combinator? -43a is a valid "symbol name" but not a valid number. If parse symbols first that's fine but then I will accidentally parse valid numbers as symbol too |
