Re: [NTG-context] Regular expressions in Lua.

Hi!

 As ranges are sometimes handy I've added a parser to the core

Nice. I will use it as soon as it is available.
It is a very good thing that range specifications will be uniform
across different modules.

Hi!

I have to use pattern matching in lua. I tried the function string.gmatch.
I want to match (iterate over) strings of the type
([0-9]+)(-([0-9]*))?(,|$)



For example:
1,3- (iterations: 1 and 3-)
1-3,6,7 (iterations: 1-3 then 6 then 7)
1-2,5-6,10- (iterations 1-2 then 5-6 then 10-)


function whatever(str,n,action)
action = action or print
for s in string.gmatch(str,[^,]+) do
local a, b, c = string.match(s,^(%d+)(%-?)(%d-)$)
if c ~=  then
for i=tonumber(a),tonumber(c) do
action(i)
end
elseif b ~=  then
for i=tonumber(a),n or tonumber(a) do
action(i)
end
elseif a then
action(tonumber(a))
end
end
end

whatever(1,3-,5,function(i) print(,i) end)
whatever(1-3,6,7)
whatever(1-2,5-6,10-,30)

Hello, Hans!

I had just managed to do it. I will switch to yours instead of mine...
I don't have any experience in Lua. Sorry for bothering with such easy
requests...

By the way, simplesteps recognizes number ranges! :-)

Thank you,

As ranges are sometimes handy I've added a parser to the core (no upload 
yet, will happen sometime next week)


-- utilities.parsers.stepper(1,3-,5,function(i) print(,i) end)
-- utilities.parsers.stepper(1-3,6,7)
-- utilities.parsers.stepper(1-3,6,7,function(i) print(,i) end)
-- utilities.parsers.stepper(1:3,6,7)
-- utilities.parsers.stepper( 1 : 3, ,7 )
-- utilities.parsers.stepper(1-2,5-6,25-*,30)

So:

- * as optional final value symbol
- optional spaces around : and, and around list
- - as well as :
