;;; ERRORS

;;; Since errors may occur while an indirect control string is being
;;; processed, i.e. by ~? or ~{~:}, some sort of backtrace is necessary
;;; in order to indicate the location in the control string where the
;;; error was detected.  To this end, errors detected by format are
;;; signalled by throwing a list of the form ((control-string args))
;;; to the tag FORMAT-ERROR.  This throw will be caught at each level
;;; of indirection, and the list of error messages re-thrown with an
;;; additional message indicating that indirection was present CONSed
;;; onto it.  Ultimately, the last throw will be caught by the top level
;;; FORMAT function, which will then signal an error to the Slisp error
;;; system in such a way that all the errror messages will be displayed
;;; in reverse order.

;;;;some functions needed for dealing with floats

;;;; Floating Point printing
;;;
;;;  Written by Bill Maddox
;;;
;;;
;;;
;;; FLONUM-TO-STRING (and its subsidiary function FLOAT-STRING) does most of 
;;; the work for all printing of floating point numbers in the printer and in
;;; FORMAT.  It converts a floating point number to a string in a free or 
;;; fixed format with no exponent.  The interpretation of the arguments is as 
;;; follows:
;;;
;;;     X        - The floating point number to convert, which must not be
;;;                negative.
;;;     WIDTH    - The preferred field width, used to determine the number
;;;                of fraction digits to produce if the FDIGITS parameter
;;;                is unspecified or NIL.  If the non-fraction digits and the
;;;                decimal point alone exceed this width, no fraction digits
;;;                will be produced unless a non-NIL value of FDIGITS has been
;;;                specified.  Field overflow is not considerd an error at this
;;;                level.
;;;     FDIGITS  - The number of fractional digits to produce. Insignificant
;;;                trailing zeroes may be introduced as needed.  May be
;;;                unspecified or NIL, in which case as many digits as possible
;;;                are generated, subject to the constraint that there are no
;;;                trailing zeroes.
;;;     SCALE    - If this parameter is specified or non-NIL, then the number
;;;                printed is (* x (expt 10 scale)).  This scaling is exact,
;;;                and cannot lose precision.
;;;     FMIN     - This parameter, if specified or non-NIL, is the minimum
;;;                number of fraction digits which will be produced, regardless
;;;                of the value of WIDTH or FDIGITS.  This feature is used by
;;;                the ~E format directive to prevent complete loss of
;;;                significance in the printed value due to a bogus choice of
;;;                scale factor.
;;;
;;; Most of the optional arguments are for the benefit for FORMAT and are not
;;; used by the printer.
;;;
;;; Returns:
;;; (VALUES DIGIT-STRING DIGIT-LENGTH LEADING-POINT TRAILING-POINT DECPNT)
;;; where the results have the following interpretation:
;;;
;;;     DIGIT-STRING    - The decimal representation of X, with decimal point.
;;;     DIGIT-LENGTH    - The length of the string DIGIT-STRING.
;;;     LEADING-POINT   - True if the first character of DIGIT-STRING is the
;;;                       decimal point.
;;;     TRAILING-POINT  - True if the last character of DIGIT-STRING is the
;;;                       decimal point.
;;;     POINT-POS       - The position of the digit preceding the decimal
;;;                       point.  Zero indicates point before first digit.
;;;     NZEROS          - number of zeros after point
;;;
;;; WARNING: For efficiency, there is a single string object *digit-string*
;;; which is modified destructively and returned as the value of
;;; FLONUM-TO-STRING.  Thus the returned value is not valid across multiple 
;;; calls.
;;;
;;; NOTE:  FLONUM-TO-STRING goes to a lot of trouble to guarantee accuracy.
;;; Specifically, the decimal number printed is the closest possible 
;;; approximation to the true value of the binary number to be printed from 
;;; among all decimal representations  with the same number of digits.  In
;;; free-format output, i.e. with the number of digits unconstrained, it is 
;;; guaranteed that all the information is preserved, so that a properly-
;;; rounding reader can reconstruct the original binary number, bit-for-bit, 
;;; from its printed decimal representation. Furthermore, only as many digits
;;; as necessary to satisfy this condition will be printed.
;;;
;;;
;;; FLOAT-STRING actually generates the digits for positive numbers.  The
;;; algorithm is essentially that of algorithm Dragon4 in "How to Print 
;;; Floating-Point Numbers Accurately" by Steele and White.  The current 
;;; (draft) version of this paper may be found in [CMUC]<steele>tradix.press.
;;; DO NOT EVEN THINK OF ATTEMPTING TO UNDERSTAND THIS CODE WITHOUT READING 
;;; THE PAPER!
