% Calculation and comparison of integer values can be carried out
% using literal numbers, \texttt{int} registers, constants and
% integers stored in token list variables. The standard operators
% \texttt{+}, \texttt{-}, \texttt{/} and \texttt{*} and
% parentheses can be used within such expressions to carry
% arithmetic operations. This module carries out these functions
% on \emph{integer expressions} (\enquote{\meta{int expr}}).
%
% \section{Integer expressions}
%
% Throughout this module, (almost) all \texttt{n}-type argument allow
% for an \meta{intexpr} argument with the following syntax.  The
% \meta{integer expression} should consist,
% after expansion, of \texttt{+}, \texttt{-}, \texttt{*}, \texttt{/},
% \texttt{(}, \texttt{)} and of course integer operands.  The result
% is calculated by applying standard mathematical rules with the
% following peculiarities:
% \begin{itemize}
% \item \texttt{/} denotes division rounded to the closest integer with
%   ties rounded away from zero;
% \item there is an error and the overall expression evaluates to zero
%   whenever the absolute value of any intermediate result exceeds
%   $2^{31}-1$, except in the case of scaling operations
%   $a$\texttt{*}$b$\texttt{/}$c$, for which $a$\texttt{*}$b$ may be
%   arbitrarily large (but the operands $a$, $b$, $c$ are still
%   constrained to an absolute value at most $2^{31}-1$);
% \item parentheses may not appear after unary \texttt{+} or
%   \texttt{-}, namely placing \texttt{+(} or \texttt{-(} at the start
%   of an expression or after \texttt{+}, \texttt{-}, \texttt{*},
%   \texttt{/} or~\texttt{(} leads to an error.
% \end{itemize}
% Each integer operand can be either an integer variable (with no need
% for \cs{int_use:N}) or an integer denotation.  For example both
% \begin{verbatim}
% \int_show:n { 5 +  4 * 3 - ( 3 + 4 * 5 ) }
% \end{verbatim}
% and
% \begin{verbatim}
% \tl_new:N  \l_my_tl
% \tl_set:Nn \l_my_tl { 5 }
% \int_new:N  \l_my_int
% \int_set:Nn \l_my_int { 4 }
% \int_show:n { \l_my_tl +  \l_my_int * 3 - ( 3 + 4 * 5 ) }
% \end{verbatim}
% show the same result $-6$ because \cs[no-index]{l_my_tl} expands to
% the integer denotation~|5| while the integer variable \cs[no-index]{l_my_int}
% takes the value~$4$.  As the \meta{integer expression} is fully
% expanded from left to right during evaluation, fully expandable and
% restricted-expandable functions can both be used, and \cs{exp_not:n}
% and its variants have no effect while \cs{exp_not:N} may incorrectly
% interrupt the expression.
% 
% \begin{function}[EXP]{\int_eval:n}
%   \begin{syntax}
%     \cs{int_eval:n} \Arg{int expr}
%   \end{syntax}
%   Evaluates the \meta{int expr} and leaves the result in the
%   input stream as an integer denotation: for positive results an
%   explicit sequence of decimal digits not starting with~\texttt{0},
%   for negative results \texttt{-}~followed by such a sequence, and
%   \texttt{0}~for zero.
%   \begin{texnote}
%     Exactly two expansions are needed to evaluate \cs{int_eval:n}.
%     The result is \emph{not} an \meta{internal integer}, and therefore
%     requires suitable termination if used in a \TeX{}-style integer
%     assignment.
%
%     As all \TeX{} integers, integer operands can also be dimension or
%     skip variables, converted to integers in~\texttt{sp}, or octal
%     numbers given as \texttt{'} followed by digits other than
%     \texttt{8} and \texttt{9}, or hexadecimal numbers given as
%     |"| followed by digits or upper case letters from
%     \texttt{A} to~\texttt{F}, or the character code of some character
%     or one-character control sequence, given as \texttt{`}\meta{char}.
%   \end{texnote}
% \end{function}
%
% \begin{function}[EXP, added = 2018-03-30]{\int_eval:w}
%   \begin{syntax}
%     \cs{int_eval:w} \meta{int expr}
%   \end{syntax}
%   Evaluates the \meta{int expr} as described for
%   \cs{int_eval:n}. The end of the expression is the first token
%   encountered that cannot form part of such an expression.  If that
%   token is \cs{scan_stop:} it is removed, otherwise not.  Spaces do
%   \emph{not} terminate the expression.  However, spaces terminate
%   explicit integers, and this may terminate the expression: for
%   instance, \cs{int_eval:w} \verb*|1 + 1 9| (with explicit space
%   tokens inserted using |~| in a code setting) expands to \texttt{29}
%   since the digit~\texttt{9} is not part of the expression. Expansion
%   details, etc., are as given for \cs{int_eval:n}.
% \end{function}
%
% \begin{function}[EXP, added = 2018-11-03]{\int_sign:n}
%   \begin{syntax}
%     \cs{int_sign:n} \Arg{int expr}
%   \end{syntax}
%   Evaluates the \meta{int expr} then leaves $1$ or $0$ or
%   $-1$ in the input stream according to the sign of the result.
% \end{function}
%
% \begin{function}[EXP, updated = 2012-09-26]{\int_abs:n}
%   \begin{syntax}
%     \cs{int_abs:n} \Arg{int expr}
%   \end{syntax}
%   Evaluates the \meta{int expr} as described for
%   \cs{int_eval:n} and leaves the absolute value of the result in
%   the input stream as an \meta{integer denotation} after two
%   expansions.
% \end{function}
%
% \begin{function}[EXP, updated = 2012-09-26]{\int_div_round:nn}
%   \begin{syntax}
%     \cs{int_div_round:nn} \Arg{int expr_1} \Arg{int expr_2}
%   \end{syntax}
%   Evaluates the two \meta{int expr}s as described earlier,
%   then divides the first value by the second, and rounds the result
%   to the closest integer.  Ties are rounded away from zero.
%   Note that this is identical to using
%   |/| directly in an \meta{int expr}. The result is left in
%   the input stream as an \meta{integer denotation} after two expansions.
% \end{function}
%
% \begin{function}[EXP, updated = 2012-02-09]{\int_div_truncate:nn}
%   \begin{syntax}
%     \cs{int_div_truncate:nn} \Arg{int expr_1} \Arg{int expr_2}
%   \end{syntax}
%   Evaluates the two \meta{int expr}s as described earlier,
%   then divides the first value by the second, and rounds the result
%   towards zero.  Note that division using |/|
%   rounds to the closest integer instead.
%   The result is left in the input stream as an
%   \meta{integer denotation} after two expansions.
% \end{function}
%
% \begin{function}[EXP, updated = 2012-09-26]{\int_max:nn, \int_min:nn}
%   \begin{syntax}
%     \cs{int_max:nn} \Arg{int expr_1} \Arg{int expr_2}
%     \cs{int_min:nn} \Arg{int expr_1} \Arg{int expr_2}
%   \end{syntax}
%   Evaluates the \meta{int expr}s as described for
%   \cs{int_eval:n} and leaves either the larger or smaller value
%   in the input stream as an \meta{integer denotation} after two
%   expansions.
% \end{function}
%
% \begin{function}[EXP, updated = 2012-09-26]{\int_mod:nn}
%   \begin{syntax}
%     \cs{int_mod:nn} \Arg{int expr_1} \Arg{int expr_2}
%   \end{syntax}
%   Evaluates the two \meta{int expr}s as described earlier,
%   then calculates the integer remainder of dividing the first
%   expression by the second.  This is obtained by subtracting
%   \cs{int_div_truncate:nn} \Arg{int expr_1} \Arg{int expr_2} times
%   \meta{int expr_2} from \meta{int expr_1}.  Thus, the result has the
%   same sign as \meta{int expr_1} and its absolute value is strictly
%   less than that of \meta{int expr_2}.  The result is left in the input
%   stream as an \meta{integer denotation} after two expansions.
% \end{function}
%
% \section{Creating and initializing integers}

%   \end{syntax}

%   \begin{syntax}
%     \cs{int_zero_new:N} \meta{integer}
%   \end{syntax}
%   Ensures that the \meta{integer} exists globally by applying
%   \cs{int_new:N} if necessary, then applies
%   \cs[index=int_zero:N]{int_(g)zero:N} to leave
%   the \meta{integer} set to zero.
% \end{function}
%
% \begin{function}
%   {

%   {\int_if_exist:N, \int_if_exist:c}
%   \begin{syntax}
%     \cs{int_if_exist_p:N} \meta{integer}
%     \cs{int_if_exist:NTF} \meta{integer} \Arg{true code} \Arg{false code}
%   \end{syntax}
%   Tests whether the \meta{integer} is currently defined.  This does not
%   check that the \meta{integer} really is an integer variable.
% \end{function}
%
% \section{Setting and incrementing integers}
%
% \begin{function}[updated = 2011-10-22]
%   {\int_add:Nn, \int_add:cn, \int_gadd:Nn, \int_gadd:cn}
%   \begin{syntax}
%     \cs{int_add:Nn} \meta{integer} \Arg{int expr}
%   \end{syntax}
%   Adds the result of the \meta{int expr} to the current
%   content of the \meta{integer}.
% \end{function}
%
% \begin{function}{\int_decr:N, \int_decr:c, \int_gdecr:N, \int_gdecr:c}
%   \begin{syntax}
%     \cs{int_decr:N} \meta{integer}
%   \end{syntax}
%   Decreases the value stored in \meta{integer} by $1$.
% \end{function}
%
% \begin{function}{\int_incr:N, \int_incr:c, \int_gincr:N, \int_gincr:c}
%   \begin{syntax}
%     \cs{int_incr:N} \meta{integer}
%   \end{syntax}
%   Increases the value stored in \meta{integer} by $1$.
% \end{function}
%
% \begin{function}[updated = 2011-10-22]
%   {
%     \int_set:Nn, \int_set:cn, \int_set:NV, \int_set:cV,

%   }
%   \begin{syntax}
%     \cs{int_set:Nn} \meta{integer} \Arg{int expr}
%   \end{syntax}
%   Sets \meta{integer} to the value of \meta{int expr},

% \end{function}
%
% \begin{function}[added = 2024-12-08]
%   {

%     \cs{int_set_regex_count:NNn} \meta{integer} \meta{regex~var} \Arg{token list}
%   \end{syntax}
%   Sets \meta{integer} equal to the number of times
%   \meta{regular expression} appears in \meta{token list}.
%   The search starts by finding the left-most longest match,
%   respecting greedy and lazy (non-greedy) operators. Then the search
%   starts again from the character following the last character
%   of the previous match, until reaching the end of the token list.
%   Infinite loops are prevented in the case where the regular expression
%   can match an empty token list: then we count one match between each
%   pair of characters.
%   For instance,
%   \begin{verbatim}
%     \int_set_regex_count:Nnn \l_foo_int { (b+|c) } { abbababcbb }
%   \end{verbatim}
%   results in \cs[no-index]{l_foo_int} taking the value $5$.
%   Theses are alternative names for \cs{regex_count:nnN} and friends,
%   with arguments re-ordered for \meta{integer} setting;
%   see \pkg{l3regex} chapter for more details of the \meta{regex}
%   format.
% \end{function}
%
% \begin{function}[updated = 2011-10-22]
%   {\int_sub:Nn, \int_sub:cn, \int_gsub:Nn, \int_gsub:cn}
%   \begin{syntax}
%     \cs{int_sub:Nn} \meta{integer} \Arg{int expr}

%   Subtracts the result of the \meta{int expr} from the
%   current content of the \meta{integer}.
% \end{function}
%
% \section{Using integers}
%
% \begin{function}[updated = 2011-10-22, EXP]{\int_use:N, \int_use:c}
%   \begin{syntax}
%     \cs{int_use:N} \meta{integer}
%   \end{syntax}
%   Recovers the content of an \meta{integer} and places it directly
%   in the input stream. An error is raised if the variable does
%   not exist or if it is invalid. Can be omitted in places where an
%   \meta{integer} is required (such as in the first and third arguments
%   of \cs{int_compare:nNnTF}).
%   \begin{texnote}
%     \cs{int_use:N} is the \TeX{} primitive \tn{the}: this is one of
%     several \LaTeX3 names for this primitive.
%   \end{texnote}
% \end{function}
%
% \section{Integer expression conditionals}
%
% \begin{function}[EXP,pTF]

%     ~~\Arg{int expr_1} \meta{relation} \Arg{int expr_2}
%     ~~\Arg{true code} \Arg{false code}
%   \end{syntax}
%   This function first evaluates each of the \meta{int expr}s
%   as described for \cs{int_eval:n}. The two results are then
%   compared using the \meta{relation}:
%   \begin{center}
%     \begin{tabular}{ll}
%       Equal                 & |=| \\
%       Greater than          & |>| \\
%       Less than             & |<| \\
%     \end{tabular}
%   \end{center}
%   This function is less flexible than \cs{int_compare:nTF} but around
%   $5$~times faster.
%
%   Variables may be used directly in the \meta{int exprs} here: as a result,
%   there is no need for |V|- (or |e|-) type variants. The |v|-type
%   variants are provided for convenience.
% \end{function}
%
% \begin{function}[updated = 2013-01-13, EXP, pTF]{\int_compare:n}

%     ~~~~\meta{int expr_{N+1}} \\
%     ~~\} \\
%     ~~\Arg{true code} \Arg{false code}
%   \end{syntax}
%   This function evaluates the \meta{int expr}s as described
%   for \cs{int_eval:n} and compares consecutive result using the
%   corresponding \meta{relation}, namely it compares \meta{int expr_1}
%   and \meta{int expr_2} using the \meta{relation_1}, then
%   \meta{int expr_2} and \meta{int expr_3} using the \meta{relation_2},
%   until finally comparing \meta{int expr_N} and \meta{int expr_{N+1}}
%   using the \meta{relation_N}.  The test yields \texttt{true} if all
%   comparisons are \texttt{true}.  Each \meta{int expr} is
%   evaluated only once, and the evaluation is lazy, in the sense that
%   if one comparison is \texttt{false}, then no other \meta{integer
%     expression} is evaluated and no other comparison is performed.
%   The \meta{relations} can be any of the following:
%   \begin{center}
%     \begin{tabular}{ll}
%       Equal                    & |=| or |==| \\
%       Greater than or equal to & |>=|        \\
%       Greater than             & |>|         \\
%       Less than or equal to    & |<=|        \\
%       Less than                & |<|         \\
%       Not equal                & |!=|        \\
%     \end{tabular}
%   \end{center}
%   This function is more flexible than \cs{int_compare:nNnTF} but
%   around $5$~times slower.
% \end{function}
%
% \begin{function}[added = 2013-07-24, EXP, noTF]{\int_case:nn}
%   \begin{syntax}
%     \cs{int_case:nnTF} \Arg{test int expr} \\
%     ~~|{| \\

%     ~~|}| \\
%     ~~\Arg{true code}
%     ~~\Arg{false code}
%   \end{syntax}
%   This function evaluates the \meta{test int expr} and
%   compares this in turn to each of the
%   \meta{int expr case}s until a match is found.
%   If the two are equal then the
%   associated \meta{code} is left in the input stream
%   and other cases are discarded. If any of the
%   cases are matched, the \meta{true code} is also inserted into the
%   input stream (after the code for the appropriate case), while if none
%   match then the \meta{false code} is inserted. The function
%   \cs{int_case:nn}, which does nothing if there is no match, is also
%   available. For example
%   \begin{verbatim}
%     \int_case:nnF
%       { 2 * 5 }
%       {
%         { 5 }       { Small }
%         { 4 + 6 }   { Medium }
%         { -2 * 10 } { Negative }
%       }
%       { No idea! }
%   \end{verbatim}
%   leaves \enquote{\texttt{Medium}} in the input stream.
%   Since evaluation of the test expressions stops at the first
%   successful case, the order of possible matches should normally
%   be that the most likely are earlier: this will reduce the average
%   steps required to complete expansion.
% \end{function}

%     \cs{int_if_odd:nTF} \Arg{int expr}
%     ~~\Arg{true code} \Arg{false code}
%   \end{syntax}
%   This function first evaluates the \meta{int expr}
%   as described for \cs{int_eval:n}. It then evaluates if this
%   is odd or even, as appropriate.
% \end{function}
%
% \begin{function}[EXP,pTF, added = 2023-05-17]{\int_if_zero:n}
%   \begin{syntax}

%     \cs{int_if_zero:nTF} \Arg{int expr}
%     ~~\Arg{true code} \Arg{false code}
%   \end{syntax}
%   This function first evaluates the \meta{int expr}
%   as described for \cs{int_eval:n}. It then evaluates if this
%   is zero or not.

%     \cs{int_step_function:nnnN} \Arg{initial value} \Arg{step} \Arg{final value} \meta{function}
%   \end{syntax}
%   This function first evaluates the \meta{initial value}, \meta{step}
%   and \meta{final value}, all of which should be integer expressions.
%   The \meta{function} is then placed in front of each \meta{value}
%   from the \meta{initial value} to the \meta{final value} in turn
%   (using \meta{step} between each \meta{value}).  The \meta{step} must
%   be non-zero.  If the \meta{step} is positive, the loop stops when
%   the \meta{value} becomes larger than the \meta{final value}.  If the
%   \meta{step} is negative, the loop stops when the \meta{value}
%   becomes smaller than the \meta{final value}.  The \meta{function}
%   should absorb one numerical argument. For example
%   \begin{verbatim}
%     \cs_set:Npn \my_func:n #1 { [I~saw~#1] \quad }
%     \int_step_function:nnnN { 1 } { 1 } { 5 } \my_func:n

%     [I saw 3] \quad
%     [I saw 4] \quad

%   \end{quote}
%
%   The functions \cs{int_step_function:nN} and \cs{int_step_function:nnN}
%   both use a fixed \meta{step} of $1$, and in the case of

%   This function works just like \cs{int_step_function:nnnN} but

%       { $#1 \times #2 = \int_eval:n { #1 * #2 }$ \quad }

%   \begin{syntax}
%     \cs{int_to_arabic:n} \Arg{int expr}
%   \end{syntax}
%   Places the value of the \meta{int expr} in the input

% \end{function}
%
% \begin{function}[updated = 2011-09-17, EXP]{\int_to_alph:n, \int_to_Alph:n}
%   \begin{syntax}
%     \cs{int_to_alph:n} \Arg{int expr}
%   \end{syntax}
%   Evaluates the \meta{int expr} and converts the result
%   into a series of letters, which are then left in the input stream.
%   The conversion rule uses the $26$ letters of the English
%   alphabet, in order, adding letters when necessary to increase the total
%   possible range of representable numbers. Thus
%   \begin{verbatim}
%     \int_to_alph:n { 1 }
%   \end{verbatim}
%   places |a| in the input stream,
%   \begin{verbatim}
%     \int_to_alph:n { 26 }
%   \end{verbatim}
%   is represented as |z| and
%   \begin{verbatim}
%     \int_to_alph:n { 27 }
%   \end{verbatim}
%   is converted to |aa|. For conversions using other alphabets, use
%   \cs{int_to_symbols:nnn} to define an alphabet-specific
%   function. The basic \cs{int_to_alph:n} and \cs{int_to_Alph:n}
%   functions should not be modified.

%     ~~\Arg{int expr} \Arg{total symbols}
%     ~~\Arg{value to symbol mapping}
%   \end{syntax}
%   This is the low-level function for conversion of an
%   \meta{int expr} into a symbolic form (often
%   letters). The \meta{total symbols} available should be given
%   as an integer expression. Values are actually converted to symbols
%   according to the \meta{value to symbol mapping}. This should be given
%   as \meta{total symbols} pairs of entries, a number and the
%   appropriate symbol. Thus the \cs{int_to_alph:n} function is defined
%   as
%   \begin{verbatim}
%     \cs_new:Npn \int_to_alph:n #1
%       {

%   Calculates the value of the \meta{int expr} and

%   the later may be given as an integer expression. For bases greater

%     \cs{int_value:w} \meta{integer}
%     \cs{int_value:w} \meta{integer denotation} \meta{optional space}

%   Expands the following tokens until an \meta{integer} is formed, and
%   leaves a normalized form (no leading sign except for negative
%   numbers, no leading digit~|0| except for zero) in the input stream
%   as category code $12$ (other) characters.  The \meta{integer} can
%   consist of any number of signs (with intervening spaces) followed
%   by
%   \begin{itemize}
%     \item an integer variable (in fact, any \TeX{} register except

%     \item explicit digits (or by |'|\meta{octal digits} or |"|\meta{hexadecimal digits} or |`|\meta{character}).
%   \end{itemize}
%   In this last case expansion stops once a non-digit is found; if that is a
%   space it is removed as in \texttt{f}-expansion, and so \cs{exp_stop_f:}
%   may be employed as an end marker. Note that protected functions
%   \emph{are} expanded by this process.
%
%   This function requires exactly one expansion to produce a value, and so

%   As \cs{@@_eval:w} rounds the result of a division we also provide a
%   version that truncates the result. We use an auxiliary to make sure
%   numerator and denominator are only evaluated once: this comes in
%   handy when those are more expressions are expensive to evaluate
%   (\emph{e.g.}, \cs{tl_count:n}). If the numerator |#1#2| is $0$,
%   then we divide $0$ by the denominator (this ensures that $0/0$ is
%   correctly reported as an error). Otherwise, shift the numerator
%   |#1#2| towards $0$ by $(\left\vert\texttt{\#3\#4}\right\vert-1)/2$, which we
%   round away from zero. It turns out that this quantity exactly
%   compensates the difference between \eTeX{}'s rounding and the
%   truncating behavior that we want. The details are thanks to Heiko
%   Oberdiek: getting things right in all cases is not so easy.

%   Comparison tests using a simple syntax where only one set of braces
%   is required, additional operators such as |!=| and |>=| are
%   supported, and multiple comparisons can be performed at once, for
%   instance |0 < 5 <= 1|.  The idea is to loop through the argument,
%   finding one operand at a time, and comparing it to the previous one.
%   The looping auxiliary \cs{@@_compare:Nw} reads one \meta{operand}
%   and one \meta{comparison} symbol, and leaves roughly
%   \begin{quote}
%     \meta{operand} \cs{prg_return_false:} \cs{fi:} \\
%     \cs{reverse_if:N} \cs{if_int_compare:w} \meta{operand} \meta{comparison} \\
%     \cs{@@_compare:Nw}
%   \end{quote}
%   in the input stream.  Each call to this auxiliary provides the
%   second operand of the last call's \cs{if_int_compare:w}.  If one of
%   the \meta{comparisons} is \texttt{false}, the \texttt{true} branch
%   of the \TeX{} conditional is taken (because of \cs{reverse_if:N}),
%   immediately returning \texttt{false} as the result of the test.
%   There is no \TeX{} conditional waiting the first operand, so we add
%   an \cs{if_false:} and expand by hand with \cs{int_value:w}, thus
%   skipping \cs{prg_return_false:} on the first iteration.
%
%   Before starting the loop, the first step is to make sure that there
%   is at least one relation symbol.  We first let \TeX{} evaluate this
%   left hand side of the (in)equality using \cs{@@_eval:w}.  Since the
%   relation symbols |<|, |>|, |=| and |!| are not allowed in integer
%   expressions, they would terminate the expression.  If the argument contains no
%   relation symbol, \cs{@@_compare_error:} is expanded,
%   inserting~|=| and itself after an error.  In all cases,
%   \cs{@@_compare:w} receives as its argument an integer, a relation
%   symbol, and some more tokens.  We then setup the loop, which is
%   ended by the two odd-looking items |e| and |{=nd_}|, with a trailing
%   \cs{s_@@_stop} used to grab the entire argument when necessary.
%    \begin{macrocode}
\prg_new_conditional:Npnn \int_compare:n #1 { p , T , F , TF }
  {
    \exp_after:wN \@@_compare:w
    \int_value:w \@@_eval:w #1 \@@_compare_error:
  }
\cs_new:Npn \@@_compare:w #1 \@@_compare_error:
  {
    \exp_after:wN \if_false: \int_value:w
      \@@_compare:Nw #1 e { = nd_ } \s_@@_stop
  }
%    \end{macrocode}
%   The goal here is to find an \meta{operand} and a \meta{comparison}.
%   The \meta{operand} is already evaluated, but we cannot yet grab it
%   as an argument.  To access the following relation symbol, we remove
%   the number by applying \cs{@@_to_roman:w}, after making sure that
%   the argument becomes non-positive: its roman numeral representation
%   is then empty.  Then probe the first two tokens with
%   \cs{@@_compare:NNw} to determine the relation symbol, building a
%   control sequence from it (\cs{token_to_str:N} gives better errors if
%   |#1| is not a character).  All the extended forms have an extra |=|
%   hence the test for that as a second token.  If the relation symbol
%   is unknown, then the control sequence is turned by \TeX{} into
%   \cs{scan_stop:}, ignored thanks to \tn{unexpanded}, and
%   \cs{@@_compare_error:Nw} raises an error.
%    \begin{macrocode}
\cs_new:Npn \@@_compare:Nw #1#2 \s_@@_stop

      }
      \@@_compare_error:Nw #1
  }
%    \end{macrocode}
%   When the last \meta{operand} is seen, \cs{@@_compare:NNw} receives
%   |e| and |=nd_| as arguments, hence calling
%   \cs{@@_compare_end_=:NNw} to end the loop: return the result of the
%   last comparison (involving the operand that we just found).  When a
%   normal relation is found, the appropriate auxiliary calls
%   \cs{@@_compare:nnN} where |#1| is \cs{if_int_compare:w} or
%   \cs{reverse_if:N} \cs{if_int_compare:w}, |#2| is the \meta{operand},
%   and |#3| is one of |<|, |=|, or~|>|.  As announced earlier, we leave
%   the \meta{operand} for the previous conditional.  If this
%   conditional is true the result of the test is known, so we remove
%   all tokens and return \texttt{false}.  Otherwise, we apply the
%   conditional |#1| to the \meta{operand} |#2| and the comparison |#3|,
%   and call \cs{@@_compare:Nw} to look for additional operands, after
%   evaluating the following expression.
%    \begin{macrocode}
\cs_new:cpn { @@_compare_end_=:NNw } #1#2#3 e #4 \s_@@_stop

%   For conversion of integers to arbitrary symbols the method is in
%   general as follows. The input number (|#1|) is compared to the total
%   number of symbols available at each place (|#2|). If the input is larger
%   than the total number of symbols available then the modulus is needed,
%   with one added so that the positions don't have to number from
%   zero. Using an \texttt{f}-type expansion, this is done so that the system
%   is recursive. The actual conversion function therefore gets a `nice'
%   number at each stage. Of course, if the initial input was small enough
%   then there is no problem and everything is easy.

%   \Arg{code}, this function leaves in the input stream any sign it
%   finds, then inserts the \meta{code} before the first non-sign token
%   (and removes \cs{s_@@_stop}).  More precisely, it deletes any~|+| and
%   passes any~|-| to the input stream, hence should be called in an
%   integer expression.
