Bison row adder

Simple program which checks rows data type coherency, sums them and displays result in correct format.

Capabilities and limitations

• deducing row's type (integer, hexadecimal, decimal fraction, scientific),
• row summing and displaying results in correct format (based on type),
• can't recognize rows of hexadecimals with no letters correctly (recognized as integer rows),
• limited precision (15 decimal places),
• error detection (invalid row data),
• line and column tracking (used in error detection).

Example Data

1 34 891 2
2 23 7A1 C45 91
3 34.9 1.001 0.2567
4 23.4E+20 0.1E-3 1.4E+15
5 1 2 3 4 5

Requirements

To compile this program you need:

• C++ compiler
• Flex binaries
• Bison binaries (may require additional binaries)

Software used for this project

• MinGW - Minimalist GNU for Windows
• Flex for Windows
• Bison for Windows
• Visual Studio Code with Lex Flex Yacc Bison plugin

Console commands (used by me on Windows)

1. bison.exe -dy interpreter.y
2. flex.exe interpreter.lex
3. g++.exe y.tab.c lex.yy.c -o "your_exe_name.exe"
