New child language - (Function member address (structure))

Yeah, but it is because you're converting double to int, you should cast the pointer (unsafely let me say) to understand its real unsigned int value:

double Val = 123456.0;
cout << Val << endl;
cout << *(unsigned int *)(&Val) << endl;

And well, double to int in the built-in way is the fastest way.
Thinking in low-level operations, this isn't really fast, but it's the only way through.

Anyways let me show you the format of double and floating point values in the IEEE (common) format: http://steve.hollasch.net/cgindex/coding/ieeefloat.html
You have the table at the beggining of the "Storage Layout" section.

Ok, Hi everyone again, thanks all people, now I have to finish....!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I'm going to come back someday...Pray... :)

Ok, Here're things I've done :

Basic operators (+); (-); (*); (/); (%); (=); (^); //power operator
Basic comparsion operators (>[=]); (<[=]); (==); (!=);
Unary expression (!)
Type cast [unsigned signed int double bool]
And - Or expression (&& - ||)
Parentheses ()
'char' to value
operator (expression) ? value : value
Fixed space ignoring...
Fixed bad memory allocation...
Fixed bad parsing method...

Speed : 3.000.000 characters per second (= three million)

Now I can write :

x = 10 + [unsigned int] 5 * 3 / 5 * 
(!(20 % 5) ? ((10 < 15) && (15 <= 20) || (20 > 2)) ? !(5 != 5) + 100)+
1+(1+(1+(1+(1+(1+(1+(8 = 10 ^5)-1)-1)-1)-1)-1)-1) / (2.5 * 3.14) =
1.05 / 5.00 +(1-(2 == 2) * 'h' - 'e' - 'l' - 'l' - 'o' + '  ' + 
'w' - 'o' - 'r' - 'l' - 'd') !!= 
('B' - 'y' - 'e' - ',' - 'p' - 'e' - 'o' - 'p' - 'l' - 'e' - '!' - '!' - '!')

Updated version: http://pastebin.com/rubzJBDR
Just adds a couple rules to give ^ the correct precedence, gets rid of variadic functions, and adds a read-eval-print loop.

Also, no. It doesn't not run properly.

[Imadatobanisa]

Ok, thanks! I'll take them.
It works correctly. Thanks you!

My time measuring code :

#define HowMany 10000000 //10.000.000 //You can change it at any time

int nProgress = -1;
unsigned int t = clock();
///////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////
for(volatile unsigned int i = 0;i < HowMany;i++)
{
if(i % (Times / 100) == 0)
printf("Progress  : %d\n", ++nProgress);
//Commands...
// Parser evaluator ("2^2^2");
// double res=0;
// evaluator.eval(res);

}
///////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////
printf("Time : %.3f\n", (clock() - t) / 1000.0f);

Please, let's me know your CPU speed and the maximum-minimum speed that the Parser has ever reached with its duration.

First of all, a little thing about your code :

- How do you think about your code? In my point of view, it's quite difficult to continue developing next important features (Comparison, string detector, Hex value etc)...
- How many rules that the Parser in future will have? And.. super rules...???

Some trivial things I can see :) :

enum TokenType{
		null=0,
		END=1,
		INTEGER='0',
		PLUS='+',
		MINUS='-',
		MUL='*',
		DIV='/',
		POW='^',
		LPAREN='(',
		RPAREN=')',
		expr=128
	} type;

Please note that these characters have a very high value, and certainly they cause the program performs slower than normal at all...

enum TokenType{
		null=0,
		END=1,
		INTEGER=0,
		PLUS=1,
		//MINUS=2, //I think I should get rid of "minus"
		MUL=3,
		DIV=4,
		POW=5,
		LPAREN=6,
		RPAREN=7
	} type;

expr=128
That is the maximum number of expressions that the Parser can hold right?

Size(of) (Parser) : 176 - Rule size : (48) - Token size : (16)

Honestly, OH MY GOD!!! Why your parser needs so much memory..???

isdigit(character)

Actually, I don't really know about its speed, but the better one :

if(chr >= '0' && chr <= '9') //Instant result
chr -= '0';//Then... 

[Imadatobanisa]

Finally, the Ultra-fast comparison method has been found!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I have the code (which I made before) :

char *IntToBit(long long int x, char *str, char *Temp){
	int nCount = 0;
	while(x)
	{
   if (x&1)
      str[nCount] = '1';
    else
      str[nCount] = '0';

	  nCount++;
    
    x>>=1;  
  }

  str[nCount] = 0;

	for(int i =0;i < nCount;i++)
	Temp[i] = str[nCount - 1 - i]; //Reverse order
	Temp[nCount] = 0;

	return Temp;
}

Now, I want to know the number binary bits (such as : '(')
The code gives :

101000

Then, use the formula l & (1 << i) to get the i'th bit.
Instead of :

if(56 == 40)

1st
1|1|1|0|0|0|
1|0|1|0|0|0|

2nd
1|1|1|0|0|
1|0|1|0|0|

3rd
1|1|1|0|
1|0|1|0|

4th
1|1|1|
1|0|1|

5th
1|1 //Wrong !!!
1|0 //Wrong !!!

6th
return 0;

So I'll only need to check a few bits, because I'm not going to hunt all characters. My targets are operators, so if my guess is right, it'll increase the parsing speed at least... 2x Faster!!!

What do you think about this idea? :)

[firedraco]

Please note that these characters have a very high value, and certainly they cause the program performs slower than normal at all...

I really think you are trolling. Do you really think 1 + 2 takes longer than 5 + 5?

Honestly, OH MY GOD!!! Why your parser needs so much memory..???

Wat.

Finally, the Ultra-fast comparison method has been found!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

What is this method doing and why are you making the user pass variables for no reason? It doesn't even compare anything.

[Imadatobanisa]

firedraco wrote:

I said those are characters....so ('0' == '0') is slower (0 == 0)

Some trivial things I can see :) :

You may ignore this, but moreover, because of the code performance

firedraco wrote:

if my guess is right,

It works, but reducing the number of checking commands is better, also because of the code performance.

[helios]

Wait. You're doing what? Am I to understand that you're trying to optimize integer comparison? If so, that's the biggest wastes of time I've ever heard of.

How do you think about your code? In my point of view, it's quite difficult to continue developing next important features (Comparison, string detector, Hex value etc)...

The parser is mostly a learning tool. It was never meant to be used for anything serious.
However, doing these things is not terribly difficult. Just a little more difficult than with, say, Bison.

Please note that these characters have a very high value, and certainly they cause the program performs slower than normal at all...

"Certainly"? How are you so sure?

Size(of) (Parser) : 176 - Rule size : (48) - Token size : (16)

What are you talking about? Do you even understand how much memory this is?

Actually, I don't really know about its speed, but the better one :

Define "better".

[Imadatobanisa]

Ok the first thing that I say...I don't really know much the new C++11 functions & features. Perhaps.
The current problem now is solving the compiling errors :

str.push_back(this->stream.get());

Line (74): error C2039: 'push_back' : is not a member of
 'basic_string<char,struct std::char_traits<char>,class std::allocator<char> >'

I replaced it with :
str += this->stream.get();
But most likely the code may be wrong.

Those are 18 rules total (rule_index)...

Some of this :
//impossible ???

Now I have some examples :

//x = PLUS;
//x = '+';
//x = 43 

Maybe making a new specific enum for Token type is better.

'push_back' : is not a member of

What kind of ancient compiler are you using? push_back() has been part of std::string since C++98.

@helios
Once again, I am still using VS2005.
But, actually that compiler is VS2005 service pack 1 (I see the compiler about box). By that time before got the compiler, I had bought it.

Most likely it's a problem, I'm sure, because certainly it's outdated. :)

[Volatile Pulse]

@Jackson Marie
Microsoft Visual Studio Express is free for 2010 and 2012. Why not update? At least you will get a more up to date compiler, and a few extra features all at no cost (See: http://www.microsoft.com/visualstudio/eng/downloads (scroll down a bit to Express)).

Or, you could upgrade to g++ (I hate MSVC++ compiler and IDE) and use a different, less cluttered IDE like Code::Blocks, again free.

@helios
I'm curious, what do you use? Text Editor or IDE? Compiler? OS?

[devonrevenge]

Hows all this going miss Jackson Marie?

When can i test it?

[helios]

I'm curious, what do you use? Text Editor or IDE? Compiler? OS?

It depends on what I'm doing.
For quick tests that I don't expect will need much debugging, I just write in Notepad++ and compile with GCC from the command line. For everything else, I use VC++. On the few occasions I was forced by the circumstances to code/debug on Linux, I used Eclipse. I really like how detailed the configuration is, and it almost makes gdb usable.

I've also tried Clang. I, the particular codebase I tried, didn't notice a significant difference in the performance of the output vs. VC++ or GCC, but the compiler messages are definitely of higher quality. If nothing else, as a static analyzer it's probably the best out there.

[Volatile Pulse]

@helios
In regards to using N++ with gcc, have you looked into the built in command line features? I don't remember the name of it anymore, but it was perfect for building, compiling, running, etc. You can even type custom commands in it. I mainly used it for compilation with my header files or single files. I had also mapped certain commands to the right click context menu so that once I was happy, I right clicked, selected Compile & Run, which autosaved my file, compiled it, and ran it in the command line at the bottom of N++. It was nifty to test quick examples in an extremely lightweight environment.

In regards to VC++, I hate it. I've used it, it's a memory hog, slow as molasses on my computer, and feels so bloated (great for extremely large projects). Have you ever tried C::B? It defaults to using g++ (since you already have it installed, you just need to add it to the toolchain exes) and feels smoother than N++ and only a little more power hungry, it is a full blown IDE btw.

I used Eclipse once or twice (on Windows) but wasn't found of not being able to compile a small Hello World application. Apparently to get a compiler to work on windows with it took a lot of steps and I just gave up.

That's all just my 2 cents.
