Package io.jawk.jrt

Class StrNum

java.lang.Object
io.jawk.jrt.StrNum
public final class StrNum extends Object
An input-derived scalar: text that may also act as a number, following POSIX "numeric string" (strnum) semantics. Input fields, getline results, split() pieces, and similar input-originated values are represented as instances of this class so comparisons and gawk's typeof() can distinguish them from plain string constants.
