I am trying to match a whole string, to be an integer number. My thinking is, that an integer starts with a non zero digit and then goes on with an arbitrary number of digits (including zero). I put it in a regexp as follows:
(regexp-match #rx"[1-9]+[0-9]*" (current-input-port)) But this is not correct, as Racket will try to match this anywhere in the string. For example it will give me the list containing "1" as a result when I input "01". I have to specify, that it shall match the whole string. So I add ^ and $ to it: (regexp-match #rx"^[1-9]+[0-9]*$" (current-input-port)) But when I try this on the REPL, it never stops wanting to receive more input. No matter how many times I press the enter key, it only jumps to a new line, expecting more input. On https://docs.racket-lang.org/reference/regexp.html#%28def._%28%28quote._~23~25kernel%29._regexp-match%29%29 under 4.7.1 circumflex and dollar sign are said to be start and end, so I am not sure what I am doing wrong. Is it the fact that the input stream does not really end and begin? When I try: (regexp-match #rx"[1-9]+[0-9]*" (read-line (current-input-port) 'any)) I get immediately #f, as if I already entered something. (OK I pressed enter to run that line of code …) How do I solve this problem? -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Racket Users" group.
