In "Strings", the following syntax is given in the documentation:
PROCEDURE StringToInt (IN s: ARRAY OF CHAR; OUT x, res: INTEGER)
Syntax:
number = ( [ "+" | "-" ] dec | hex ) 0X .
dec = digit { digit } .
hex = hexdigit { hexdigit } ("H" | "X") .
hexdigit = digit | "A" | "B" | "C" | "D" | "E" | "F" .
digit = "0" | "1" | "2" | "3" | "4" | "5" | "6" | "7" | "8" |
"9" .
According to the above syntax, "-0" is legal. I also note that TextMappers
processes the string "-0.0" without errors.
