Calculating tokens in c statement
As far as I understand C code parsing, the tokens are (10 in total):
printf
(
"i = %d, &i = %x"
,
i
,
&
i
)
;
I don't count white space, it's generally meaningless and only serves as a separator between other tokens, and I don't break down the string literal into pieces, because it's an integral entity of its own.
This looks very much like a school assignment or something, but depending on whether or not whitespace counts: 10 or 12 (or 13, if whitespace counts and there is an ending newline)
'printf' '(' '"i = %d, &i = %x"' ',' 'i' ',' '&' 'i' ')' ';'
1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10
yes totally 10 tokens.Because the characters which are represented in quotes can be treated as single token by the lexical analyser(LA).that is the property of LA.
