+/* math.h - interface to shell math "library" -- this allows shells to share
+ * the implementation of arithmetic $((...)) expansions.
+ *
+ * This aims to be a POSIX shell math library as documented here:
+ * http://www.opengroup.org/onlinepubs/9699919799/utilities/V3_chap02.html#tag_18_06_04
+ *
+ * See math.c for internal documentation.
+ */
+
+/* The math library has just one function:
+ *
+ * arith_t arith(const char *expr, int *perrcode, arith_eval_hooks_t *hooks);
+ *
+ * The first argument is the math string to parse. All normal expansions must
+ * be done already. i.e. no dollar symbols should be present.
+ *
+ * The second argument is a semi-detailed error description in case something
+ * goes wrong in the parsing steps. Currently, those values are (for
+ * compatibility, you should assume all negative values are errors):
+ * 0 - no errors (yay!)
+ * -1 - unspecified problem
+ * -2 - divide by zero
+ * -3 - exponent less than 0
+ * -5 - expression recursion loop detected
+ *
+ * The third argument is a struct pointer of hooks for your shell (see below).
+ *
+ * The function returns the answer to the expression. So if you called it
+ * with the expression:
+ * "1 + 2 + 3"
+ * You would obviously get back 6.
+ */
+
+/* To add support to a shell, you need to implement three functions:
+ *
+ * lookupvar() - look up and return the value of a variable
+ *
+ * If the shell does:
+ * foo=123
+ * Then the code:
+ * const char *val = lookupvar("foo");
+ * Will result in val pointing to "123"
+ *
+ * setvar() - set a variable to some value
+ *
+ * If the arithmetic expansion does something like:
+ * $(( i = 1))
+ * Then the math code will make a call like so:
+ * setvar("i", "1", 0);
+ * The storage for the first two parameters are not allocated, so your
+ * shell implementation will most likely need to strdup() them to save.
+ *
+ * endofname() - return the end of a variable name from input
+ *
+ * The arithmetic code does not know about variable naming conventions.
+ * So when it is given an experession, it knows something is not numeric,
+ * but it is up to the shell to dictate what is a valid identifiers.
+ * So when it encounters something like:
+ * $(( some_var + 123 ))
+ * It will make a call like so:
+ * end = endofname("some_var + 123");
+ * So the shell needs to scan the input string and return a pointer to the
+ * first non-identifier string. In this case, it should return the input
+ * pointer with an offset pointing to the first space. The typical
+ * implementation will return the offset of first char that does not match
+ * the regex (in C locale): ^[a-zA-Z_][a-zA-Z_0-9]*
+ */
+
+/* To make your life easier when dealing with optional 64bit math support,
+ * rather than assume that the type is "signed long" and you can always
+ * use "%ld" to scan/print the value, use the arith_t helper defines. See
+ * below for the exact things that are available.
