Perhaps I don't speak everyday English.
Most people probably rarely use the word "integer". When they do,
if they use it correctly, they use it to refer to the set of numbers
with no fractional part, which can be positive, zero, or negative.
I've never heard the word "integer" used in a way that excludes
negative numbers.
The way I was taught in elementary school:
The integers are ..., -2, -1, 0, 1, 2 ...
The natural numbers are 1, 2, ...
The whole numbers are 0, 1, 2, ...
There isn't universal agreement on whether the natural and/or whole
numbers include 0. Ada, for example, has a subtype Natural whose lower
bound is 0 (Positive starts at 1), which was very slightly jarring when
I first encountered it.

I suspect that most people who would use the word "integer" without
being prompted would use it correctly.

But they understand it as "I owe the bank $100" - they don't view it as "I have -$100 in my bank account". Even when looking at ledgers and accounts, they will primarily see a negative number as an indication of a positive amount moved in the other direction - the minus sign is symbolic, with alternatives such as parentheses or red type meaning the same thing. When adding up the numbers, they do not see it as adding some positive and negative numbers together - they see it as sometimes adding numbers, sometimes subtracting them. In almost all everyday situations that appear to use signed numbers, people do not consider negative numbers. Rather, they think of non-negative numbers with a tag attached for the direction. We might write that a stock market change is -2%, but we say and think that it has gone down 2% - no negative numbers are involved. Even in C (in a desperate attempt to bring us back on topic for the group), there are no negative integer constants - merely positive integer constants with a unary minus operator applied. > >> So if you ask someone random "Do you know what an integer is?", a >> likely response will be "That's a whole number, isn't it?

If -5 were a single token (an integer constant), then 6-5 would be an
integer constant 6 followed by an integer constant -5, a syntax error.
If INT_MIN is -2147483648 and INT_MAX is 2147483647, the expression
-2147483648 is of type long int. Implementations of <limits.h> have to
work around this.

I suppose it would be possible to define a language syntax that makes
-5 a single token and still parses 6-5 as (literal 6, binary-minus,
literal-5). C is certainly not that language. If a future C
standard made -5 a valid integer literal, I'm not at all sure what
other changes would have to be made to avoid breaking existing code.
You'll want to have both unary and binary "-" operators anyway,
so you can write "-x". As long as you have a unary "-" operator,
making "-5" a single token doesn't give you much -- and then you
have to explain why "-x" is two tokens but "-5" is just one, or why
"-5" and "- 5" are parsed differently.
Note that the strto*() functions recognize strings that look like
an integer constant/literal "optionally preceded by a plus or
minus sign".
I don't know of any language that uses "-" for both negation (prefix,
one operand) and subtraction (infix, two operands) and treats -5
as a single token rather than a unary minus operator applied to the
constant/literal "5".

I'm sure a language could have syntax and parsing rules that interpreted the minus sign as binary minus in "x-y", unary minus in "-x", and part of the literal in "-5" if it is not preceded by an operand that has a suitable subtraction operation. But I think the rules would get fairly complicated - much more so than the rules of C syntax and parsing. It would be a lot easier in a language that required spaces to separate tokens. Then it would be simple to distinguish "x - y" and "-5" - the binary subtraction operator is always space-minus-space, while in a literal, the minus sign has no space on its right. "- 5" would then be parsed as unary minus applied to the literal "5", and "-x" would be a single token unrelated to "x". This is how it is handled in Forth - there, "-5" is a single token for the literal value of minus five (unless some silly bugger has redefined -5 to something else...). If you want to apply unary minus to 5, you write "5 NEGATE" (as Forth uses RPN notation). > > I don't know of any language that uses "-" for both negation (prefix, > one operand) and subtraction (infix, two operands) and treats -5 > as a single token rather than a unary minus operator applied to the > constant/literal "5". > For the most part, the important part of the grammar is the "constant expression" or "integer constant expression" - and you get that whether "-5" is parsed as one token (in a hypothetical C variant) or two tokens.

I as well don't know. It may simplify things if the '-' is detached from a numeric positive literal, especially for numeric expressions. There's certainly cases where a signed numeric token is appropriate, thinking (for example) about a CONST declaration in Pascal, like CONST a = -5; here you don't have expressions, just the primitive type literals.[*] The point why I think that a signed literal as entity may be useful is that it's a static (compile time) property; -5 is in that respect different from -x, the negation operation. A negative constant does not "cost" a run-time operation. Given what we recently discussed about a division by a constant, where compilers (may) handle expressions by pre-calculating the reciprocal for run-time efficiency, it's not that clear to me that it matters either way. I suppose it's a question of whether it complicates syntax definition or parsing. Janis [*] Note: Pascal, syntactically, also doesn't have signed constants, the sign is in all those contexts an explicit token, not part of the number token. This holds for both, a 'CONST' declaration and being part of an INTEGER literal in an expression. The 'REAL' literals are also handled that way, the overall sign is not part of the numeric token, but the sign of its exponent *is* part of the 'REAL' token.

Having a single token like '-1234' is pointless. Most languages allow you to add parentheses like '-(1234)' which must give the exact same result. And many also reduce expressions like '1234+1' to '12345' at compile time. In this case you'd want '-(1234+1)' to be equivalent to '-1235'. Or there may be a named alias 'X' for 1234, and later write '-X'. So there is no advantage to it, except possibly in the special case where the N in -N is something like INT_MIN, as N could have a different type.

In above post there's not a specific or "most" languages given as example for a possible rationale. (There was an example given that expects [in Pascal] a constant numeric literal, not an expression.) '-1234' is a standard representation (a literal) for a number. '-(1234)' is an expression (with parenthesis and a negation op). Even '- 1234' (with a space) can be considered an expression, or not, depending on whether a language would allow spaces as part of numeric literals or not. > > And many also reduce expressions like '1234+1' to '12345' at compile > time.

How about Lisp? The unary operator is (- 5), the binary (- 10 5).
It doesn't match your second parenthetical remark ("infix") but
otherwise it does.
-5 is syntactically not an operator followed by a constant. It surely
gets parsed as a single token.

Lisp could be infix if we want with some macro:
(infix-environment
... (10 - (a * 3)) ...)
Here, the fictional macro infix-environment implements a code walker of
its interior looking for situations where the second place of a form is
a symbol with a function binding, and the first place isn't a symbol, or
not one with a function binding. Those expressions are then treated by
a conversion of (x1 x2 x3 ...) to (infix x1 x2 x3). When the conversion
is complete, the infix-environment macro removes itself, or rewrites
itself to progn. The (also fictitious) infix macro then expands the
infixes, turning (infix 10 - (a * 3)) into (- 10 (* a 3)).
Things like (a cons (b cons c)) would also work for (cons a (cons b c)),
not only math infix. However, the infix macro could recognize
infix without parentheses, using operator precedence.
So then we would have a language in which we have - A unary,
A - B infix, and -5 is a negative constant.

I had been toying with the idea in my mind for a while, and this gave me the
impetus to get it working. It's very simple if you extend the Lisp dialect with
a suitable code walking hook.
Working, advanced proof of concept:
$ ./txr -i infix.tl
TXR's no-spray organic production means every bug is carefully removed by hand.
1> (ifx (let ((a 1) (b 2) (c 3))
((a + b) * 3)))

I'm going to post about this in more detail in comp.lang.lisp, where
it is topical.

I know about Lisp. It doesn't match my description, for the reasons
you pointed out. It use of -5 as a single token doesn't present the
problems it would in a more C-like language.

It does make a difference in some contexts, but not in that one. The problem I remember best is that if, for instance, the minimum integer that can be represented by an int has the value -32768, then the integer literal 32768 represents a value too big to be represented as an integer, so it has the type 'long int' rather than 'int'. As result, since the expression -32768 is parsed as the unary - operator applied to 32768, that expression also has the type 'long int'. That makes it unsuitable as the #definition of INT_MIN. A popular alternative is to #define INT_MIN as (-32767-1). The same issue applies to INT_MIN regardless of what value it has, I chose 16 bits only to reduce typing.

But they understand it as "I owe the bank $100" - they don't > view it as "I have -$100 in my bank account". Even when looking at They do if you have an overdraft. If you have a formal loan, then there will be some positively running account representing it. (At least in the English-speaking word, where we have debits and credits which reverse polarity between asset versus liability type accounts.) It would definitely make sense for a loan account to have a negative balance which increases toward zero as it is paid off. Then the value of your account portfolio in that bank could be calculated simply by adding your accounts together. Moreover, when you move money from some chequing account to the mortgage account, it would be a transaction which contains values that add to zero: Chequing account -300; loan account +300. Otherwise it has to be: Checquing account: debit 300; loan account credit 300. Which means that a "credit" is subtractive to a loan account rather than additive. Under this system, you never see a negative unless some account is overdrawn. I have an accounting system for self-employment activities which works this way rather than the debit-credit system. The debit credit system is confusing. For mortgaging, I deal with a bank which gets something wrong on statements: Would you believe it, they add together the value of the checking account, and the mortgqge account, both being positive. Then they call that the value of your account! E.g. if you have a $5,000 balance in the checquing account, and $50,000 in the mortgage account, they call that a value of $55,000. I wrote them an e-mail and they acknowledged this, but nothing was done; typical bureaucracy. They would not have made that mistake with -55,000 and 5,000. -- TXR Programming Language: http://nongnu.org/txr Cygnal: Cygwin Native Application Library: http://kylheku.com/cygnal Mastodon: @Kazinator@mstdn.ca
