LaTeXML::Number(3pm) User Contributed Perl Documentation LaTeXML::Number(3pm) NAME
"LaTeXML::Number" - representation of numbers, dimensions, skips and glue. DESCRIPTION
This module defines various dimension and number-like data objects "LaTeXML::Number" represents numbers, "LaTeXML::Float" represents floating-point numbers, "LaTeXML::Dimension" represents dimensions, "LaTeXML::MuDimension" represents math dimensions, "LaTeXML::Glue" represents glue (skips), "LaTeXML::MuGlue" represents math glue, "LaTeXML::Pair" represents pairs of numbers "LaTeXML::Pairlist" represents list of pairs. Common methods The following methods apply to all objects. "@tokens = $object->unlist;" Return a list of the tokens making up this $object. "$string = $object->toString;" Return a string representing $object. "$string = $object->ptValue;" Return a value representing $object without the measurement unit (pt) with limited decimal places. Numerics methods These methods apply to the various numeric objects "$n = $object->valueOf;" Return the value in scaled points (ignoring shrink and stretch, if any). "$n = $object->smaller($other);" Return $object or $other, whichever is smaller "$n = $object->larger($other);" Return $object or $other, whichever is larger "$n = $object->absolute;" Return an object representing the absolute value of the $object. "$n = $object->sign;" Return an integer: -1 for negatives, 0 for 0 and 1 for positives "$n = $object->negate;" Return an object representing the negative of the $object. "$n = $object->add($other);" Return an object representing the sum of $object and $other "$n = $object->subtract($other);" Return an object representing the difference between $object and $other "$n = $object->multiply($n);" Return an object representing the product of $object and $n (a regular number).

LaTeXML::Bib(3pm) User Contributed Perl Documentation LaTeXML::Bib(3pm) NAME
"LaTeXML::Bib" - implements a BibTeX parser for LaTeXML. DESCRIPTION
"LaTeXML::Bib" serves as a low-level parser of BibTeX database files. It parses and stores a "LaTeXML::Bib::BibEntry" for each entry into the current STATE. BibTeX "string" macros are substituted into the field values, but no other processing of the data is done. See "LaTeXML::Package::BibTeX.pool.ltxml" for how further processing is carried out, and can be customized. Creating a Bib "my $bib = LaTeXML::Bib->newFromFile($bibname);" Creates a "LaTeXML::Bib" object representing a bibliography from a BibTeX database file. "my $bib = LaTeXML::Bib->newFromString($string);" Creates a "LaTeXML::Bib" object representing a bibliography from a string containing the BibTeX data. Methods "$string = $bib->toTeX;" Returns a string containing the TeX code to be digested by a LaTeXML object to process the bibliography. The string contains all @PREAMBLE data and invocations of "\ProcessBibTeXEntry{$key}" for each bibliographic entry. The $key can be used to lookup the data from $STATE as "LookupValue('BIBITEM@'.$key)". See "BibTeX.pool" for how the processing is carried out. BibEntry objects The representation of a BibTeX entry. "$type = $bibentry->getType;" Returns a string naming the entry type of the entry (No aliasing is done here). "$key = $bibentry->getKey;" Returns the bibliographic key for the entry. "@fields = $bibentry->getFields;" Returns a list of pairs "[$name,$value]" representing all fields, in the order defined, for the entry. Both the $name and $value are strings. Field names may be repeated, if they are in the bibliography. "$value = $bibentry->getField($name);" Returns the value (or "undef") associated with the the given field name. If the field was repeated in the bibliography, only the last one is returned. AUTHOR
