A library of routines designed to support consequent input (parsing) and output (formatting) of various numeric types: among them integer, floating-point, Roman, UTF-8 encoded sub-/superscript integers. Output can be aligned. Numeric get procedures support value range checks. Number bases can be from binary to hexadecimal for both input and output. Floating-point output supports both absolute and relative precision specification. All input and output routines have short forms for direct string conversions. Checked conversions between UTF-8, Latin-1 and UCS-2 strings are provided. UTF-8 wildcard matching and case conversions provided.
