;; <h2>Infix expression parser</h2>
;; Parses infix, prefix or postfix expressions given in strings and returns a
;; newLISP expressions, which can be evaluated; captures syntax errors.
;;
;; At the beginning od the program using this module include the following
;; statement:
;; <pre>
;; (load "/usr/share/newlisp/modules/infix.lsp")
;; ; or shorter
;; (module "infix.lsp")
;; </pre>
;; @syntax (INFIX:xlate <str-expression> [<context-target>])
;; @param <str-expression> The infix expression in a string
;; @param <context-target> An optional context as compile taret.
;; @return A newLISP expression or 'nil' on failure.
;; When 'nil' is returned then the error message is in 'result'.
;; As an optional second parameter a target context can be passed,
;; if not used, MAIN is assumed.
;;
;; Note that the parser requires operators, variables and constants surrounded
;; by spaces except where parenthesis are used.
;;
;; @example
;; (INFIX:xlate "3 + 4") => (add 3 4) ;; parses infix
;; (INFIX:xlate "+ 3 4") => (add 3 4) ;; parses prefix s-expressions
;; (INFIX:xlate "3 4 +") => (add 2 4) ;; parses postfix
;;
;; (INFIX:xlate "3 + * 4") => "ERR: missing argument for +"
;;
;; (eval (INFIX:xlate "3 + 4")) => 7
;;
;; (INFIX:xlate "(3 + 4) * (5 - 2)") => (mul (add 3 4) (sub 5 2))
;;
;; (INFIX:xlate "(a + b) ^ 2 + (a - b) ^ 2") => (add (pow (add a b) 2) (pow (sub a b) 2))
;;
;; (INFIX:xlate "x = (3 + sin(20)) * (5 - 2)") => (setq x (mul (add 3 (sin 20)) (sub 5 2)))
;;
;; (INFIX:xlate "x = (3 + sin(10 - 2)) * (5 - 2)")
;; => (setq x (mul (add 3 (sin (sub 10 2))) (sub 5 2)))
