=head1 NAME

String::Scanf - emulate sscanf() of the C library

=head1 SYNOPSIS

    use String::Scanf; # imports sscanf()

    ($a, $b, $c, $d) = sscanf("%d+%d %f-%s", $input);
    ($e, $f, $g, $h) = sscanf("%x %o %s:%3c"); # input defaults to $_

    $r = String::Scanf::format_to_re($f);

or

    # works only for Perl 5.005 or later
    use String::Scanf qw(); # import nothing

    my $s1 = String::Scanf->new("%d+%d %f-%s");
    my $s2 = String::Scanf->new("%x %o %s:%3c");

    ($a, $b, $c, $d) = $s1->sscanf($input);
    ($e, $f, $g, $h) = $s2->sscanf(); # input defaults to $_

=head1 DESCRIPTION

String::Scanf supports scanning strings for data using formats
similar to the libc/stdio sscanf().

The supported sscanf() formats are as follows:

=over 4

=item %d

Decimal integer, with optional plus or minus sign.

=item %u

Decimal unsigned integer, with optional plus sign.

=item %x

Hexadecimal unsigned integer, with optional "0x" or "0x" in front.

=item %o

Octal unsigned integer.

=item %e %f %g

(The [efg] work identically.)

Decimal floating point number, with optional plus or minus sign,
in any of these formats:

    1
    1.
    1.23
    .23
    1e45
    1.e45
    1.23e45
    .23e45

The exponent has an optional plus or minus sign, and the C<e> may also be C<E>.

The various borderline cases like C<Inf> and C<Nan> are not recognized.

=item %s

A non-whitespace string.

=item %c

A string of characters.  An array reference is returned containing
the numerical values of the characters.

=item %%

A literal C<%>.

=back

The sscanf() formats [pnSC] are not supported.

The C<%s> and C<%c> have an optional maximum width, e.g. C<%4s>,
in which case at most so many characters are consumed (but fewer
characters are also accecpted).

The numeric formats may also have such a width but it is ignored.

The numeric formats may have C<[hl]> before the main option, e.g. C<%hd>,
but since such widths have no meaning in Perl, they are ignored.

Non-format parts of the parameter string are matched literally
(e.g. C<:> matches as C<:>),
expect that any whitespace is matched as any whitespace
(e.g. C< > matches as C<\s+>).

=head1 WARNING

The numeric formats match only something that looks like a number,
they do not care whether it fits into the numbers of Perl.  In other
words, C<123e456789> is valid for C<sscanf()>, but quite probably it
won't fit into your Perl's numbers.  Consider using the various
Math::* modules instead.
