Fixes #125
This change improves arithmetic overflow detection when reading numbers in
NumberTokenizer
. The previous check doesn't work when the result happens to overflow to a value larger than the current one. Instead, I implemented two custom overflow checks for multiplication and addition.Things to discuss:
TryMultiply
andTryAdd
seem reasonable to me, but maybe I forgot something. An alternative would be to play it safe, use a checked expression and catchOverflowException
, thus trading some simplicity for slightly worse performance in corner cases.
