tonumber fails to convert float numbers without decimal point

Open meetmauro opened this issue 7 years ago • 3 comments

Tonumber does not convert float numbers like "3e6" and gives back nil. Proposed modification tries to convert to integer first and if failing to float.

@meetmauro Thanks for your contribution, could you add a tests to _glua-tests/issues.lua ?

Hi @yuin I tried adding the test to the issues.lua but that is in turn failing in other places when I run it with glua to test it... ./glua _glua-tests/issues.lua gives issues.lua line:174(column:18) near '(': ambiguous syntax (function call x new statement) not sure how to proceed... Is this the right way to run the lua tests?
