• A “-” is allowed only after an
E
or at the first position.
• If the previous position is “.”, then an E is not allowed.
• If the first character is a “-” and the current index is 1 , then a “.” is not allowed.
• If the previous position is a “-”, then a
0
is not allowed.
• If the next character is an E , then a “.” is not allowed at the previous location.
