FA-3366 / Lexical grammars / Open access

A decimal point has no fractional digits · case 01

A decimal point has no fractional digits.

Verified by executionVariant 1 · 4 checks per implementationDownload source bundle ↓JSON ↗

ROOT CAUSE

The recognizer uses '-?[0-9]+\\.?[0-9]*', which admits or omits a token shape forbidden by the stated grammar.

VERIFIED REPAIR

Implement the complete stated contract, including the boundary fixtures: Accept canonical signed decimals with optional fraction and no exponent.

Unsuccessful approach: The candidate grammar '-?[0-9]+(?:\\.[0-9]+)?' still disagrees with the explicit boundary fixtures.

Case contract

Accept canonical signed decimals with optional fraction and no exponent.

Why this case matters

A local executable model for consumers of structured text; oracle values are authored literals, not outputs copied from the repaired implementation.

Verification & scope

This reproducer isolates one failure mechanism. Results cover the supplied fixtures. Variants within a family share a test contract and should remain grouped when constructing evaluation splits. Related mechanisms with a shared evaluation_group must also remain together; these controlled models are not independent production incidents.
