Define a C++ language float literal using regular expression. A float literal in C language has an optional exponent part.                                                                                                                    If a float literal is written without exponent part, then it must have a decimal point which can appear at the start, at the end or in the middle of digits, as in following examples:                           123.456                         .456                         456.   If float literal is written with exponent, then decimal point in mantissa part is optional, and exponent is a whole number with optional sign, as in following examples:               123e78             123e+78             123e-78             123.456e78             .456e78             456.e78

Define a C++ language float literal using regular expression. A float literal in C language has an optional exponent part.                                                                                                                   

If a float literal is written without exponent part, then it must have a decimal point which can appear at the start, at the end or in the middle of digits, as in following examples:

 

                        123.456

                        .456

                        456.

 

If float literal is written with exponent, then decimal point in mantissa part is optional, and exponent is a whole number with optional sign, as in following examples:

 

            123e78

            123e+78

            123e-78

            123.456e78

            .456e78

            456.e78
