Comment:

 No, that is incorrect. '4e' is a valid real number even without an integer
 following it. The grammar in the docs is correct. No exceptions are
 thrown. It parses '4e' just fine. If that's not you want, then you can
 customize the real number parser.

 See http://en.cppreference.com/w/cpp/language/floating_literal


 If you do not agree with this, please start a discussion in the Spirit
 mailing list. I'm closing this one as invalid.
