Re: [QUIZ] Parsing JSON (#155)

Here are some extra unit tests i wrote.  Let me know if you think any of
them are incorrect (per the spec):

def test_more_numbers
assert_equal(5, @parser.parse("5"))
assert_equal(-5, @parser.parse("-5"))
assert_equal 45.33, @parser.parse("45.33")
assert_equal 0.33, @parser.parse("0.33")
assert_equal 0.0, @parser.parse("0.0")
assert_equal 0, @parser.parse("0")
assert_raises(RuntimeError) { @parser.parse("-5.-4") }
assert_raises(RuntimeError) { @parser.parse("01234") }
assert_equal(0.2e1, @parser.parse("0.2E1"))
assert_equal(42e10, @parser.parse("42E10"))
end

def test_more_string
  assert_equal("abc\befg", @parser.parse(%Q{"abc\\befg"}))
  assert_equal("abc\nefg", @parser.parse(%Q{"abc\\nefg"}))
  assert_equal("abc\refg", @parser.parse(%Q{"abc\\refg"}))
  assert_equal("abc\fefg", @parser.parse(%Q{"abc\\fefg"}))
  assert_equal("abc\tefg", @parser.parse(%Q{"abc\\tefg"}))
  assert_equal("abc\\efg", @parser.parse(%Q{"abc\\\\efg"}))
  assert_equal("abc/efg", @parser.parse(%Q{"abc\\/efg"}))
end

def test_more_object_parsing
  assert_equal({'a'=>2,'b'=>4}, @parser.parse(%Q{{   "a" : 2 , "b":4 }}))
  assert_raises(RuntimeError) { @parser.parse(%Q{{   "a" : 2, }}) }
  assert_raises(RuntimeError) { @parser.parse(%Q{[   "a" , 2, ]}) }
end
