Hi, I have this code in C for Flex/Lex, the only problem is that as I try to compile it it shows some errors and I dont know how to fix them.
letter [a-zA-Z]
digit[0-9]
%%
{digit}+("E"("+"|"-")?{digit}+)? printf("\n%s\tis real number",yytext);
{digit}+"."{digit}+("E"("+"|"-")?{digit}+)? printf("\n%s\t is floating pt no ",yytext);
"if"|"else"|"int"|"char"|"scanf"|"printf"|"switch"|"return"|"struct"|"do"|"while"|"void"|"for"|"float" printf("\n%s\t is keywords",yytext);
"\a"|"\\n"|"\\b"|"\t"|"\\t"|"\b"|"\\a" printf("\n%s\tis Escape sequences",yytext);
{letter}({letter}|{digit})* printf("\n%s\tis identifier",yytext);
"&&"|"<"|">"|"<="|">="|"="|"+"|"-"|"?"|"*"|"/"|"%"|"&"|"||" printf("\n%s\toperator ",yytext);
"{"|"}"|"["|"]"|"("|")"|"#"|"'"|"."|"\""|"\\"|";"|"," printf("\n%s\t is a special character",yytext);
"%d"|"%s"|"%c"|"%f"|"%e" printf("\n%s\tis a format specifier",yytext);
%%
int yywrap()
{
return 1;
}
int main(int argc,char *argv[])
{
yyin=fopen(argv[1],"r");
yylex();
fclose(yyin);
return 0;
}
and the compiling problems I have are:
lexem.l: In function ‘yylex’:
lexem.l:4: error: ‘digit’ undeclared (first use in this function)
lexem.l:4: error: (Each undeclared identifier is reported only once
lexem.l:4: error: for each function it appears in.)

lexem.l:11: error: expected ‘;’ before ‘printf’
lexem.l:12: error: expected expression before ‘%’ token
lexem.l:23: error: stray ‘#’ in program
note that I am compiling using the "gcc -lfl lex.yy.c" command line, and thats where all the problems appear.
