 An _integer literal_ has one of four forms:
 
 * A _decimal literal_ starts with a *decimal digit* and continues with any
   mixture of *decimal digits* and _underscores_.
 * A _hex literal_ starts with the character sequence `U+0030` `U+0078`
-  (`0x`) and continues as any mixture of hex digits and underscores.
+  (`0x`) and continues as any mixture (with at least one digit) of hex digits

 * An _octal literal_ starts with the character sequence `U+0030` `U+006F`
-  (`0o`) and continues as any mixture of octal digits and underscores.
+  (`0o`) and continues as any mixture (with at least one digit) of octal digits

 * A _binary literal_ starts with the character sequence `U+0030` `U+0062`

 Like any literal, an integer literal may be followed (immediately,
 without any spaces) by an _integer suffix_, which forcibly sets the

 Note that the Rust syntax considers `-1i8` as an application of the [unary minus
 operator] to an integer literal `1i8`, rather than
 a single integer literal.
