The Hyperbolic Functions are trivially implemented in terms of `exp`, so it's simpler to group them the Exponential trait. In the future these would have default implementations.
This is a temporary trait until we have default methods. We don't want to encumber all implementors of Ord by requiring them to implement these functions, but at the same time we want to be able to take advantage of the speed of the specific numeric functions (like the `fmin` and `fmax` intrinsics).
Having three traits for primitive ints/uints seemed rather excessive. If users wish to specify between them they can simply combine Int with either the Signed and Unsigned traits. For example: fn foo<T: Int + Signed>() { … }
'Natural' normally means 'positive integer' in mathematics. It is therefore strange to implement it on signed integer types. 'Integer' is probably a better choice.
This adds the following methods to ints and uints:
- div
- modulo
- div_mod
- quot_rem
- gcd
- lcm
- divisible_by
- is_even
- is_odd
I have not implemented Natural for BigInt and BigUInt because they're a little over my head.
This restores the trait that was lost in 216e85fadf. It will eventually be broken up into a more fine-grained trait hierarchy in the future once a design can be agreed upon.
This allows `TreeMap`/`TreeSet` to fully express their requirements and reduces the comparisons from ~1.5 per level to 1 which really helps for string keys.
I also added `ReverseIter` to the prelude exports because I forgot when I originally added it.
"Dual impls" are impls that are both type implementations and trait
implementations. They can lead to ambiguity and so this patch removes them
from the language.
This also enforces coherence rules. Without this patch, records can implement
traits not defined in the current crate. This patch fixes this, and updates
all of rustc to adhere to the new enforcement. Most of this patch is fixing
rustc to obey the coherence rules, which involves converting a bunch of records
to structs.
