It is simply defined as `f64` across every platform right now.
A use case hasn't been presented for a `float` type defined as the
highest precision floating point type implemented in hardware on the
platform. Performance-wise, using the smallest precision correct for the
use case greatly saves on cache space and allows for fitting more
numbers into SSE/AVX registers.
If there was a use case, this could be implemented as simply a type
alias or a struct thanks to `#[cfg(...)]`.
Closes#6592

Also, documentation & general clean-up:
- remove `gen_char_from`: better served by `sample` or `choose`.
- `gen_bytes` generalised to `gen_vec`.
- `gen_int_range`/`gen_uint_range` merged into `gen_integer_range` and
made to be properly uniformly distributed. Fixes#8644.
Minor adjustments to other functions.
This large commit implements and `html` output option for rustdoc_ng. The
executable has been altered to be invoked as "rustdoc_ng html <crate>" and
it will dump everything into the local "doc" directory. JSON can still be
generated by changing 'html' to 'json'.
This also fixes a number of bugs in rustdoc_ng relating to comment stripping,
along with some other various issues that I found along the way.
The `make doc` command has been altered to generate the new documentation into
the `doc/ng/$(CRATE)` directories.
This is for consistency in naming conventions.
- ``std::num::Float::NaN()`` is changed to ``nan()``;
- ``std::num::Float.is_NaN()`` is changed to ``is_nan()``; and
- ``std::num::strconv::NumStrConv::NaN()`` is changed to ``nan()``.
Fixes#9319.
This is my first contribution, so please point out anything that I may have missed.
I consulted IRC and settled on `match () { ... }` for most of the replacements.
Like issue #9209, remove float::{from_str, from_str_radix} in favor of
the two corresponding traits. The same for modules f64 and f32.
New usage is
from_str::<float>("1.2e34")
Remove these in favor of the two traits themselves and the wrapper
function std::from_str::from_str.
Add the function std::num::from_str_radix in the corresponding role for
the FromStrRadix trait.
Here's a fix for issue #7588, "Overflow handling of from_str methods is broken".
The integer overflow issues are taken care of by checking to see if the multiply-by-radix-and-add-next-digit process is reversible. If it overflowed, then some information is lost and the process is irreversible, in which case, None is returned.
Floats now consistently return Some(Inf) of Some(-Inf) on overflow thanks to a call to NumStrConv::inf() and NumStrConv::neg_inf() respectively when the overflow is detected (which yields a value of None in the case of ints and uints anyway).
This is my first contribution to Rust, and my first time using the language in general, so any and all feedback is appreciated.
Summary:
-removed "ne" methods in libstd and librustpkg
-made default "ne" be inlined
-made one of the "eq" methods in librustpkg follow more standard parameter naming convention
This removes the stacking of type parameters that occurs when invoking
trait methods, and fixes all places in the standard library that were
relying on it. It is somewhat awkward in places; I think we'll probably
want something like the `Foo::<for T>::new()` syntax.
Basically, generic containers should not use the default methods since a
type of elements may not guarantees total order. str could use them
since u8's Ord guarantees total order. Floating point numbers are also
broken with the default methods because of NaN. Thanks for @thestinger.
Timespec also guarantees total order AIUI. I'm unsure whether
extra::semver::Identifier does so I left it alone. Proof needed.

- Made naming schemes consistent between Option, Result and Either
- Changed Options Add implementation to work like the maybe monad (return None if any of the inputs is None)
- Removed duplicate Option::get and renamed all related functions to use the term `unwrap` instead
Change the former repetition::
for 5.times { }
to::
do 5.times { }
.times() cannot be broken with `break` or `return` anymore; for those
cases, use a numerical range loop instead.
The free-standing functions in f32, f64, i8, i16, i32, i64, u8, u16,
u32, u64, float, int, and uint are replaced with generic functions in
num instead.
If you were previously using any of those functions, just replace them
with the corresponding function with the same name in num.
Note: If you were using a function that corresponds to an operator, use
the operator instead.
Continuation of #7430.
I haven't removed the `map` method, since the replacement `v.iter().transform(f).collect::<~[SomeType]>()` is a little ridiculous at the moment.
This works with pandoc linked against highlighting-kate >= 0.5.3.8. It seems to just be a no-op with earlier versions, because I successfully ran this through `try`.
This also fixes some consistency issues (like making `Example`/`Examples` always a header and always using three tildes).
There were several old `#[doc(hidden)]` attributes in libstd and
libextra, left over from when rustdoc didn't hide private
definitions, tagged with `FIXME #3538`.
Since #3538 is now closed, I removed the `#[doc(hidden)]` attributes
as well as the FIXMEs, but I left `#[doc(hidden)]` in
libstd/task/spawn.rs and libstd/task/rt.rs since those two are
apparently `pub`, as well as in libextra/std.rc since std/extra is
`pub`.
`std::ratio` module contains `BigRational` type, but the type is not usable by following reasons.
* `Ratio::new` requires `T: Copy + Num + Ord`, but `BigInt` is not implicitly copyable, because it contains unique vector.
* `BigInt` is not implements `Num`
So, I rewrite `Ratio` as follows.
* `Ratio` requires `T: Clone + Integer + Ord`.
* `Copy` -> `Clone`: to be able to use `BigRational`
* `Num` -> `Integer`: It is incorrect that a rational number constructed by two non-integer numbers.
* `BigInt` implements `Num` and `Orderable` which are required by `Integer` bound
fail!() used to require owned strings but can handle static strings
now. Also, it can pass its arguments to fmt!() on its own, no need for
the caller to call fmt!() itself.
`std::bigint` contains the following code.
```rust
borrow = *elem << (uint::bits - n_bits);
```
The code above contains a bug that the value of the right operand of the shift operator exceeds the size of the left operand,
because sizeof(*elem) == 32, and 0 <= n_bits < 32 in 64bit architecture.
If `--opt-level` option is not given to rustc, the code above runs as if the right operand is `(uint::bits - n_bits) % 32`,
but if --opt-level is given, `borrow` is always zero.
I wonder why this bug is not catched in the libstd's testsuite (I try the `rustc --test --opt-level=2 bigint.rs` before fixing the bug,
but the unittest passes normally.)
This pull request also removes the implicit vector copies in `bigint.rs`.

Closes#3083.
This takes a similar approach to #5797 where a set is present on the `tcx` of used mutable definitions. Everything is by default warned about, and analyses must explicitly add mutable definitions to this set so they're not warned about.
Most of this was pretty straightforward, although there was one caveat that I ran into when implementing it. Apparently when the old modes are used (or maybe `legacy_modes`, I'm not sure) some different code paths are taken to cause spurious warnings to be issued which shouldn't be issued. I'm not really sure how modes even worked, so I was having a lot of trouble tracking this down. I figured that because they're a legacy thing that I'd just de-mode the compiler so that the warnings wouldn't be a problem anymore (or at least for the compiler).
Other than that, the entire compiler compiles without warnings of unused mutable variables. To prevent bad warnings, #5965 should be landed (which in turn is waiting on #5963) before landing this. I figured I'd stick it out for review anyway though.
