Module Packed_float_option.Without_infix

Packed_float_option.t is the moral equivalent of float option represented under the hood as a regular float where Packed_float_option.is_none = Float.is_nan.

This type is often used whenever we have code dealing with floating point numbers in code and we want to avoid allocating on the OCaml heap.

val bin_write_t : t Bin_prot.Write.writer
val bin_read_t : t Bin_prot.Read.reader
val __bin_read_t__ : t Bin_prot.Read.vtag_reader

This function only needs implementation if t exposed to be a polymorphic variant. Despite what the type reads, this does *not* produce a function after reading; instead it takes the constructor tag (int) before reading and reads the rest of the variant t afterwards.

This interface includes hash. However, the evaluation of hash t requires a comparison, and also it allocates, so this should not be used in highly performance-sensitive applications.

Orders none before anything else

Unlike polymorphic compare, none=none.

val of_float_nan_as_none : float -> t @@ portable

In some applications, float arthimetic is done where nan is used to denote an invalid value. This function can be used to interpret such results as a t with no overhead (internally, both this and unchecked_value are just the identity).

val to_float_none_as_nan : t -> float @@ portable
val abs : t -> t @@ portable

The result of arithmetic operations will be none if the operand is. In addition, if the float operation would give nan, the result is none.

The result of is_inf will be: true: if operand is some inf or some -inf; false: otherwise, including when operand is none

first_some x y returns x if x is not none, else returns y

val merge : t -> t -> f:(float -> float -> float) -> t @@ portable

merge x y ~f merges together the values from x and y using f. If both x and y are None, returns none. If only one is Some, returns that one, and if both are Some, returns the result of applying f to the contents of x and y.

Computes numerator / denominator when denominator is nonzero, otherwise returns else_. This is done without allocating or branching by unboxing the arguments and then using Unboxed.select.

module Infix : sig ... end

The result of arithmetic operations will be none if either operand is. In addition, if the float operation would give nan, the result is none.

module Ieee_nan : sig ... end

Operations where we use NaN semantics even though they are inconsistent with the remaining operators, e.g., >= violates the equivalance a >= b <-> a > b || a = b because it returns false for two none inputs.

module Local : sig ... end
module Stable : sig ... end
module Unboxed : sig ... end

A variant of the above type using unboxed floats. The operations are largely the same (but we can't currently share the module type across layouts.)
