Module Base.Sign_or_nan

An extension to Sign with a Nan constructor, for representing the sign of float-like numeric values.

type t =
  1. | Neg
  2. | Zero
  3. | Pos
  4. | Nan
val all : t list
val t_sexp_grammar : t Sexplib0.Sexp_grammar.t

This provides to_string/of_string, sexp conversion, Map, Hashtbl, etc.

val (>=) : t -> t -> bool
val (<=) : t -> t -> bool
val (=) : t -> t -> bool
val (>) : t -> t -> bool
val (<) : t -> t -> bool
val (<>) : t -> t -> bool
val equal : t -> t -> bool
val compare : t -> t -> int

compare t1 t2 returns 0 if t1 is equal to t2, a negative integer if t1 is less than t2, and a positive integer if t1 is greater than t2.

val min : t -> t -> t
val max : t -> t -> t
val ascending : t -> t -> int

ascending is identical to compare. descending x y = ascending y x. These are intended to be mnemonic when used like List.sort ~compare:ascending and List.sort ~cmp:descending, since they cause the list to be sorted in ascending or descending order, respectively.

val descending : t -> t -> int
val between : t -> low:t -> high:t -> bool

between t ~low ~high means low <= t <= high

val clamp_exn : t -> min:t -> max:t -> t

clamp_exn t ~min ~max returns t', the closest value to t such that between t' ~low:min ~high:max is true.

Raises if not (min <= max).

val clamp : t -> min:t -> max:t -> t Or_error.t

type comparator_witness
include Pretty_printer.S with type t := t
val pp : Formatter.t -> t -> unit
val hashable : t Hashable.t
val to_string_hum : t -> string

Returns the human-readable strings "positive", "negative", "zero", "not-a-number".

val of_int : int -> t
val to_int_exn : t -> int

Map Neg/Zero/Pos to -1/0/1 respectively. Nan raises.

val of_sign : Sign.t -> t
val to_sign_exn : t -> Sign.t

Nan raises.

val flip : t -> t

Map Neg/Zero/Pos/Nan to Pos/Zero/Neg/Nan respectively.

val (*) : t -> t -> t

Neg * Neg = Pos, etc. If either argument is Nan then the result is Nan.
