## ## Performance Notes
|
|
##
|
|
## In some languages, `&&` and `||` are special-cased in the compiler to skip
|
|
## evaluating the expression after the operator under certain circumstances.
|
|
## For example, in some languages, `enablePets && likesDogs user` would compile
|
|
## to the equivalent of:
|
|
##
|
|
## if enablePets then
|
|
## likesDogs user
|
|
## else
|
|
## False
|
|
##
|
|
## In Roc, however, `&&` and `||` are not special. They work the same way as
|
|
## other functions. Conditionals like `if` and `when` have a performance cost,
|
|
## and sometimes calling a function like `likesDogs user` can be faster across
|
|
## the board than doing an `if` to decide whether to skip calling it.
|
|
##
|
|
## (Naturally, if you expect the `if` to improve performance, you can always add
|
|
## one explicitly!)
|
|
and : Bool, Bool -> Bool
|
|
|
|
|
|
## Returns #True when given #True for either argument, and #False only when given #False and #False.
|
|
##
|
|
## `a || b` is shorthand for `Bool.or a b`.

## >>> True || True

|
## Returns #True if the two values are *structurally equal*, and #False otherwise.
|
|
##
|
|
## `a == b` is shorthand for `Bool.isEq a b`
|
|
##
|
|
## Structural equality works as follows:
|
|
##
|
|
## 1. #Int and #Float values are equal if their numbers are equal.
|
|
## 2. Records are equal if all their fields are equal.
|
|
## 3. Global tags are equal if they are the same tag, and also their contents (if any) are equal.
|
|
## 4. Private tags are equal if they are the same tag, in the same module, and also their contents (if any) are equal.
|
|
## 5. Collections (#String, #List, #Map, #Set, and #Bytes) are equal if they are the same length, and also all their corresponding elements are equal.
|
|
##
|
|
## Note that `isEq` takes `'val` instead of `val`, which means `isEq` does not
|
|
## accept arguments whose types contain functions.
|
|
# TODO: removed `'` from signature because parser does not support it yet
|
|
# Original signature: `isEq : 'val, 'val -> Bool`
|
|
isEq : val, val -> Bool
|
|
|
|
## Calls #eq on the given values, then calls #not on the result.
|
|
##
|
|
## `a != b` is shorthand for `Bool.isNotEq a b`
|
|
##
|
|
## Note that `isNotEq` takes `'val` instead of `val`, which means `isNotEq` does not
|
|
## accept arguments whose types contain functions.
