## Summary
Support `as` patterns in reachability analysis:
```py
from typing import assert_never
def f(subject: str | int):
match subject:
case int() as x:
pass
case str():
pass
case _:
assert_never(subject) # would previously emit an error
```
Note that we still don't support inferring correct types for the bound
name (`x`).

Pattern matching
[environment]
python-version = "3.10"
With wildcard
def _(target: int):
match target:
case 1:
y = 2
case _:
y = 3
reveal_type(y) # revealed: Literal[2, 3]
Without wildcard
def _(target: int):
match target:
case 1:
y = 2
case 2:
y = 3
# revealed: Literal[2, 3]
# error: [possibly-unresolved-reference]
reveal_type(y)
Basic match
def _(target: int):
y = 1
y = 2
match target:
case 1:
y = 3
case 2:
y = 4
reveal_type(y) # revealed: Literal[2, 3, 4]
Value match
A value pattern matches based on equality: the first case branch here will be taken if subject
is equal to 2, even if subject is not an instance of int. We can't know whether C here has a
custom __eq__ implementation that might cause it to compare equal to 2, so we have to consider
the possibility that the case branch might be taken even though the type C is disjoint from the
type Literal[2].
This leads us to infer Literal[1, 3] as the type of y after the match statement, rather than
Literal[1]:
from typing import final
@final
class C:
pass
def _(subject: C):
y = 1
match subject:
case 2:
y = 3
reveal_type(y) # revealed: Literal[1, 3]
Class match
A case branch with a class pattern is taken if the subject is an instance of the given class, and
all subpatterns in the class pattern match.
Without arguments
from typing import final
class Foo:
pass
class FooSub(Foo):
pass
class Bar:
pass
@final
class Baz:
pass
def _(target: FooSub):
y = 1
match target:
case Baz():
y = 2
case Foo():
y = 3
case Bar():
y = 4
reveal_type(y) # revealed: Literal[3]
def _(target: FooSub):
y = 1
match target:
case Baz():
y = 2
case Bar():
y = 3
case Foo():
y = 4
reveal_type(y) # revealed: Literal[3, 4]
def _(target: FooSub | str):
y = 1
match target:
case Baz():
y = 2
case Foo():
y = 3
case Bar():
y = 4
reveal_type(y) # revealed: Literal[1, 3, 4]

Singleton match
Singleton patterns are matched based on identity, not equality comparisons or isinstance() checks.
from typing import Literal
def _(target: Literal[True, False]):
y = 1

def _(target: bool):

case True:
y = 2
case False:
y = 3
case None:
y = 4
reveal_type(y) # revealed: Literal[2, 3]
def _(target: None):
y = 1
match target:
case True:
y = 2
case False:
y = 3
case None:
y = 4

def _(target: None | Literal[True]):
y = 1
match target:
case True:
y = 2
case False:
y = 3
case None:

reveal_type(y) # revealed: Literal[2, 4]
# bool is an int subclass

Matching on enums
from enum import Enum
class Answer(Enum):
NO = 0

reveal_type(answer) # revealed: Literal[Answer.YES]
y = 1
case Answer.NO:
reveal_type(answer) # revealed: Literal[Answer.NO]
y = 2
reveal_type(y) # revealed: Literal[1, 2]
Or match
A | pattern matches if any of the subpatterns match.
from typing import Literal, final

as patterns

Guard with object that implements __bool__ incorrectly
class NotBoolable:
