Module `BatNumber`

A common interface for numbers.

author Gabriel Scherer

author David Teller

exception Overflow

Arithmetic overflow.

This kind of exception is raised by "safe" numeric modules whenever the number which should be returned is too large to be represented.

Non-"safe" numeric modules will return a result which depends on the internal representation. For instance, with module Int, max_num + 1 returns min_num. By opposition, with module Safe_int, max_num + 1 raises Overflow.

exception NaN

Not a Number

This kind of exception is raised by "safe" modules whenever the number which should be returned is not a number.

For instance, with module Safe_float, 0.0 / 0.0 raises NaN. By opposition, with module Float, 0.0 / 0.0 does not interrupt computation and returns a special value nan.

}

The smallest set of operations supported by every set of numbers.

This is presented as record to permit lightweight typeclass-style computation.

module type Infix = sig ... end

The infix operators available with any type of numbers

module type Compare = sig ... end

And if you are ready to drop generic comparison operators, then you can open this one as well

module type RefOps = sig ... end

Reference operators ala C. Mutates a reference value. x -= y is the same as x := !x - y.

module type Numeric = sig ... end

The full set of operations of a type of numbers

module type Bounded = sig ... end

module type Discrete = sig ... end
