There's arguably no use case ever for that in the context of on-chain
Plutus. Strings are really just meant to be used for tracing. They
aren't meant to be manipulated as heavily as in classic programming
languages.
Before that commit, the type-checker would allow unsafe list patterns
such as:
```
let [x] = xs
when xs is {
[x] -> ...
[x, ..] -> ...
}
```
This is quite unsafe and can lead to confusing situations. Now at
least the compiler warns about this. It isn't perfect though,
especially in the presence of clause guards. But that's a start.
Whoopsie... || and && were treated with the same precedence, causing very surprising behavior down the line.
I noticed this because of the auto-formatter adding parenthesis where it really shouldn't. The problem came actually from the parser and how it constructed the AST.
fix conversion from inner opaque type for when and assignment
This fixes Clause being used in cases where ListClause or TupleClause should be used
Reset defined and zero arg functions between each code gen
Fixes for optimizations when encountering shadowed variables
* fix assert on pattern Var
* fix tuple index unwrapping closes#334
* allow wrapping when casting with let
* allow wrapping when casting via function call
I decided to invert how I'm doing it. I'm passing
in a new argument to unify in environment called
allow_cast: bool and essentially at various
unification sites I can control whether or not I
want to allow casting to even occur. So we can
assume it's false by default always and then we
turn it on in a few places vs. just opening the
flood gates and locking it down at various sites

Weirdly enough, we got the parsing wrong for byte literals in expressions (but did okay in constants). But got the formatting wrong in constants (yet did okay for formatting expressions). I've factored out the code in both cases to avoid the duplication that led to this in the first place. Plus added test coverage to make sure this doesn't happen in the future.
In an ideal world, I should have handlded that directly at the conflicting commit in the rebase, but this would have bubbled up through all commits... which I wasn't really quite keen on going through. So here's an extra ugly commit that comes and 'fix the rebase'.
This is quite something, because now we have a testing pipeline that
can also be used for testing other compiler-related stuff such as the
type-checker or the code generator.
The blueprint is generated at the root of the repository and is
intended to be versioned with the rest. It acts as a business card
that contains many practical information. There's a variety of tools
we can then build on top of open-source contracts. And, quite
importantly, the blueprint is language-agnostic; it isn't specific to
Aiken. So it is really meant as an interop format within the
ecosystem.
With pretty parse errors on failures. The type-checker was already
implemented for those, so it now only requires some work in the code
generation.
Fixes#297.
This is a bit annoying as we are forced to use #[related] here which isn't quite what we want.
Ideally, this would use #[diagnostic_source] but, there's a bug upstream. See: zkat/miette#172.
In the similar spirit to what we did for sequences. Yet, we need to handle the case of body being just an assignment -- or a trace of an assignment which is basically the same thing.
Far less verbose than defining classes by hand, plus, it allows to have everything about a single error be co-located. And finally, it allows to use 'related', 'label' and so on more easily.
While Gleam originally allowed various kinds of expressions to be discarded in a sequence, we simply do not allow expressions to be discarded implicitly. So any non-final expression in a sequence must be a let-binding. This prevents silly mistakes.
- Display function's signature next to the function name
(instead of being repeated below the function documentation).
- Same for module constants
- Display record constructors in a more concise manner, with
constructors fields next to constructors.
- Display generic parameters, if any, next to the type
- Plus some minor color and icon rework.
Somehow missed it when reworking tuples. We need to allow the new
'NewLineLeftParen' token in this situation as well. Especially because
this is what the formatter outputs.
Due to how PlutusData works it doesn't make sense
to allow user defined types to contain
functions.
```
type Foo {
bar: fn(Int) -> Int
}
```
The above definition will now return an error.
This possibly breaks many Aiken programs out there, but it's for the
best. We haven't released the alpha yet so we still have a bit of
freedom when it comes to breaking change.
Plus, the migration path is easy, simply run:
```
find . -name "*.ak" | xargs sed -i "s/#(/(/g"
```
(or `-i ''` on MacOS).
This changes allow to use parenthesis `(` `)` to encapsulate
expressions in addition to braces `{` `}` used to define blocks.
The main use-case is for arithmetic and boolean expressions for which
developers are used to using parenthesis. For example:
```
{ 14 + 42 } * 1337
```
can now be written as:
```
( 14 + 42 ) * 1337
```
This may sound straightforward at first but wasn't necessarily trivial
in Aiken given that (a) everything is an expression, (b) whitespaces
do not generally matter and (c) there's no symbol indicating the end
of a 'statement' (because there's no statement).
Thus, we have to properly disambiguate between:
```
let foo = bar(14 + 42)
```
and
```
let foo = bar
(14 + 42)
```
Before this commit, the latter would be interpreted as a function call
and would lead to a somewhat puzzling error. Now, the newline serves
as a delimiting symbol. The trade-off being that for a function call,
the left parenthesis has to be on the same line as the function name
identifier -- which is a fair trade off. So this is still allowed:
```
let foo = bar(
14 + 42
)
```
As there's very little ambiguity about it.
This fixes#236 and would seemingly allow us to get rid of the leading
`#` in front of tuples.
* add unary op
* parse, typecheck, and code gen it
* express boolean not as unary op as well, previously called negate

Data-type constructors are not automatically imported, even if their type is
imported. So, if a module `aiken/pet` defines the following type:
┍━ aiken/pet.ak ━━━━━━━━
│ pub type Pet {
│ Cat
│ Dog
│ }
You must import its constructors explicitly to use them, or prefix them
with the module's name.
┍━ foo.ak ━━━━━━━━
│ use aiken/pet.{Pet, Dog}
│
│ fn foo(pet : Pet) {
│ when pet is {
│ pet.Cat -> // ...
│ Dog -> // ...
│ }
│ }
```
