The version of `flake8` was too old to support with Python 3.12 -- there is new F-string support that caused false positives sadly. The updated version has fixes for all of these. This in turn updates codespell which has picked up several new fixes that actually fire in our code, so also fix everything. While we don't do more in-depth updates to old proposals, similar to simply fixing broken links, fixing automatically detected typos seems scalable and fine. All edits were automatically generated here.
Generics
This directory contains the collection of documents describing the generics feature of Carbon:
- Overview - A high-level description of the generics design, with pointers to other design documents that dive deeper into individual topics
- Goals - The motivation and principles guiding the design direction
- Terminology - A glossary establishing common terminology for describing the design
- Detailed design - In-depth description
- Appendix: Coherence - Describes the rationale for Carbon's choice to have coherent generics, and the alternatives.
- Appendix: Rewrite constraints - Describes the detailed rules governing rewrite constraints, and why resolving them terminates.
- Appendix: Witness tables - Describes an implementation strategy for checked generics, and Carbon's rationale for only using it for dynamic dispatch.
