@ -51,16 +51,14 @@ For numeric casts, there are quite a few cases to consider:
|
|
|
|
|
* casting from a smaller integer to a larger integer (e.g. u8 -> u32) will
|
|
|
|
|
* zero-extend if the source is unsigned
|
|
|
|
|
* sign-extend if the source is signed
|
|
|
|
|
* casting from a float to an integer will round the float towards zero
|
|
|
|
|
* **[NOTE: currently this will cause Undefined Behavior if the rounded
|
|
|
|
|
value cannot be represented by the target integer type][float-int]**.
|
|
|
|
|
This includes Inf and NaN. This is a bug and will be fixed.
|
|
|
|
|
* casting from a float to an integer will round the float towards zero and
|
|
|
|
|
produces a "saturating cast" when the float is outside the integer's range
|
|
|
|
|
* floats that are too big turn into the largest possible integer
|
|
|
|
|
* floats that are too small produce the smallest possible integer
|
|
|
|
|
* NaN produces zero
|
|
|
|
|
* casting from an integer to float will produce the floating point
|
|
|
|
|
representation of the integer, rounded if necessary (rounding to
|
|
|
|
|
nearest, ties to even)
|
|
|
|
|
* casting from an f32 to an f64 is perfect and lossless
|
|
|
|
|
* casting from an f64 to an f32 will produce the closest possible value
|
|
|
|
|
(rounding to nearest, ties to even)
