A little bit of effort enables us to propagate valid typing annotations, making
subsequent typing re-inference easier (and avoiding a traversal just to remove
type annotations)
since it doesn't correctly propagate and update types. (Ideally it would, but
otherwise it would be better to remove the type annotations on the fly instead
of introducing wrong ones then cleaning them up).
The primary use-case for this was to be able to run computations on a list of
structures, then return an updated list with some fields in the structures
modified : that is what we need for distribution of tax amounts among household
members, for example.
This patch has a few components:
- Addition of a test as an example for tax distributions
- Added a transformation, performed during desugaring, that -- where lists are
syntactically expected, i.e. after the `among` keyword -- turns a (syntactic)
tuple of lists into a list of tuples ("zipping" the lists)
- Arg-extremum transformation was also fixed to use an intermediate list instead
of computing the predicate twice
- For convenience, allow to bind multiple variables in most* list
operations (previously only `let in` and functions allowed it)
- Fixed the printer for tuples to differentiate them from lists
*Note: tuples are not yet allowed on the left-hand side of filters and
arg-extremums for annoying syntax conflict reasons.
Always generate the version through git when possible, and encode that within
the binaries so that `catala --version` does'nt give misleading information.
Previously we used dune's builtin functionality, but that resorts to a hack at
install time which is unpleasant and doesn't work with our use of `opam
install`.
The cost is a re-linking of catala_utils and the binaries upon git commit, which
is hardly noticeable.
See related patch in french_law: running `npm install` would bring in the whole
bs platform, including the recompilation of a full OCaml compiler which takes
>30min on our small runners. In fact for the purpose here, it's not needed so
restrict to just the smallest js requirements.
With the new EAppOp node, the typing of operator application has changed and this causes some problems
with the example in test_scope/good/nothing.catala_en when retyping the LCalc to go to Scalc. This
commit changes the weird thing that for generating Scalc, the "typed" parameter was set to "untyped".
