module Builtin

-- The most primitive data types; things which are used by desugaring

-- Totality assertions

||| Assert to the totality checker that the given expression will always
||| terminate.
|||
||| The multiplicity of its argument is 1, so `assert_total` won't affect how
||| many times variables are used. If you're not writing a linear function,
||| this doesn't make a difference.
|||
||| Note: assert_total can reduce at compile time, if required for unification,
||| which might mean that it's no longer guarded a subexpression. Therefore,
||| it is best to use it around the smallest possible subexpression.
%inline
public export
assert_total : (1 _ : a) -> a
assert_total x = x

||| Assert to the totality checker that y is always structurally smaller than x
||| (which is typically a pattern argument, and *must* be in normal form for
||| this to work).
|||
||| The multiplicity of x is 0, so in a linear function, you can pass values to
||| x even if they have already been used.
||| The multiplicity of y is 1, so `assert_smaller` won't affect how many times
||| its y argument is used.
||| If you're not writing a linear function, the multiplicities don't make a
||| difference.
|||
||| @ x the larger value (typically a pattern argument)
||| @ y the smaller value (typically an argument to a recursive call)
