constraints - Go Packages (original) (raw)

Package constraints defines a set of useful constraints to be used with type parameters.

type Complex
type Float
type Integer
type Ordered
type Signed
type Unsigned

Complex is a constraint that permits any complex numeric type. If future releases of Go add new predeclared complex numeric types, this constraint will be modified to include them.

Float is a constraint that permits any floating-point type. If future releases of Go add new predeclared floating-point types, this constraint will be modified to include them.

type Integer interface { Signed | Unsigned }

Integer is a constraint that permits any integer type. If future releases of Go add new predeclared integer types, this constraint will be modified to include them.

Ordered is a constraint that permits any ordered type: any type that supports the operators < <= >= >. If future releases of Go add new ordered types, this constraint will be modified to include them.

This type is redundant since Go 1.21 introduced cmp.Ordered.

Signed is a constraint that permits any signed integer type. If future releases of Go add new predeclared signed integer types, this constraint will be modified to include them.

Unsigned is a constraint that permits any unsigned integer type. If future releases of Go add new predeclared unsigned integer types, this constraint will be modified to include them.
