assertables/assert_approx/assert_approx_eq.rs
1//! Assert a number is approximately equal to another.
2//!
3//! Pseudocode:<br>
4//! | a - b | ≤ 1e-6
5//!
6//! # Example
7//!
8//! ```rust
9//! use assertables::*;
10//!
11//! let a: f32 = 1.0000001;
12//! let b: f32 = 1.0000011;
13//! assert_approx_eq!(a, b);
14//! ```
15//!
16//!
17//! ## Comparisons
18//!
19//! This crate provides macro groups that test approximations and nearness:
20//!
21//! * [`assert_approx_eq`](macro@crate::assert_approx_eq) and
22//! [`assert_approx_ne`](macro@crate::assert_approx_ne) test the approximate
23//! equality within 1e-6. The macro name and the approximate value are chosen
24//! to be similar to the longtime popular rust crate `assert_approx_eq`.
25//!
26//! * [`assert_in_delta`](macro@crate::assert_in_delta) tests the absolute error
27//! (i.e. delta). This is the magnitude of the difference between the exact
28//! value and the approximation.
29//!
30//! * [`assert_in_epsilon`](macro@crate::assert_in_epsilon) tests the relative
31//! error (i.e. epsilon). This is the absolute error divided by the magnitude
32//! of the exact value. This can be used to compare approximations of numbers
33//! of wildly differing size.
34//!
35//! Examples:
36//!
37//! * Approximating the number 100 and 103 has an absolute error (approx) of 3
38//! and a relative error (epsilon) of 0.03.
39//!
40//! * Approximating the number 1,000,000 and 1,000,003 has an absolute error
41//! (approx) of 3, and a relative error (epsilon) of 0.000003.
42//!
43//! * For many kinds of applications, the relative error is more important than
44//! the absolute error.
45//!
46//!

239/// The macros `assert_approx_eq` and `assert_in_epsilon` can test
240/// approximations:
241///
242/// * For an approximation, the absolute error (i.e. approx) is the magnitude of
243/// the difference between the exact value and the approximation. For this,
244/// use the macro
245///
246/// * For an approximation, the relative error (i.e. epsilon) is the absolute
247/// error divided by the magnitude of the exact value. This can be used to
248/// compare approximations of numbers of wildly differing size.
249///
250/// * For example, approximating the number 1,000 with an absolute error of 3
251/// is, in most applications, much worse than approximating the number
252/// 1,000,000 with an absolute error of 3; in the first case the relative
253/// error is 0.003 and in the second it is only 0.000003.

329/// This macro provides the same statements as [`assert_approx_eq`](macro.assert_approx_eq.html),
330/// except this macro's statements are only enabled in non-optimized
331/// builds by default. An optimized build will not execute this macro's
332/// statements unless `-C debug-assertions` is passed to the compiler.
333///
334/// This macro is useful for checks that are too expensive to be present
335/// in a release build but may be helpful during development.
336///
337/// The result of expanding this macro is always type checked.
338///
339/// An unchecked assertion allows a program in an inconsistent state to
340/// keep running, which might have unexpected consequences but does not
341/// introduce unsafety as long as this only happens in safe code. The
342/// performance cost of assertions, however, is not measurable in general.
343/// Replacing `assert*!` with `debug_assert*!` is thus only encouraged
344/// after thorough profiling, and more importantly, only in safe code!
345///
346/// This macro is intended to work in a similar way to
347/// [`::std::debug_assert`](https://doc.rust-lang.org/std/macro.debug_assert.html).
