//! # Circuit Parameters Module
//!
//! This module defines the types used to represent parameters within a circuit and its operations.
//! It bridges the gap between high-level symbolic expressions ([`Parameter`]) and low-level
//! storage ([`CircuitParam`]).
//!
//! ## Two Representations
//!
//! | Type | IR layer | Parameter form | Where used |
//! |------|----------|---------------|------------|
//! | [`ParameterValue`] | Construction (pre-insertion) | Symbolic or fixed | [`ValueOperation`](super::ValueOperation), gate builders |
//! | [`CircuitParam`] | Storage (post-insertion) | Index into parameter table or fixed | [`Operation`](super::Operation), circuit internals |
//!
//! [`ParameterValue`] is the user-facing type accepted by gate convenience methods
//! (`Circuit::rx`, `Circuit::u`, etc.) and value-level IR builders. Fixed `f64`
//! values and symbolic [`Parameter`] objects are both accepted interchangeably.
//!
//! On insertion via [`Circuit::append`](super::circuit_impl::Circuit::append),
//! symbolic parameters are interned into the circuit's parameter table and
//! replaced with [`CircuitParam::Index`]. Fixed parameters are validated to be
//! finite and stored directly as [`CircuitParam::Fixed`].

use super::parameter::Parameter;

/// Represents a resolved parameter stored efficiently within a [`Circuit`](crate::circuit::Circuit).
///
/// This enum is designed for memory efficiency in the circuit's operation list.
/// Instead of storing full symbolic expressions in every operation, we either store a raw `f64`
/// (for fixed values) or an index into the circuit's centralized parameter table.
#[derive(Debug, Clone)]
pub enum CircuitParam {
    /// An index pointing to the `parameters` list in the parent [`Circuit`](crate::circuit::Circuit).
    /// This represents a symbolic or shared parameter.
    Index(u32),
    /// A concrete, fixed floating-point value.
    Fixed(f64),
}

impl PartialEq for CircuitParam {
    /// Compares the circuit-local storage form: two parameters are equal only

/// ```rust
/// use cqlib_core::circuit::circuit_param::ParameterValue;
/// use cqlib_core::circuit::Parameter;
///
/// // Create from float
/// let val1: ParameterValue = 1.5.into();
///
/// // Create from integer
/// let val2: ParameterValue = 42.into();

/// // Create from symbolic parameter
/// let param = Parameter::symbol("theta");
/// let val3: ParameterValue = param.into();
/// ```
