//! # echidna
//!
//! A high-performance automatic differentiation (AD) library for Rust.
//!
//! echidna provides forward-mode, reverse-mode, bytecode-graph-mode, and Taylor-mode
//! automatic differentiation. Write standard Rust numeric code and get exact derivatives
//! automatically -- no symbolic rewriting, no numerical finite differences.
//!
//! # Examples
//!
//! Compute the gradient of f(x, y) = x^2 + y^2:
//!
//! ```
//! let g = echidna::grad(|x: &[echidna::Reverse<f64>]| {
//!     x[0] * x[0] + x[1] * x[1]
//! }, &[3.0, 4.0]);
//! assert!((g[0] - 6.0).abs() < 1e-10);
//! assert!((g[1] - 8.0).abs() < 1e-10);
//! ```
//!
//! Forward-mode with `Dual<f64>`:
//!
//! ```
//! use echidna::{Dual, Float};
//!
//! let x = Dual::new(2.0_f64, 1.0); // seed derivative = 1
//! let y = x.sin() + x * x;
//! assert!((y.eps - (2.0_f64.cos() + 4.0)).abs() < 1e-10);
//! ```
//!
//! # AD Modes
//!
//! | Mode | Type | Best for | Description |
//! |------|------|----------|-------------|
//! | Forward | [`Dual<F>`] | Few inputs, many outputs | Propagates tangent vectors (JVP) |
//! | Reverse | [`Reverse<F>`] | Many inputs, few outputs | Adept-style two-stack tape, `Copy`, 12 bytes for f64 |
//! | Bytecode tape | [`BytecodeTape`] + [`BReverse<F>`] | Record-once evaluate-many | Graph mode enabling Hessians, sparse derivatives, GPU acceleration, checkpointing. Requires `bytecode` feature. |
//! | Taylor | [`Taylor<F, K>`] | Higher-order derivatives | Univariate Taylor propagation. Requires `taylor` feature. |
//! | Batched forward | [`DualVec<F, N>`] | Vectorised Jacobians/Hessians | N tangent directions simultaneously |
//!
//! # Feature Flags
//!
//! | Feature | Default | Description |

//! | `bytecode` | no | [`BytecodeTape`] graph-mode AD |

//! # Core Types
//!
//! **Always available:**
//! - [`Dual<F>`] -- forward-mode dual number
//! - [`Reverse<F>`] -- reverse-mode AD variable
//! - [`DualVec<F, N>`] -- batched forward-mode (N tangent directions)
//! - [`Scalar`] -- trait for writing AD-generic code
//! - [`Float`] -- trait for underlying floating-point types
//! - Type aliases: [`Dual64`], [`Dual32`], [`DualVec64`], [`DualVec32`],
//!   [`Reverse64`], [`Reverse32`]
//!
//! **With `bytecode`:**
//! - [`BytecodeTape`] -- recorded computation graph
//! - [`BReverse<F>`] -- reverse-mode variable for bytecode evaluation
//! - [`CustomOp`] / [`CustomOpHandle`] -- user-defined tape operations
//! - Type aliases: [`BReverse64`], [`BReverse32`]
//!
//! **With `taylor`:**
//! - [`Taylor<F, K>`] -- fixed-order Taylor coefficients
//! - [`TaylorDyn<F>`] -- dynamic-order Taylor coefficients
//! - Type aliases: [`Taylor64`], [`Taylor32`], [`TaylorDyn64`], [`TaylorDyn32`]
//!
//! **With `laurent`:**
//! - [`Laurent<F, K>`] -- Laurent series with negative-order terms
//!
//! # Getting Started
//!
//! - **Gradients**: use [`grad()`] -- it manages the reverse-mode tape automatically.
//! - **Jacobians**: use [`jacobian()`] (forward mode) or [`sparse_jacobian()`]
//!   (sparse, requires `bytecode`).
//! - **Hessians**: use [`hessian()`] or [`sparse_hessian()`] (requires `bytecode`).
//! - **AD-generic code**: write functions as `fn foo<T: Scalar>(x: T) -> T` and they
//!   work with any AD type.
//! - **Tape reuse (performance)**: use [`record()`] to build a [`BytecodeTape`], then
//!   call methods on it for repeated evaluation (requires `bytecode`).

/// Compile-time assertion that a type is `Send + Sync + 'static`.
///
/// Use on error types so that a future variant carrying a non-`Send` /
/// non-`Sync` / non-`'static` payload produces a build-time failure at
/// the type definition rather than at the (often distant) call site
/// where the error type meets an `async` boundary or a threadpool.
///
/// # Example
///
/// ```
/// # use echidna::assert_send_sync;
/// pub enum MyError { Bad, Other }
/// assert_send_sync!(MyError);
/// ```
#[macro_export]
macro_rules! assert_send_sync {
    ($t:ty) => {
        const _: fn() = || {
            fn assert_send_sync<T: Send + Sync + 'static>() {}
            assert_send_sync::<$t>();
        };
    };
