This crates brings likely and unlikely branch prediction hints to stable rust

use likely_stable::{likely,unlikely};
use rand::random;

if likely(random::<i32>() > 10) {
    println!("likely!")
} else {
    println!("unlikely!")
}

It also provides [macro@if_likely] and [macro@if_unlikely] for branch prediction for if let statements.

use likely_stable::if_likely;
use rand::random;

let v = Some(random()).filter(|v:&i32| *v > 10);

if_likely!{let Some(v) = v => {
    println!("likely!")
} else {
    println!("unlikely!")
}};

Moreover traits [LikelyBool], [LikelyOption] and [LikelyResult] provides likely and unlikely versions of the methods commonly used for types [bool], [Option] and [Result]

use likely_stable::LikelyOption;
use rand::random;

let v = Some(random()).filter(|v:&i32| *v > 10);

v.map_or_else_likely(
    || println!("unlikely"),
    |v| println!("likely {}",v));
