# lower
lowers expressions to their "desugared" form.
e.g
`a * b + c` => `(a.mul(b)).add(c)`
note that it is _extremely pervasive_, so
```rust
lower::math! { fn main() -> u8 {
const X: u8 = 31 * 2;
return 2 * X + 2;
} }
```
expands to
```rust
fn main() -> u8 {
const X: u8 = 31.mul(2);
return (2.mul(X)).add(2);
}
```
it should work for most expressions.
also implements some modules that let it work with some core intrinsics (`f*_fast`, `f*_algebraic`). (nightly only!)
and also for `saturating` math and `wrapping` math.
## why
rust added an amazing feature called algebraic math (thanks orlp), allowing us to use `f*_algebraic`. however, dont you hate it when your
```rs
fn madd<const N: usize>(x: [[f32; 3]; N]) -> [f32; N] {
x.map(|[a, b, c]| a * b + c) // not optimized! cant use `(v)fmadd`
}
```
turns into
```rs
fn madd<const N: usize>(x: [[f32; 3]; N]) -> [f32; N] {
x.map(|[a, b, c]| core::intrinsics::fadd_algebraic(core::intrinsics::fmul_algebraic(a, b), c)) // readability in shambles
}
```
this crate allows you to
```rs
fn madd<const N: usize>(x: [[f32; 3]; N]) -> [f32; N] {
// wow! such readability! ultimate simd!
lower::algebraic! { x.map(|[a, b, c]| a * b + c) }
}
```
this is also great for wrapping/saturating math.
