meta-language 0.47.0

//! State-merging regular inference for labelled symbol examples.
//!
//! The implementation follows the classic PTA/APTA plus red-blue state-merging
//! shape used by RPNI, EDSM, and ALERGIA. It is a clean-room Rust
//! implementation derived from the public issue specification and the cited
//! papers/permissive references named there; no GPL or LGPL implementation is
//! linked, vendored, or consulted by this crate.
