sui-eval 0.1.205

Clean-room Nix language evaluator — lazy tree-walker + bytecode VM with construction-guaranteed Lazy<T>
Documentation
//! Construction-guarantee gate tests.
//!
//! These tests PROVE software qualities through the type system and
//! runtime verification. Each test encodes an invariant that must hold
//! for ALL inputs, not just specific cases.
//!
//! Categories:
//! - Laziness: values not computed until demanded
//! - Memoization: values computed at most once
//! - Correctness: fixpoints, recursion, scope
//! - Performance: overlay chain O(depth), not O(keys)

/// Helper: evaluate a Nix expression string, return the Value.

}

/// Helper: evaluate and demand a concrete value.
fn eval_concrete(expr: &str) -> Result<sui_eval::value::Concrete, sui_eval::value::EvalError> {
    eval(expr)?.demand()
