Enum EvidenceClass 

pub enum EvidenceClass {
    Direct = 4,
    Inferred = 3,
    Reported = 2,
    Conjecture = 1,
}

Classification of how a piece of evidence was obtained.

Ordered from strongest (Direct) to weakest (Conjecture). The ordering intentionally mirrors epistemic certainty so that min()/max() on collections of classes yield the weakest/strongest respectively.

Variants

Direct = 4

First-hand observation or authoritative API response.

Inferred = 3

Logically derived from direct evidence.

Reported = 2

Second-hand information from a named source.

Conjecture = 1

Speculative or hypothetical — must include reasoning.

Implementations

impl EvidenceClass

pub fn strength(&self) -> u8

Numeric strength ranking (4 = strongest).

pub fn confidence_floor(&self) -> f64

Minimum confidence a claim of this class should carry.

pub fn weight(&self) -> f64

Weight multiplier used in aggregate scoring.

Trait Implementations

impl Clone for EvidenceClass

fn clone(&self) -> EvidenceClass

Returns a duplicate of the value.

fn clone_from(&mut self, source: &Self)

Performs copy-assignment from source.

impl Debug for EvidenceClass

fn fmt(&self, f: &mut Formatter<'_>) -> Result

Formats the value using the given formatter.

impl<'de> Deserialize<'de> for EvidenceClass

fn deserialize<__D>(__deserializer: __D) -> Result<Self, __D::Error>

where __D: Deserializer<'de>,

Deserialize this value from the given Serde deserializer.

impl Display for EvidenceClass

fn fmt(&self, f: &mut Formatter<'_>) -> Result

Formats the value using the given formatter.

impl Hash for EvidenceClass

fn hash<__H: Hasher>(&self, state: &mut __H)

Feeds this value into the given Hasher.

fn hash_slice<H>(data: &[Self], state: &mut H)

where H: Hasher, Self: Sized,

Feeds a slice of this type into the given Hasher.

impl Ord for EvidenceClass

fn cmp(&self, other: &EvidenceClass) -> Ordering

This method returns an Ordering between self and other.

fn max(self, other: Self) -> Self

where Self: Sized,

Compares and returns the maximum of two values.

fn min(self, other: Self) -> Self

where Self: Sized,

Compares and returns the minimum of two values.

fn clamp(self, min: Self, max: Self) -> Self

where Self: Sized,

Restrict a value to a certain interval.

impl PartialEq for EvidenceClass

fn eq(&self, other: &EvidenceClass) -> bool

Tests for self and other values to be equal, and is used by ==.

fn ne(&self, other: &Rhs) -> bool

Tests for !=. The default implementation is almost always sufficient, and should not be overridden without very good reason.

impl PartialOrd for EvidenceClass

fn partial_cmp(&self, other: &EvidenceClass) -> Option<Ordering>

This method returns an ordering between self and other values if one exists.

fn lt(&self, other: &Rhs) -> bool

Tests less than (for self and other) and is used by the < operator.

fn le(&self, other: &Rhs) -> bool

Tests less than or equal to (for self and other) and is used by the <= operator.

fn gt(&self, other: &Rhs) -> bool

Tests greater than (for self and other) and is used by the > operator.

fn ge(&self, other: &Rhs) -> bool

Tests greater than or equal to (for self and other) and is used by the >= operator.

impl Serialize for EvidenceClass

fn serialize<__S>(&self, __serializer: __S) -> Result<__S::Ok, __S::Error>

where __S: Serializer,

Serialize this value into the given Serde serializer.

impl Copy for EvidenceClass

impl Eq for EvidenceClass
