vitaminc_normalize/
scalar.rs

1//! One normalized equality term per scalar.
2//!
3//! [`normalize`] turns a physical value and its optional logical type into
4//! the bytes an equality index derives under, and the frozen domain label
5//! those bytes belong to. The encoders are public, one per kind, so an index
6//! layer that already knows a value's kind can call them directly.
7//!
8//! Every integer width shares one 17-byte encoding and domain, and both
9//! float widths share one 8-byte encoding and domain, so equal numbers
10//! match whichever width wrote them. Text is Unicode 16 NFC. These bytes
11//! and their [`domain`] labels are protocol data: changing either requires
12//! a new domain. Text processing is variable-time; this module makes no
13//! constant-time claim for Unicode normalization.
14//!
15//! Logical types opt in. A date, a timestamp, a decimal and a uuid each
16//! have a domain of their own, separate from the physical value they are
17//! stored as, so a date's day count never matches the integer it equals and
18//! a uuid never matches the same sixteen bytes written as bytes. Every other
19//! logical type, [`Logical::Unknown`] included, has no term and is refused
20//! with [`NormalizeError::NoDomain`].

212/// value = ±significand × 10^(leading_exp − digits(significand) + 1)

216/// `leading_exp` is the decimal exponent of the leading significant digit,
217/// in `[-28, 28]`. The 14 bytes are:
218///
219/// ```text
220/// byte 0       : [sign:1][biased_exp:7]
221/// bytes 1..=13 : padded_significand (104 bits, big-endian)
222/// ```
223///
224/// - The sign bit is `1` for positive and zero, `0` for negative, so every
225///   negative sorts below zero and zero below every positive.
226/// - The biased exponent is `leading_exp + 64`, in `[36, 92]` for a
227///   non-zero value. Zero uses `0`, which no non-zero value reaches.
228/// - The padded significand is the significand left-justified to 29
229///   digits by appending zeros, so values at one exponent compare
230///   byte-wise however many digits they have. A 96-bit mantissa has at
231///   most 29 digits, so the padded value fits 104 bits.
232///
233/// For a negative, the exponent bits and the significand are inverted, so
234/// a larger magnitude sorts lower. `1`, `1.0` and `1.00` reduce to the
235/// same significand and exponent, and `+0` and `-0` to the same zero, so
236/// equal values are equal bytes, as `rust_decimal` compares them.
