feat: agree, a closeness test with an absolute and a proportional tolerance - #278
Conversation
…erance
`agree(absolute, proportional, lowest, highest)` is
highest - lowest <= max(absolute, proportional * max(abs(lowest), abs(highest)))
It belongs here rather than in a consumer because it cannot be composed
from the public surface. That surface reverts ExponentOverflow rather
than truncating an exponent, and both `abs` and `sub` do so on the
extremes: `abs(min-negative-value)` cannot fit the magnitude back into
an int224 with the exponent already at its maximum, and the spread from
the most negative to the most positive representable value fits no
packed value at all. A closeness test asked about representable values
should answer, not revert, so it has to work below that surface.
Doing that needed three primitives the implementation library did not
have. `eq` was the only comparison on unpacked values, so callers
staying below the public surface had to reach for `compareRescale` and
compare its results by hand:
- `abs` / `absCoefficient` — magnitude without repacking, exact because
an unpacked coefficient is an int224 widened to an int256.
- `lte` — comparison without repacking.
- `max` — the larger of two, without repacking.
On the design: both tolerances are taken and the LARGER of the two
terms is the limit. A proportional tolerance alone collapses as the
values approach zero, since the quantity it is a proportion of shrinks
with them; an absolute tolerance alone does not scale. Taking the larger
rather than the sum is the form math.isclose (PEP 485) and Julia's
isapprox use; numpy.isclose sums them, which PEP 485 rejects because two
tolerances of similar size then allow about twice the intended
difference.
The proportion is of the larger magnitude of the two extremes. Every
other value in a set lies between them, so that is the largest magnitude
in the whole set, and holding one anchor for the set is what makes a
single highest-to-lowest check equivalent to checking every pair.
`agree` is split into private helpers because one frame holding four
unpacked values and the intermediates exceeds the stack.

Slither's unused-return detector reads `return f(...)` on a tuple-returning call as an ignored return value, failing the static CI job on all three agree helpers. Each now binds the result to locals and returns those. No behaviour change; agree stays at 11 passing and slither goes from 3 results to 0. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>
The first cut of these tests carried 11 cases where the rainlang opcode has 37. Most of that gap is correct — integrity, parse errors, operand handling, the stack walk and the list-level property are all opcode concerns that do not belong here. Four things were arithmetic and should have moved: - straddling zero: the anchor is whichever end is further from zero, not simply the highest. - a zero anchor collapses the proportional term whatever its size. - the proportional term scales with the values and the absolute does not, which is the reason for taking both. And the strongest test did not move at all. Everything here was a hand-derived assertion, so a misread of the formula would have been written into both the code and its expectations with nothing to catch it. `testAgreeAgainstIntegerOracle` computes the predicate in plain int256 arithmetic sharing nothing with this library, over a domain where both paths are exact, so the two can disagree. That also gives the file its first fuzz coverage; every case before this was fixed. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>
Two things this repo's conventions expect that the first cut skipped. `abs(coefficient, exponent)` was added and never called — `agree` uses `absCoefficient`. Removed, with its rationale folded into the function that survives. `absCoefficient`, `lte` and `max` had no test files, against a clear per-function convention here that 15 existing files follow. They were reachable only through `agree`, so a defect in one would have surfaced as a confusing `agree` failure rather than where it lived. Each now has its own file covering the case that motivates it: `absCoefficient` on the most negative coefficient, where the packed form cannot produce the answer at all; `lte` and `max` on operands with different exponents, where the larger coefficient is not the larger value. The mutation probe shows the difference. `lte`'s boundary and `max` returning the smaller were previously caught only downstream in `agree`; they are now killed by the tests for the functions themselves.

The natspec argued for taking the larger of the two tolerance terms by comparing `math.isclose`, `isapprox` and `numpy.isclose` and relaying what PEP 485 says about summing. Those are other languages' libraries; they are not why this library does it, and quoting their reasoning made an appeal do work the paragraph above it already does on this library's own terms. The external implementations stay as a one-line pointer for a reader who wants prior art. The discussion comparing them is gone. Comments only. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>
`agree` needed a comparison on unpacked values, because the spread it checks may exceed what packs, and it added `lte` alone. That left the library with `lte` unpacked and `lt`/`gt`/`gte` only packed: the same question answered at different levels depending on which operator you reach for, and an open invitation to bolt on the missing three the next time something needs one. The set now lives at the unpacked level. `lt`, `gt` and `gte` join `eq` and `lte` there, plus `min` beside `max`, and the packed `lt`, `gt`, `lte` and `gte` unpack and delegate — which is how packed `eq` already worked. The four packed bodies each hand-rolled `compareRescale` and a bare operator; that logic now exists once. No behaviour change: the 72 existing packed comparison tests pass untouched. Tests for the four new unpacked functions, including the dualities that pin them to each other rather than leaving each independently plausible (`gt(a,b) == lt(b,a)`, `gte == !lt`, `lte == lt || eq`), `lt` transitivity across rescaling, and that `min`/`max` partition the pair they are given. Full suite: 53 suites, 485 tests, 0 failed. Lint, fmt and slither clean. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>

`agree` accepts a spread that an exact comparison would refuse, when the spread lands exactly on the limit and the subtraction discarded digits that would have carried it over. `agree(0, 1, -1e-100, 1)` is such a case: the real spread is 1 + 1e-100, needing 101 significant digits against the coefficient's 76, so `sub` returns exactly 1 and 1 <= 1 holds. Documented rather than changed. `sub` reports that same spread as exactly 1 when asked directly, so resolving the boundary the other way would put `agree` at odds with the library's own arithmetic, and the excess it admits is bounded by one unit in the last place of the aligned coefficient — under 1e-76 of the spread's own magnitude. Nine tests, because a documented claim with nothing asserting it rots: - The cliff is LOCATED rather than sampled. Walking the exponent gap 1..120 pins the flip at ADD_MAX_EXPONENT_DIFF + 1 and asserts the transition happens exactly once, so a scatter of accepts and refusals would fail where sampling two points could not tell the difference. - The cliff is scale invariant across seven orders of magnitude, which is what distinguishes a relative precision limit from an absolute one. - The loss is one directional: with both extremes positive the discarded term shrinks the spread, and the truncated and exact answers agree, so the imprecision cannot cause a refusal. - A refusal is always backed by `sub` reporting a spread over the limit, fuzzed across gaps straddling the cliff. - The mechanism is asserted directly, not inferred: `sub` on those operands returns exactly 1. - Inside precision the check is exactly the integer comparison, which bounds the imprecision to the cliff instead of leaving it as something that might apply anywhere. The gap constant is named once rather than cast twice. Plain `//` and not natspec, because solc rejects a doc comment on a file level constant and `-D warnings` makes that fatal. Full suite 53 suites, 494 tests. The one failure, `testSubPacked` reverting ExponentUnderflow, reproduces on main at the same fuzz seed with the same counterexample and is untouched by this change. Lint, fmt and slither clean. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>
`agree`'s natspec promises an ANSWER rather than a revert for representable values, and that promise is the whole reason the function works unpacked. Nothing asserted it. Two tests. A fuzz over arbitrary bit patterns in all four operands, tolerances included, so nothing about the packing is assumed sane; and the exact counterexample `testSubPacked` fails on, driven through `agree`. That second one is the case worth pinning. `sub` reverting `ExponentUnderflow` is a live bug in this library, but it is in the PACKED wrapper, which packs the result. `agree` never packs back, so it cannot inherit it. That now rests on a test rather than on reading the call graph, and a future change to the packing path cannot quietly make `agree` revert. Mutation coverage for the comparison set added in the previous commit: 12/12 killed against a baseline the probe proved green at 157, over every suite that exercises the changed code. The six new mutants cover `lt`, `gt`, `gte` and `min` at their equality boundaries, `min` returning the larger, and two MIS-WIRINGS of the packed delegations — packed `lt` routed to unpacked `gt`, packed `gte` routed to `lte`. The wiring mutants are the point: four packed functions now route through one unpacked set, so a mis-wire is a single token that still compiles and still looks right.

LibDecimalFloat.agree(absolute, proportional, lowest, highest):Why it belongs here rather than in a consumer
It cannot be composed from the public surface. That surface reverts
ExponentOverflowrather than truncating an exponent, and bothabsandsubdo so at the extremes:
abs(min-negative-value)cannot fit the magnitude back into an int224 withthe exponent already at its maximum.
fits no packed value at all.
Both verified by probe before writing this. A closeness test asked about
representable values should answer rather than revert, so it has to work below
that surface.
testAgreeAcrossTheWholeRangepins it, andtestAgreeNeverRevertsfuzzes arbitrary bit patterns in all four operands toassert the no-revert promise directly.
The unpacked comparison set
eqwas the only comparison on unpacked values, so anything working below thepublic surface had to reach for
compareRescaleand compare its results byhand.
agreeneeded one, and addingltealone would have left the libraryanswering the same question at different levels depending on which operator you
reached for.
So the whole set now lives unpacked in
LibDecimalFloatImplementation—lt,lte,gt,gte,min,maxbeside the existingeq— and the packedlt,gt,lteandgteunpack and delegate to it, which is how packedeqalready worked. Each of those four packed bodies previously hand-rolled
compareRescaleplus a bare operator; that logic exists once now. No behaviourchange: the 72 existing packed comparison tests pass untouched.
Also added:
absCoefficient— magnitude without repacking. Exact, because an unpackedcoefficient is an int224 widened to an int256, where the packed
abshas tofit it back into an int224 and cannot.
The design
Both tolerances, and the LARGER of the two terms is the limit. A
proportional tolerance alone collapses as the values approach zero, because the
quantity it is a proportion of shrinks with them —
-0.001and0.001read as200% apart while agreeing by any practical measure. An absolute tolerance alone
does not scale.
The same form as
math.isclose(PEP 485) and Julia's
isapprox.numpy.isclosesums the two terms instead.
The proportion is of the larger magnitude of the two extremes. Every other
value in a set lies between them, so that is the largest magnitude in the set.
One anchor for the set is what makes a single highest-to-lowest check
equivalent to checking every pair.
Tolerance validity is the caller's business. A negative tolerance is
dominated by the other term; two zero tolerances make this an exact equality
test. Consumers needing those rejected can reject them.
The precision boundary, documented rather than changed
agreeaccepts a spread an exact comparison would refuse, when the spreadlands exactly on the limit and the subtraction discarded digits that would have
carried it over.
agree(0, 1, -1e-100, 1)is such a case: the real spread is1 + 1e-100, needing 101 significant digits against the coefficient's 76, sosubreturns exactly1and1 <= 1holds.Left as is, for two reasons.
subreports that same spread as exactly1whenasked directly, so resolving the boundary the other way would put
agreeatodds with the library's own arithmetic and make it stricter than every other
operation here. And the excess admitted is bounded by one unit in the last place
of the aligned coefficient — under
1e-76of the spread's own magnitude, withalignment capped at
ADD_MAX_EXPONENT_DIFF.Raised by CodeRabbit, reproduced, and answered in thread. Correcting it properly
needs remainder-aware
addandsubunpacked — the sign of the discardedremainder decides the comparison, so a lossy flag is not enough — which is a
change to the library's precision model rather than a local fix in
agree.The boundary is stated in the natspec with its mechanism and bound, and pinned
so the claim cannot drift.
QA
Discriminating tests: all 26 in
LibDecimalFloat.agree.t.sol, the 16 in theabsCoefficient/lte/maxfiles and the 9 inLibDecimalFloatImplementation.comparisons.t.solfail on base, where these functions do not exist and the files do not compile.

Four packed functions now
route through one unpacked set, so a mis-wiring is a single token that still
compiles and still looks right. F12 survived a first run against a narrower
suite scope — not because coverage was missing, but because the scope excluded
LibDecimalFloat.gte.t.sol. Scope widened to every suite exercising thechanged code, and it dies there.
Oracle:
testAgreeAgainstIntegerOraclecomputes the predicate in plain int256 arithmetic sharing nothing with this library, over a domain where both paths are exact.testAgreeMatchesIntegerComparisonInsidePrecisiondoes the same away from the cliff, which bounds the imprecision to the cliff rather than leaving it as something that might apply anywhere. Fixed-case expectations are derived fromhighest - lowest <= max(absolute, proportional * max(abs(lowest), abs(highest)))before running, not read back from output. The extremes case is derived from the packing bounds — a spread of ~2^224 exceeds an int224 coefficient — and confirmed by probing that packedabsandsubrevert on those inputs. The cliff position is derived fromADD_MAX_EXPONENT_DIFFand then confirmed by the walk, not asserted from a single observation.Category check: adds one public function, the comparison set it needs, and
absCoefficient; all covered by their own tests. The only change to existing functions is the four packed comparisons delegating instead of hand-rolling, which is behaviour preserving and held by their 72 existing tests plus the two wiring mutants.Note on the scoped probe baseline
The probe runs against the suites reachable from this change rather than the
full suite, because the full suite has two pre-existing fuzz failures unrelated
to it, both of which reproduce on
origin/main:testSubPacked—ExponentUnderflownearEXPONENT_MIN, already filed as Packed sub reverts ExponentUnderflow near EXPONENT_MIN where the unpacked reference path succeeds #271.testRoundTripFuzzPow— unexpected pow revert, already filed as pow reverts with Panic(0x11) instead of a typed error for extreme exponents #276 / pow: negative-exponent squaring loop reverts Panic(0x11) instead of ExponentOverflow #239.They reproduce on base at 14 and 27 fuzz runs respectively, and
testSubPackedwas reproduced again on
mainatae02d84with the identical counterexamplewhile preparing this PR. CI shows
maingreen because the fuzz corpus had notreached those inputs; seeding it while probing surfaces them. Anyone running
this suite to judge the library should know that green is seed luck on those
two.
