`testEqXEqY` claims that for two equal floats with different coefficients, dividing one coefficient by the other gives the power of ten between their exponents. It branched on the SIGNED comparison of the coefficients, then asserted a relation that only holds for MAGNITUDE ordering, and divided the wrong way round in both branches. Both branches were wrong, so the test failed for every equal pair whose coefficients differ, either sign: - `-30e-4` and `-3e-3` are both `-0.003`. `-3 > -30`, so it took the `y > x` branch and asserted `exponentY < exponentX` — but `-3` is the SMALLER magnitude and correctly carries the LARGER exponent. - `30e-4` and `3e-3` are both `0.003`. It took the other branch and asserted `y / x == 10^(Y - X)`, which is `3 / 30 == 0`, against an expected `10`. The division is inverted: it is the larger magnitude divided by the smaller. It passed because random `int256` fuzz inputs are almost never two numerically equal floats whose coefficients differ by an exact power of ten, so the broken branches were almost never reached. CI found it on rain.math.float#278 only because adding tests there changed the test count and ordering, which changed the per-test fuzz sequence. Confirmed seed-independently by driving main's own test body with the counterexample. `eq` itself is correct throughout — `eq(-30, -4, -3, -3)` returns true, which is right. The defect was entirely in the assertion, which is worse than a code bug for anyone reading the suite to learn the contract. Now keyed on magnitude via `absUnsignedSignedCoefficient`, with the invariant extracted to an internal helper so the fuzz form and the concrete cases assert the same thing rather than two similar things that can drift. `testEqXEqYKnownUnequalCoefficients` pins six pairs — both signs, both argument orders, single and multi decade gaps — so the invariant no longer depends on the fuzzer stumbling onto them. The `10 **` cast is hoisted to its own named statement. A `disable-next-line` above a multi-argument call is fragile, because `forge fmt` reflows the call and moves the cast off the next line, silently detaching the suppression — which happened once while writing this. 48 suites, 446 tests, 0 failed. Lint and fmt clean. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>

Assert equality for each concrete pair.
assertEqXEqYInvariant makes no assertion when eq returns false and the coefficients differ. All six concrete pairs have different coefficients, so an eq regression can pass this test. Assert equality before invoking the invariant.

testEqXEqYasserts a false contract abouteq, and passes by luck.It claims that for two equal floats with different coefficients, dividing one
coefficient by the other gives the power of ten between their exponents. It
branches on the signed comparison of coefficients, then asserts a relation
that only holds for magnitude ordering — and divides the wrong way round in
both branches.
Both branches are wrong, so it fails for every equal pair whose coefficients
differ, either sign:
-30e-4and-3e-3are both-0.003.-3 > -30, so it takes they > xbranch and asserts
exponentY < exponentX. But-3is the smallermagnitude and correctly carries the larger exponent. Fails with
y > x but exponentY >= exponentX.30e-4and3e-3are both0.003. It takes the other branch and assertsy / x == 10^(Y - X), i.e.3 / 30 == 0against an expected10. Thedivision is inverted — it should be the larger magnitude over the smaller.
Fails with
y / x != 10^(Y - X): 0 != 10.eqitself is correct throughout.eq(-30, -4, -3, -3)returns true, whichis right. The defect is entirely in the assertion. That is worse than a code bug
for anyone reading the suite to learn what
eqguarantees.Why it went unnoticed
Random
int256fuzz inputs are almost never two numerically equal floats whosecoefficients differ by an exact power of ten, so the broken branches were almost
never reached.
CI surfaced it on #278 only because adding tests there changed the test count
and ordering, which changed the per-test fuzz sequence. The seed is not portable
between branches for that reason —
mainat that seed runs 445 tests over 48suites and passes, while #278 runs 496 over 53 and fails.
So I confirmed it seed-independently instead: on unmodified
main(ae02d84),driving
main's owntestEqXEqYbody with the counterexample fails, while adirect
eqcall on the same values correctly returns true.The fix
Key the branch on magnitude via
absUnsignedSignedCoefficient, and divide thelarger magnitude by the smaller. The invariant moves into an internal helper so
the fuzz form and the concrete cases assert the same thing rather than two
similar things that can drift apart.
testEqXEqYKnownUnequalCoefficientspins six pairs — both signs, both argumentorders, single and multi-decade gaps — so the invariant no longer depends on the
fuzzer stumbling onto them.
The
10 **cast is hoisted to its own named statement. Adisable-next-lineabove a multi-argument call is fragile:
forge fmtreflows the call, moves thecast off the next line and silently detaches the suppression. That happened once
while writing this, and the hoist makes it reflow-proof.
QA
testEqXEqYKnownUnequalCoefficientsfails on baseand passes here — verified by driving base's own test body with the
counterexample in a clean
origin/mainworktree, not by reasoning about it.The six pairs discriminate the fix from its plausible alternatives: keying on
signed order fails the two negative pairs, and dividing smaller-by-larger
fails all six. Reversed argument orders mean the fix cannot rely on the larger
magnitude arriving first. The fuzz form
testEqXEqYalso still passes, so therewrite did not weaken it into vacuity —
testEqZero,testEqXNotYandtestEqReferencecontinue to constrain the same function.changes a test, not library code; a mutant of the assertion would be scored by
the very assertion under repair, which proves nothing. The equivalent evidence
is the base-versus-fix differential above, which is stronger: the old
assertion is a known failing case on base, and each element of the fix is
shown necessary by a concrete pair that the alternative gets wrong.
-30 × 10^-4 = -0.003and-3 × 10^-3 = -0.003, so they are equal andeqreturning trueis correct;
30e-4and3e-3likewise. The expected ratio10^(gap)followsfrom the definition of the representation rather than from any library call,
and the exponent relation is derived — the larger magnitude must carry the
smaller exponent for the product to be equal — not observed from output.
eq". Covered: both wrong branches, both signs, and the arithmetic direction.Nothing in
srcchanges, no other test is touched, and the fuzz form keepsits original intent as stated in its docstring rather than being narrowed to
make it pass.
Verification

mainis 445; the added test is the one extra).forge lint -D warningsexit 0,forge fmt --checkexit 0.Slither was not run locally —
forge build --build-infocore-dumped in thisworktree under memory pressure. This is a test-only change and slither analyses

This unblocks #278, whose CI hit this test.
