Right now I see the following behavior for static constant expressions which I am pretty sure didn’t work this way in bucklescript + reasonml
Like here rescript omits unoptimized calculation
Or even does not prevaluate constants.
var audio_height = 120.0 / 2.0;
This kind of optimisation is kind of killer feature of compiled-to-js languge IMHO. Or maybe I am doing something wrong? Is there any way to turn on the optimiser like flambda?
Hi, we did not do such things for floating point number as it will get tricky. e.g, 1.0 / 3.0
It seems like integer division never was pre-evaluated either.
Huh, never knew about it works that way until today.
I was searching through the docs but did not manage to find a page where pre-evaluation is documented. Am I using the wrong keywords or such a page does not exist?
I was really surprised that this really works only with integers Reason · Reason lets you write simple, fast and quality type safe code while leveraging both the JavaScript & OCaml ecosystems.
Thanks for answering, probably the great thing to add to the docs as a feature of Rescript
