`Constrained` types are represented simply as primitive integers, but their
values will **always** be contained by inclusive range bounds. The range is
defined at compile time, by assigning values to appropriate const generic
parameters. Constrained types provide fallible APIs for construction and
value assignment, they also implement wrapping, saturating, overflowing
and checked arithmetic operations for the range boundaries. See each desired
type documentation for more information.

The `constrained_int` crate relies on the incomplete [generic_const_exprs]
feature to define compile time constraints for const generic parameters.
Therefore, this crate can only be compiled with nightly and, more importantly,
must be considered as an **experimental** crate only.

This crate is `no_std` by default. See features section for more information.

## Install

```toml
# Cargo.toml

[dependencies]
constrained_int = "0.2"
```

## Example

```rust
use constrained_int::i8::{ConstrainedI8, ConstrainedI8Error};

// Lower bound = -5, upper bound = 10, default = -1.
type Constrained = ConstrainedI8<-5, 10, -1>;
type ConstrainedError = ConstrainedI8Error<-5, 10>;

fn main() -> Result<(), ConstrainedError> {
// Gets the default value.
let mut constrained = Constrained::default();
assert_eq!(constrained.get(), -1);

// Sets within inclusive range, succeeds.
constrained.set(-5)?;
assert_eq!(constrained.get(), -5);

// Below lower bound, fails.
assert_eq!(constrained.checked_sub(1), None);
assert_eq!(constrained.get(), -5);

// Saturates at the upper bound.
constrained = constrained.saturating_add(100);
assert_eq!(constrained.get(), 10);

// Sets out of boundary, fails.
assert!(constrained.set(11).is_err());

// Wraps around the upper bound.
constrained = constrained.wrapping_add(1);
assert_eq!(constrained.get(), -5);

Ok(())
}
```

## Documentation

This project documentation is hosted at [docs.rs][doc-link].

## Safety

This crate uses `#![forbid(unsafe_code)]` to ensure everything is implemented in
100% safe Rust.

## Feature flags

This crate does not provide any default features. The features that can be
enabled are: `std` and `serde`.

### std

This crate does not link against the standard library by default, so it is
suitable for `no_std` environments. It does provide a `std` feature though,
that enables the standard library as a dependency. By enabling this crate's
`std` feature, these additional features are provided:

- All crate's error types will implement the `std::error::Error` trait.

If users already are importing the standard library on their crate, enabling
`std` feature comes at no additional cost.

### serde

The `serde` feature implements [serde]'s `Serialize` and `Deserialize` traits
for `Wrapping`, `Saturating` and all `Constrained` types. Note that `Constrained`
type's construction constraints are also evaluated for the `Deserialize`
implementation. See each desired type documentation for more information about
these constraints.
