## std.convert: Interfaces for type coersion and conversion.
## This module is imported by default.
## The Coerce interface is used for type conversion that will not fail.
## Its associated methods, `from` and `into`, are used internally
## by the compiler for implicit type conversion (coersion).
pub type Coerce[T] = interface
from(T): Self
# into(Self): T
## The `into` function is automatically implemented for all types that
## implement `from`: that is, all types U that are convertable to T.
pub func into[T, U: Coerce[T]](self: T): U =
from(self)
## The Convert interface is used for type conversion that may fail.
# We'll see what this breaks.
pub type Convert[T] = interface
from(T): Self?!
## A blanket implementation of a corresponding `into` function.
pub func into[T, U: Convert[T]](self: T): U =
from(self)
