@Voultapher I scanned this a bit. If you want to split it out, the diff that only concerns PartialEq and Eq already has my r+ modulo "Jubilee finds a typo on a second/third pass". The rest will take more time to review. |
|
@workingjubilee I have a slight preference for keeping it as one PR if that's fine for you. |
|
@Voultapher Understandable, then! I just wanted to extend the option. |

I got through the non-example text. The large number of whitespace-only changes are part of why this has been a bit slow to review. They are all very distracting, and some of them actually are incorrect. I haven't reviewed the examples yet.
|
I will probably not be able to review the examples without these being fixed, since I will be trying to relate the examples back to prior text. |
In hindsight I should have split the whitespace changes out as a separate commit, sorry. |

I've rebased the branch and added the requested changes as a new commit. |
|
@workingjubilee I think the PR is waiting on review |
|
It is, I was working yesterday mostly on making sure backtraces are handled correctly on Android (and a lot of other platforms tbh). |
|
No worries, please take your time. I mentioned it because the issue has the label |
|
Oh. |

- Makes wording more clear and re-structures some sections that can be overwhelming for some not already in the know. - Adds examples of how *not* to implement Ord, inspired by various anti-patterns found in real world code.

a67d3bd is the new commit, everything else is just a rebase to not fall too far behind master. |

Thank you for this. Sorry for taking so long at points. I think this looks good! I'm not entirely sure if providing examples of bad implementations is not more confusing, in a way? But I think we should try it and find out how people respond. We can easily remove it later if we find it has the "that sign can't stop me because I can't read!" effect, and if memory serves we currently use such "negative examples" in far more dicey situations. And that's a relatively small part of this PR overall. This is a clear improvement throughout. @bors r+ |

...bors, calm down. |
Many of the wording changes are inspired directly by my personal experience of being confused by the
Orddocs and seeing other people get it wrong as well, especially lately having looked at a number ofOrdimplementations as part of #128899.Created with help by @orlp.
