- Refine the "NaN as a special value" top level explanation of f32
- Refine `const NAN` docstring.
- Refine `fn is_sign_positive` and `fn is_sign_negative` docstrings.
- Refine `fn min` and `fn max` docstrings.
- Refine `fn trunc` docstrings.
- Refine `fn powi` docstrings.
- Refine `fn copysign` docstrings.
- Reword `NaN` and `NAN` as plain "NaN", unless they refer to the specific `const NAN`.
- Reword "a number" to `self` in function docstrings to clarify.
- Remove "Returns NAN if the number is NAN" as this is told to be the default behavior in the top explanation.
- Remove "propagating NaNs", as full propagation (preservation of payloads) is not guaranteed.
This updates the standard library's documentation to use the new syntax. The
documentation is worthwhile to update as it should be more idiomatic
(particularly for features like this, which are nice for users to get acquainted
with). The general codebase is likely more hassle than benefit to update: it'll
hurt git blame, and generally updates can be done by folks updating the code if
(and when) that makes things more readable with the new format.
A few places in the compiler and library code are updated (mostly just due to
already having been done when this commit was first authored).
This works by doing two things:
- Adding links that are specific to the crate. Since not all primitive
items are defined in `core` (due to lang_items), these need to use
relative links and not intra-doc links.
- Duplicating `primitive_docs` in both core and std. This allows not needing CARGO_PKG_NAME to build the standard library. It also adds a tidy check to make sure they stay the same.
