; Fieldtest fixture — Axis 3: Float comparison via the named-fn surface. ; ; Newton's method for sqrt: iterate x_{k+1} = (x_k + n/x_k) / 2 until ; |x_{k+1} - x_k| < tol ; Reaches for `float_lt` (loop convergence) and `float_eq` (zero-arg ; guard against pathological 0.0 input). Also exercises Float ; arithmetic + Show Float via `print`. ; ; The interesting bit for the milestone is that there is no ; polymorphic `eq` / `lt` at Float — those would fail at typecheck ; with `NoInstance Eq Float`. The LLM-author has to reach for the ; named family `float_eq` / `float_lt` / `float_gt`. The shape mirrors ; how Rust's `f64::abs` / partial_cmp guides users toward bespoke ; Float-aware methods. ; ; abs implemented inline as `if x < 0 then -x else x` using float_lt. ; ; Expected stdout (one per line): ; 2 (sqrt 4.0) ; 2.0 ; ~3.16 (sqrt 10.0) ; 3.1622776601683795 — exact IEEE ; 0 (sqrt 0.0) ; 0.0, short-circuit ; 1 (sqrt 1.0) ; 1.0 (module eqord_3_newton_sqrt (fn fabs (doc "Float absolute value via the named-fn comparison surface.")
