Re: [xsmith-dev] Numeric types not playing nice



I've come across another instance of the problem. I use the MutableArray from canned-components, but sometimes my ArrayLiterals get generated with Int and Float literals, probably due to my Mutable Array being a mutable (array-type number-type). Here's the generated s-exps

(ProcedureApplicationSingle
         (procedure
          (LambdaSingleWithExpression
           (parameter (FormalParameter (type #<bool>) (name "arg_2")))
           (body
            (MutableArrayLiteral
             (expressions
              ((FloatLiteral (v -425191240.69550025))
               (IntLiteral (v -65005484))))))))
         (argument (BoolLiteral (v #t)))))))))

Are you sure there is nothing wrong with my type definitions? Am I missing a way to explicitly subtype them?

A version of my project is available at https://gitlab.utwente.nl/s2516268/research-project-2023-1B. It contains a very simple fuzzer with many borrowed elements from the python fuzzer from xsmith-examples. I have replaced all the fresh-subtypes with(fresh-type-variable integral-type fractional-type)instead, which seems to cause no more issues. However, if this is a bug it would of course be interesting to my research.
Thanks for the quick response, and I look forward to hearing from you.

Hmm, that sounds like a bug.  Can you share a link to your code?

This may be one of those corners of Xsmith that was built out but
never seriously exercised.

However, Xsmith still generates Minus nodes with 'l integral and 'r fractional, causing a type constraint violation in Haskell. I have since switched to using (fresh-type-variable integral-type fractional-type). This works, but I am still puzzled about fresh-subtypes. REPL experiments confirm that even fresh-subtypes of my real-types can be unified with both fractional-type and integral-type. What happens when a fresh-subtype is created?
