Can you expand a bit on why / which bits of Scala compilation this is used for?

- hackandthink 3y agoIt is used for pattern matching. I don't know anything about the Scala compiler. A few years ago I needed a CNF Converter and I ripped their Logic Module. (performant CNF Converter are harder to find than SAT Solver)
- rwmj 3y agoNice idea! The pattern matching compiler/optimizer in OCaml doesn't do this. It's implemented using this algorithm which I've attempted to understand a few times but is a bit beyond me: Fabrice Le Fessant, Luc Maranget, Optimizing Pattern-Matching ICFP'2001 http://pauillac.inria.fr/~maranget/papers/opat/ http://pauillac.inria.fr/~maranget/papers/opat/
