Ticket #188 (new defect)

Opened 14 years ago

Chained comparisons should be implemented with strong types when possible

Description

The implementation of chained comparisons uses the dynamic type even when an expression such as 0 <= i < 9 where i is type int could run at "full native speed" using all ints.

For example, it should be possible to show that the above expression is substantially slower than "0 <= i and i < 9".
