Ordering laws are violated

Rule ID: correctness.bounded-ordering-law@1.0.0. Availability below refers to source-scan at product 524fa07e.

V-COR-06 — Ordering laws are violated#

Ordering laws are violated. It examines value, collection, identity, ordering, and control-flow contracts.

Availability#

Not available in source-scan. There is no source-scan flag to activate this condition.

Example and action#

Illustrative pattern only. This is not a complete runnable package or a reproduced source-scan result. Helper APIs and omitted context must be supplied by the application.

swift

let ordered = values.sorted { $0 <= $1 }

Make the relevant units, identity or protocol invariant explicit. Exercise boundary inputs and preserve collection and error semantics when applying an edit.

swift

let ordered = values.sorted { $0 < $1 }

Intended analysis#

Intended reasoning: Compare the value, unit, identity or protocol assumptions at each operation. The intended conclusion requires consistent source identities and the relevant path constraints; an unrecognized abstraction can invalidate the comparison. Required evidence: value, identity, ordering, collection, and control-flow facts

Assumptions and unknown#

The relevant facts must be admitted for the selected immutable build world. Unknown aliases, external effects, unsupported source forms or incomplete consumers can prevent a conclusion. Availability in this workflow is stated above; the illustration does not expand that availability.

Evidence and interpretation#

The target catalog describes the intended condition. It is not evidence of an active source-scan diagnostic.

Historical evidence at 4558458d: accepted-subset (a limited set of source forms and profiles passed historical checks). That evidence has not been requalified for this product revision.

How we validate checks explains the evidence boundary. Foundations separates method assumptions from implementation claims.
