Summary

Calculate Field wrote every result through the text it shows. coerce in crates/engine/src/cmd/edit.rs did Value::parse(&value.to_string(), ty), and Display for a decimal rounds to six places. So, with no notice:

Expression Field Stored before Now
1 / 3 Double 0.333333 0.3333333333333333
y * 0.000000001 (y = 2020) Double 0.000002 0.00000202
y * 1e300 Double inf (v * 1e6 overflowed in Display) 2.02e303
y / 7 (y = 2020) Integer 288 288, and Calculate Field: 'i' holds whole numbers, so 1 result lost its fraction
y * 1e17 (y = 2020) Integer 9223372036854775807 (saturated) empty, and Calculate Field: 'i' is null for 1 result past the 64-bit integer range

Reproduced with rustgis-cli run --data … --cmd 'edit.calculateField=…' and a GeoJSON export, which writes the stored decimal in full. Export isn't the loss: a Double read from a file is kept and exported exactly.

Now coerce puts a number into a number field as it is (Float into Double, Int into Integer, Int into Double). A decimal, or text written as one, into an Integer field still loses its fraction toward zero, as before. Text written as a whole number, or as a decimal without an exponent, is read from its digits, so "9223372036854775807.0" is i64::MAX and "-9223372036854775809" is past the range (as a decimal it would round to -2^63, which is i64::MIN). coerce_cut says what was cut, and makes a result past the 64-bit range (or not a number) null. Calculate Field and data-design calculation rules (design::apply_with, once the edit is kept) use it and give one notice per kind with a count. Other callers of coerce (Add Feature's attributes, subtype and template defaults, domain codes, contingent values: all values given in the command) keep the earlier value past the range, the range's end. Not a number (NaN, "inf" text) is null there, where it used to be 0 or the range's end, still without a notice. Reporting from those writers is left for the Edit Attribute follow-up after #1325. Everything else goes through text as before, and text that isn't a number stays null.

One boundary case changes: an expression whose result is exactly i64::MAX written as a literal (9223372036854775807) used to land on i64::MAX through the saturation. The expression language reads number literals from 9e15 up as decimals (query.rs, num), so the result is 2^63, one past the range. It is now null, and the notice says so.

The same coerce writes attributes given to Add Feature and Edit Attribute as JSON numbers, subtype defaults and contingent-value codes. Those keep their decimals now too.

This overlaps a little with the draft #1325 (date types), which also changes coerce and calculate_field and adds a notice for results that become null. The two touch different cases, and the merge is a few lines in coerce.

Testing

  • cargo xtask ci.
  • New calculate_field_keeps_decimals_and_says_what_whole_numbers_cut in crates/engine/src/tests.rs, through Session on a layer read from GeoJSON:
    • Double: 1 / 3, a billionth, y * 1e300 (not infinite) and halves are stored exactly, with no notice;
    • Integer: fractions toward zero (288, 2, -2) with the count, whole results with no notice, past the range null with the count, both ends of the range (-2^63 fits, 2^63 doesn't);
    • text written as a decimal loses its fraction and is counted, text written as a whole number is exact, other text is null as before; decimal text at the range's ends is read from its digits ("9223372036854775807.0", "-9223372036854775808.9", "-.5"), and so is whole-number text past them ("-9223372036854775809", "-9223372036854775900", "+9223372036854775808": null, counted); other callers of coerce still hold such text at the range's end; text with an exponent as a decimal; the singular wording;
    • Edit Attribute keeps a decimal as it is, and a number past the range still at the range's end (no new silent null);
    • a data-design calculation rule gives its notice on an edit it cuts and none on one it doesn't, a decimal rule's result is exact, and a rejected edit gives no rule notice;
    • "NaN" and "inf" text is null and said not to be a number, "1e400" is past the range; each step says what it cut, even when a later rule on the same field reads the cut value (Seventh: y / 7, then Double: i * 2), and Calculate Field's notice comes after the rules that ran in its edit;
    • unit test coerce_takes_not_a_number_as_null: NaN is null with its own notice (… is null for 2 results that aren't numbers), and the notices' wording.
  • Left for follow-ups: Edit Attribute still holds a number past the range at the range's end, as before (after feat(data): date and date-time field types (#853, part 1) #1325, which reworks set_value); text that isn't a number is null, which feat(data): date and date-time field types (#853, part 1) #1325's notice will report; a number into a text field is written as shown, to six places (documented).
  • The test fails on main (0.333333).
  • Mutation check (30 mutants killed, 1 equivalent): decimals through text into Double or Integer, no fraction or range flag, a saturated value instead of null, an inclusive 2^63 bound, text decimals not counted, rounding instead of truncation, missing notices, a rule not counting or using the plain conversion, other callers getting null past the range, decimal text not read from its digits (any fraction digit counted, the sign dropped, past the range not null), whole-number text past the range read as a decimal, text past the range not saturated for other callers, NaN counted as past the range, made silent or 0, words such as "inf" taken as numbers or left silent, an earlier rule's cut dropped when a later rule writes the same field, notices dropped or mixed up.

Summary by CodeRabbit

  • Bug Fixes

    • Calculate Field preserves decimal results in decimal fields and truncates fractional values toward zero in whole-number fields.
    • Whole-number results outside the supported 64-bit range, non-finite results, and nonnumeric results are left empty.
    • Notices report counts of results that lost fractional parts, exceeded the range, or were not numbers, including results from calculation attribute rules. Rejected edits do not trigger these notices.
    • Numbers written to text fields display up to six decimal places.
  • Documentation

    • Updated the expression guide to explain conversion behavior and notices.

…whole-number field cuts

Every value Calculate Field wrote went through the text it shows and was
read back, and a decimal shows only six places: 1 / 3 into a Double
field was stored as 0.333333, a billionth as 0, and a result past 1e302
as infinity. A decimal into an Integer field lost its fraction, and one
past the 64-bit range became i64::MAX, without a word.

A number now goes into a number field as it is, and text written as a
decimal is read from its digits. A decimal into a whole-number field
still loses its fraction toward zero; in Calculate Field and data-design
calculation rules one past the 64-bit range is null, and they say how
many results lost their fraction and how many were left empty. Other
writers keep the range's end there, as before. The other values the same conversion
writes (attributes given to Add Feature and Edit Attribute, subtype
defaults) keep their decimals too.

Walkthrough

Calculation result conversion now handles fractional values, range overflow, and non-numeric values. Calculate Field and calculation rules collect cut counts and send notices. Tests and documentation cover these outcomes.

Changes: Calculation conversion

Layer / File(s) Summary
Coercion and cut classification
crates/engine/src/cmd/edit.rs
Type-aware conversion handles integer, floating-point, and numeric-text inputs. Whole-number conversion truncates fractions toward zero. coerce_cut returns null for range overflow and classifies discarded fractions, overflow, and non-numbers. Tests cover conversion, classification, and notice wording.
Calculation updates and notices
crates/engine/src/cmd/edit.rs, crates/engine/src/cmd/design.rs, crates/engine/src/tests.rs, docs/user-guide/expressions.md
Calculate Field and calculation rules use cut-aware conversion and report notices after edits are applied. Tests cover conversion results, multiple calculation rules, and rejected edits. Documentation describes conversion behavior and notices.

Numeric precision improves, but unusual exponent-form text still has conversion gaps, and Add Feature can silently replace NaN/inf text with empty Integer attributes. These bounded cases warrant owner awareness and follow-up; the negative-overflow test should also assert stored values.

Code review

Reviewed the diff (4 files), the base-branch AGENTS.md, and the surrounding coerce, Value::parse, Display, and expression code. I could not build or run the tests in this environment, so the test results are unverified. There were no earlier review threads, so nothing was left alone as already raised.

Bugs

  • Decimals written into Text fields still round silently. A Float into a Text field goes through Display, which keeps six places and prints inf above about 1e303. Calculate Field with 1 / 3 into a Text field stores 0.333333. Suggested fix is f.to_string() for that case. Confidence: medium-high. Inline comment posted (edit.rs:135).
  • NaN is reported as "past the 64-bit range". whole classifies NaN as Cut::Range, so Calculate Field gives the wrong notice. Non-Calculate callers still get NaN as i64 = 0, which the coerce doc does not describe. Confidence: low-medium. Inline comment posted (edit.rs:140).

Security

  • None found. The change adds no unwrap, unsafe, or new command surface. The new text-to-number parsing is bounded.

Performance

  • None worth raising. The extra parse in convert runs once per cell and is negligible.

Quality

  • Grouped nits, not posted inline (left for the release quality pass):
    • convert returns a triple whose third element only matters for Cut::Range. Carrying the value in the variant (Cut::Range(f64)) would be clearer.
    • The results closure and the notice wording are duplicated in design.rs and edit.rs. A shared helper would remove that.
    • decimal_text and the parse::<f64> fallback parse the same text twice.

AGENTS.md

  • Silent losses that the PR keeps and pins with tests. Two inline comments posted:
    • 1e30 written by Edit Attribute saturates to i64::MAX with no notice (tests.rs:25616, confidence medium).
    • Non-numeric text becomes null in an Integer field with no notice (tests.rs:25594, confidence medium). Pre-existing behaviour, but the PR is about these notices and the test locks it in.
  • Checked and not raised: engine notices use plain format! like the rest of the crate, so no tl! issue. The new test uses unwrap only in test code. The expression-language literal change (9223372036854775807 now null) is disclosed in the PR.

Minor follow-up Parse decimal text exactly in setvalue's string branch.

126-130: 🎯 Functional Correctness | 🟡 Minor | ⚡ Quick win

Parse decimal text exactly in set_value's string branch.

set_value sends JSON strings to Value::parse, not to the new coerce text path. For an Integer field, Value::parse reads decimal text through f64, so digits past 2^53 are lost. A string such as 9007199254740993.0 stores 9007199254740992. Route string values through coerce, which reads whole-number text from its digits.

Suggested fix
     let v = match raw {
-        Json::String(t) => Value::parse(&t, ty),
+        Json::String(t) => coerce(Value::Text(t), ty),
         other => coerce(Value::from_json(&other), ty),
     };

92-94: 🗄️ Data Integrity & Integration | 🟡 Minor | ⚡ Quick win

Report the fraction that edit.setValue drops from Integer fields.

set_value converts a numeric JSON value with coerce, which discards the Cut::Fraction result. A value such as 2.7 in an Integer field is stored as 2, and no notice is emitted. Use coerce_cut in set_value and notify on Cut::Fraction, as calculate_field does.

Based on learnings: "A reader, writer, tool or command that drops, truncates or approximates data says what, how much and where." and "Existing silent losses are bugs."

25652-25653: 📐 Maintainability & Code Quality | 🔵 Trivial | ⚡ Quick win

Assert that a rejected edit leaves row 1 unchanged.

The rejected-edit block checks only the error and the absence of rule notices. It does not read row 1's y after the rejected edit.setValue. set_value writes the value before design::apply enforces the constraint, so a regression that drops the rollback would pass this test.

…only cuts still stored

Not a number into a whole-number field was counted as past the 64-bit
range (and other writers stored it as 0); it is null now, with a notice
of its own, and text that is only a word the decimal reader takes
("NaN", "inf") is not a number either. Each step says what it cut,
Calculate Field and every calculation rule, even when a later rule
writes the same field, since that rule may read the cut value. The
notices come from one helper, Cuts. The docs say a whole number
past 2^53 becomes the nearest decimal in a decimal field, and a number
goes into a text field as it's shown.

Code review

Bugs

  • Text with an exponent that underflows to zero, such as "1e-400", parses to 0.0 in the text-to-Integer arm. The fraction is lost with no notice. The decimal path reports the same kind of loss, so this is the only gap. Low confidence (about 40%). Inline comment at crates/engine/src/cmd/edit.rs:174.

Security

  • None found.

Performance

  • None found. The extra parses on the text path are negligible.

Quality

  • The three-line comment above calculate_field's cuts (edit.rs:364-368) contradicts the code. The first two lines describe the earlier "count only if no rule overwrites" design, and the third says the opposite. High confidence. Inline suggestion posted.
  • Nits, grouped for the release quality pass: convert returns a triple whose third element only serves the range saturation in coerce. Carrying the f64 in Cut::Range would be simpler. The text arm also calls t.trim() and both parsers repeatedly. Medium confidence on the simplification value, low on any functional effect.

AGENTS.md

  • docs/user-guide/expressions.md:168 says Calculate Field "says how many results ... were left empty". That is not true for text that isn't a number, which is still left empty silently until feat(data): date and date-time field types (#853, part 1) #1325. Medium-high confidence. Inline suggestion posted.
  • Otherwise the new code follows the rules: no unwrap in non-test code, notices go through Session::notify with one notice per kind and a count, and the tests cover both lossy and clean input.

Earlier concerns left alone: 9 threads already on this PR. I did not re-raise them. Two are answered and deferred to a follow-up: silent saturation in Edit Attribute, and silent null for non-number text. Two are resolved: the NaN notice and the non-finite text notice. One is declined by the author: six-place rounding in text fields. The design.rs superseded-counts thread and the edit.rs:341 stored-values thread were answered and are not re-raised. One is unanswered and is test-strength only: the .0 discard at tests.rs:25588.

Not verified: I had no shell in this review, so I did not compile or run cargo xtask ci or the new test. Everything above is from reading the diff and the surrounding source.

25661-25664: Trivial · Maintainability & Code Quality · Quick win

Use an input where the same-field chain gives different results for a stored value and an unrounded value.

At y = 15, the chained Double output is 4 whether it reads Seventh's stored 2 or the unrounded 15/7. The test therefore does not confirm that Double reads the converted value. The y = 21 input is exact, so it has the same ambiguity.

🧪 Suggested test addition
     assert_eq!(edit(&mut s, 15), Ok((vec![seventh("1 result")], V::Int(4))));
+    // 20 / 7 is 2.86. The chain must read the stored 2, giving 4; the unrounded value would give 5.
+    assert_eq!(edit(&mut s, 20), Ok((vec![seventh("1 result")], V::Int(4))));
     // Calculate Field says what it cut too, after the rules that ran in its edit.

… a stale comment

The Calculate Field docs promised a notice for every result left empty,
but text that doesn't read as a number is still left empty without one;
they now say so, and name the three kinds that are said. The comment
above Calculate Field's count described an earlier design that skipped
cuts a rule writes over; every cut is said.

Code review

Bugs

  • Whole-number text at the negative end of the range is rounded silently (confidence: high). Text with no ., such as "-9223372036854775809", is parsed as f64. That rounds to -2^63, which is inside the accepted range, so Calculate Field stores i64::MIN with no notice. The notice path only sees the decimal reader, so this is outside what the PR's tests cover. Posted inline at crates/engine/src/cmd/edit.rs:175 with a one-line suggestion and a test to add.

Security

  • None found. The change does no I/O. The new parsing uses get-style checks and does not index or panic on hostile text.

Performance

  • None worth raising. Each cell parses its text up to three times, which is negligible for field values.

Quality

  • convert returns a three-part tuple, and the third element is a hidden channel that carries the out-of-range value to coerce. coerce, coerce_cut and convert are hard to follow together. Left for the release quality pass (confidence: medium).

AGENTS.md

  • The PR follows the "never crash" rule. The new code has no unwrap, expect or indexing, and it adds no command that the hostile-parameter test would miss.
  • The "never silent" rule is still broken by the "n/a" text path, which is documented and deferred to feat(data): date and date-time field types (#853, part 1) #1325. The bug above is a new instance of the same rule, not an existing one.
  • Notices use format!, which matches the engine's existing notices (for example edit.rs:240), so no change is needed there.

I left 12 earlier threads alone because the author or a maintainer answered them and I found no new evidence:

  • Text-field rounding to six places.
  • Edit Attribute saturating a number past the range (a follow-up is planned).
  • The NaN notice (fixed).
  • "n/a" silently becoming null (deferred to feat(data): date and date-time field types (#853, part 1) #1325).
  • The strict assertion, sent to the quality pass.
  • The 1e-400 exponent underflow.
  • The superseded-cut counts.
  • The stale comment (fixed).
  • The final-value filter idea.
  • The Integer-to-Double wording (fixed).
  • The non-finite text notice (fixed).
  • The expressions doc wording (fixed).

…range from its digits

Text such as "-9223372036854775809" failed to parse as i64 and was read
as a decimal instead, which rounds it to -2^63, i.e. i64::MIN. Calculate
Field then stored i64::MIN with no notice. Whole-number text now goes
through the same digit reader as decimal text, so it is null and
reported as past the range. Other callers of coerce still saturate it
as before.

Code review

Bugs

  • Silent null for NaN and inf text in other writers (medium-high). coerce is used by Add Feature, subtype and template defaults, and contingent codes. Text "NaN" now stores null silently in a whole-number field, where it used to store 0. Text "inf" now stores null, where it used to store i64::MAX. The PR body says nothing becomes null without a word, and that isn't true here. Inline comment posted at crates/engine/src/cmd/edit.rs:93.

Security

  • None found. The changed code takes expression results and text as data. It uses get-style access and no unwrap in non-test code, and I found no injection path.

Performance

  • None worth raising. Each value gets a few string checks and one parse.

Quality (left for the release quality pass)

  • convert returns a three-field tuple where the Option<f64> is only used for the saturation in coerce. Splitting that out would read more clearly.
  • decimal_text returns Value::Null alongside Cut::Range, which mixes "value" and "reason" in one place.

AGENTS.md

  • No violations found. Notices use format!, which matches the other 86 notices in crates/engine/src. The tests cover both lossy and clean input. No new dependencies.

Already raised earlier, left alone: 13 threads on this PR. Still open or deferred: Text-into-Text rounding (author declined), the 1e30 saturation in Edit Attribute (follow-up), the "n/a" silent null (covered by #1325), "1e-400" exponent underflow (author declined), the stricter assertion (quality pass). The rest were fixed or withdrawn, and I did not re-raise them.

Not verified: I could not build or run the tests here. Everything above comes from reading the diff and the surrounding code.

Report the rounding when a whole number above 2^53 is written to a Double field.

Above 2^53, convert rounds an Integer value to the nearest f64 and reports no cut. Calculate Field, design rules, and attribute writes then store the rounded value silently. Add a notice kind for this loss through Cuts, as the "Never silent" section of AGENTS.md requires.

As per coding guidelines, "A reader, writer, tool or command that drops, truncates or approximates data says what, how much and where," reported through Session::notify with "one notice per kind with a count."

Minor · Functional Correctness · Quick win

Report dropped fractions when Edit Attribute writes a number to an integer field.

set_value converts a numeric JSON value with coerce, which discards the Cut. A fraction is removed without a notice. For example, 0.9999999 written to an integer field stores 0 and reports nothing.

Keep coerce for the stored value. Edit Attribute keeps its current out-of-range behavior, so coerce_cut cannot replace it. Read the cut separately, and report only fraction loss, as Calculate Field does.

Minor · Functional Correctness · Quick win

Map NaN to null for Double fields, as the coerce doc states.

The coerce doc says "Not a number is null," and the Integer path already nulls NaN with a notice. For Double fields, the Value::Float arm returns NaN unchanged with Cut::None, so no notice is produced. Text "NaN" written to a Double field also becomes Value::Float(NaN) through Value::parse, which parses it with t.parse::<f64>(). Both paths should null NaN and report it with the same notice.

Suggested fix
+        (Value::Float(f), FieldType::Double) if f.is_nan() => (Value::Null, Cut::NotANumber, None),
         (Value::Float(f), FieldType::Double) => (Value::Float(f), Cut::None, None),
+        (Value::Text(t), FieldType::Double) if t.trim().parse::<f64>().is_ok_and(f64::is_nan) => (Value::Null, Cut::NotANumber, None),
         (Value::Text(t), _) => (Value::parse(&t, ty), Cut::None, None),

Assert the stored values for the out-of-range y * 1e18 row.

This check compares only the notice list. All three rows are outside the 64-bit range and store null. Row 3 (-15e18) lies below i64::MIN, and no assertion checks its stored value. A change that clamps only this negative value to i64::MIN and still records the cut would pass the existing numeric checks. Compare the stored values as well, as the neighboring y * 0 + 9223372036854775808 check does.

🧪 Suggested fix
-    assert_eq!(calc(&mut s, "i", "y * 1e18").0, [past("3 results")]);
+    assert_eq!(calc(&mut s, "i", "y * 1e18"), (vec![past("3 results")], vec![V::Null; 3]));

- Line 174: Update the `convert` match arm that calls `whole(f)` so an `f64`
result of zero from text with a nonzero mantissa is reported as `Cut::Fraction`,
including underflowed exponents such as `1e-400`. Preserve the existing
`whole(f)` behavior for other values and leave `Cuts::add` unchanged.
- Line 174: Update the exponent-form parsing branch that calls whole(f) to parse
integral exponent text exactly before checking the i64 range, reusing the exact
decimal-parsing approach in decimal_text rather than relying on rounded f64
values. Ensure the i64 maximum is accepted and values below the minimum are
rejected with a notice.
