           Summary: std.algorithm.sort asserts unexpectedly with certain
                    comparators
           Product: D
           Version: D2
          Platform: x86_64
        OS/Version: Windows
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: DMD
        AssignedTo: nobody puremagic.com
        ReportedBy: peter.alexander.au gmail.com



14:10:13 PDT ---
The following code asserts unexpectedly when compiled with DMD 2.048 using no
flags.

void main()
{
    alias Tuple!(int, "x", int, "y") V;
    V[] vs = [V(3, 4), V(6, 8)];    
    float arg(V v) { return atan2(cast(float)v.y, cast(float)v.x); }
    bool order(V a, V b) { return arg(a) < arg(b); }
    sort!order(vs);
}

core.exception.AssertError C:\D\dmd2\windows\bin\..\..\src\phobos\std\array.d(356):
Attempting to fetch the front of an empty array

It does not assert when the arg(V) function is replaced to be something more
simple, and only asserts when vs has particular values.

I suspect this has something to do with floating point inaccuracies with atan2,
but haven't looked deep enough into the issue.

Mass migration of bugs marked as x86-64 to just x86.  The platform run on isn't
what's relevant, it's if the app is a 32 or 64 bit app.

Note that replacing
    float arg(V v) { return atan2(cast(float)v.y , cast(float)v.x); }
with
    float arg(V v) { return (cast(float)v.y * cast(float)v.x); }
or
    float arg(V v) { return (cast(float)v.y / cast(float)v.x); }
is enough to make the bug disappear...

Works for me on 2.059. I'll also note that arg(v[0]) == arg(v[1]).

I'm sorry but I'm reopening the case: there is no reason for the sort to fail
if two elements are equal. A sort that fails in this case is broken.

Besides, as I've said before, it works with a multiplication or a division,
even with equals elements. It only fails with the atan2 function.

import std.stdio;
import std.typecons, std.algorithm, std.math;

void main()
{
    alias Tuple!(int, "x", int, "y") V;
    V[] vs = [V(6, 8), V(1, 2), V(6, 8), V(5,6)];    
    float arg(V v) { return (cast(float)v.y * cast(float)v.x); }
    bool order(V a, V b) { return arg(a) < arg(b); }
    writeln(sort!order(vs));
}

I meant to say it works for me with no assert no nothing. For the last example
the output is:

Tuple!(int,"x",int,"y")(1, 2), Tuple!(int,"x",int,"y")(5, 6),
Tuple!(int,"x",int,"y")(6, 8), Tuple!(int,"x",int,"y")(6, 8)]

Rats. That's the output with the multiplication. Using atan2 the output is:

[Tuple!(int,"x",int,"y")(5, 6), Tuple!(int,"x",int,"y")(6, 8),
Tuple!(int,"x",int,"y")(6, 8), Tuple!(int,"x",int,"y")(1, 2)]

That's on OSX Lion/64 bit.
