Liquid Types

Liquid Types are an advanced programming concept that combines traditional type systems with logical refinements to specify and verify precise properties of data. Think of them as adding detailed rules to data types—like saying a number must be positive or a string must match a pattern—so software can automatically check that data adheres to these rules, catching errors early. This approach enhances software safety and correctness by allowing automated reasoning about data constraints within the type system itself.
