arith_wrappers

Rust's std offers the Wrapping type for "intentionally wrapping" arithmetic, but curiously does not provide analogous implementations for intentionally saturating, checked, overflowing or panicking arithmetic. This crate addresses these missing wrappers as well as exports an alternative to std's Wrapping, providing a consistent interface across all wrappers in this crate as well as some benefits like trait-enforced access to T::MIN and T::MAX where T implements any of the wrappers defined in this crate.

Without these wrappers, performing correct arithmetic is verbose, error-prone and pedantic, leading to ignoring the problems altogether or hard-to-maintain implementations.

This crate is at a very early pre-alpha stage of implementation and should be considered a PoC.
