5// Package types2 declares the data types and implements
6// the algorithms for type-checking of Go packages. Use
7// Config.Check to invoke the type checker for a package.
8// Alternatively, create a new type checker with NewChecker
9// and invoke it incrementally by calling Checker.Files.
10//
11// Type-checking consists of several interdependent phases:
12//
13// Name resolution maps each identifier (syntax.Name) in the program to the
14// language object (Object) it denotes.
15// Use Info.{Defs,Uses,Implicits} for the results of name resolution.
16//
17// Constant folding computes the exact constant value (constant.Value)
18// for every expression (syntax.Expr) that is a compile-time constant.
19// Use Info.Types[expr].Value for the results of constant folding.
20//
21// Type inference computes the type (Type) of every expression (syntax.Expr)
22// and checks for compliance with the language specification.
23// Use Info.Types[expr].Type for the results of type inference.
