           Look for the bare necessities,
             the simple bare necessities.
           Forget about your worries and your strife.
        
                                   — `The Jungle Book`_.
        
        **Beartype** is an open-source pure-Python `PEP-compliant <Compliance_>`__
        `O(1) constant-time <Timings_>`__ runtime type checker emphasizing efficiency,
        portability, and thrilling puns.
        
        Beartype brings Rust_- and `C++`_-inspired `zero-cost abstractions <zero-cost
        abstraction_>`__ into the lawless world of dynamically-typed pure Python.
        
        Beartype is `portably implemented <codebase_>`__ in `Python 3 <Python_>`__,
        `continuously stress-tested <tests_>`__ via `GitHub Actions`_ **+** tox_ **+**
        pytest_, and `permissively distributed <beartype license_>`__ under the `MIT
        license`_. Beartype has no runtime dependencies, `only one test-time dependency
        <pytest_>`__, and supports `all Python 3.x releases still in active development
        <Python status_>`__.

        Installation
        ============
        
        Let's install ``beartype`` with pip_, because community standards are good:
        
        .. code-block:: shell-session
        
           pip3 install beartype
        
        Let's install ``beartype`` with Anaconda_, because corporate standards are
        (occasionally) good too:
        
        .. code-block:: shell-session
        
           conda config --add channels conda-forge
           conda install beartype
        
        Linux
        -----
        
        Let's install ``beartype`` with Gentoo_, because source-based Linux distros are
        the computational nuclear option:
        
        .. code-block:: shell-session
        
           emerge --ask app-eselect/eselect-repository
           mkdir -p /etc/portage/repos.conf
           eselect repository enable raiagent
           emerge --sync raiagent
           emerge beartype
        
        Overview
        ========
        
        Beartype imposes no developer constraints beyond `importation and usage of a
        single configuration-free decorator <Cheatsheet_>`__ – trivializing integration
        with new and existing applications, frameworks, modules, packages, and scripts.
        Beartype stresses zero-cost strategies at both:
        
        * **Installation time.** Beartype has no install-time or runtime dependencies,
          `supports standard Python package managers <Installation_>`__, and happily
          coexists with competing static type checkers and other runtime type checkers.
        * **Runtime.** Thanks to aggressive memoization and code generation at
          decoration time, beartype guarantees `O(1) constant-time runtime complexity
          with negligible constant factors <Timings_>`__.
        
        Like competing static type checkers operating at the coarse-grained application
        level with ad-hoc heuristic type inference (e.g., Pyre_, mypy_, pyright_,
        pytype_), beartype effectively `imposes no runtime overhead <Timings_>`__.
        Unlike static type checkers:
        
        * Beartype operates exclusively at the fine-grained callable level of
          pure-Python functions and methods via the standard decorator design pattern.
          This renders beartype natively compatible with *all* interpreters and
          compilers targeting the Python language – including PyPy_, Numba_, Nuitka_,
          and (wait for it) CPython_ itself.
        * Beartype enjoys deterministic Turing-complete access to the actual callables,
          objects, and types being type-checked. This enables beartype to solve dynamic
          problems decidable only at runtime – including type-checking of arbitrary
          objects whose:
        
          * Metaclasses `dynamically customize instance and subclass checks
            <_isinstancecheck>`__ by implementing the ``__instancecheck__()`` and/or
            ``__subclasscheck__()`` dunder methods, including:
        
            * `PEP 3119`_-compliant metaclasses (e.g., `abc.ABCMeta`_).
        
          * Pseudo-superclasses `dynamically customize the method resolution order
            (MRO) of subclasses <_mro_entries>`__ by implementing the
            ``__mro_entries__()`` dunder method, including:
        
            * `PEP 560`_-compliant pseudo-superclasses.
        
          * Classes dynamically register themselves with standard abstract base classes
            (ABCs), including:
        
            * `PEP 3119`_-compliant third-party virtual base classes.
            * `PEP 3141`_-compliant third-party virtual number classes (e.g., SymPy_).
        
          * Classes are dynamically constructed or altered, including by:
        
            * Class decorators.
            * Class factory functions and methods.
            * Metaclasses.
            * Monkey patches.
        
        Unlike comparable runtime type checkers (e.g., enforce_, pytypes_, typeguard_),
        beartype decorates callables with dynamically generated wrappers efficiently
        type-checking each parameter passed to and value returned from those callables
        in constant time. Since "performance by default" is our first-class concern,
        generated wrappers are guaranteed to:
        
        * Exhibit `O(1) constant-time complexity with negligible constant factors
          <Timings_>`__.
        * Be either more efficient (in the common case) or exactly as efficient minus
          the cost of an additional stack frame (in the worst case) as equivalent
          type-checking implemented by hand, *which no one should ever do.*

        ``beartype`` is:
        
        * **At least twenty times faster** (i.e., 20,000%) and consumes **three orders
          of magnitude less time** in the worst case than typeguard_ – the only
          comparable runtime type-checker also compatible with most modern Python
          versions.
        * **Asymptotically faster** in the best case than typeguard_, which scales
          linearly (rather than not at all) with the size of checked containers.
        * Constant across type hints, taking roughly the same time to check parameters
          and return values hinted by the builtin type ``str`` as it does to check
          those hinted by the unified type ``Union[int, str]`` as it does to check
          those hinted by the container type ``List[object]``. typeguard_ is
          variable across type hints, taking significantly longer to check
          ``List[object]`` as as it does to check ``Union[int, str]``, which takes
          roughly twice the time as it does to check ``str``.
        
        ``beartype`` performs most of its work at *decoration* time. The ``@beartype``
        decorator consumes most of the time needed to first decorate and then
        repeatedly call a decorated function. ``beartype`` is thus front-loaded. After
        paying the initial cost of decoration, each type-checked call thereafter incurs
        comparatively little overhead.
        
        Conventional runtime type checkers perform most of their work at *call* time.
        The ``@typeguard.typechecked`` and similar decorators consume almost none of
        the time needed to first decorate and then repeatedly call a decorated
        function. They are thus back-loaded. Although the initial cost of decoration is
        essentially free, each type-checked call thereafter incurs significant
        overhead.
        
        Nobody Expects the Linearithmic Time
        ------------------------------------
        
        Math time, people. :sup:`it's happening`
        
        Most runtime type-checkers exhibit ``O(n)`` time complexity (where ``n`` is the
        total number of items recursively contained in a container to be checked) by
        recursively and repeatedly checking *all* items of *all* containers passed to
        or returned from *all* calls of decorated callables.
        
        ``beartype`` guarantees ``O(1)`` time complexity by non-recursively but
        repeatedly checking *one* random item at *all* nesting levels of *all*
        containers passed to or returned from *all* calls of decorated callables, thus
        amortizing the cost of deeply checking containers across calls. (See the
        subsection on `@beartype-generated code deeply type-checking arbitrarily nested
        containers in constant time <Constant Nested Deep Sequence Decoration_>`__ for
        what this means in practice.)
        
        ``beartype`` exploits the `well-known coupon collector's problem <coupon
        collector's problem_>`__ applied to abstract trees of nested type hints,
        enabling us to statistically predict the number of calls required to fully
        type-check all items of an arbitrary container on average. Formally, let:
        
        * ``E(T)`` be the expected number of calls needed to check all items of a
          container containing only non-container items (i.e., containing *no* nested
          subcontainers) either passed to or returned from a ``@beartype``\ -decorated
          callable.
        * ``γ ≈ 0.5772156649`` be the `Euler–Mascheroni constant`_.
        
        Then:
        
        .. #FIXME: GitHub currently renders LaTeX-based "math" directives in
        .. # reStructuredText as monospaced literals, which is hot garbage. Until
        .. # resolved, do the following:
        .. # * Preserve *ALL* such directives as comments, enabling us to trivially
        .. #   revert to the default approach after GitHub resolves this.
        .. # * Convert *ALL* such directives into GitHub-hosted URLs via any of the

        .. #FIXME: Uncomment after GitHub resolves LaTeX math rendering.

        The summation ``½ + O(1/n)`` is strictly less than 1 and thus negligible. While
        non-negligible, the term ``γn`` grows significantly slower than the term
        ``nlogn``. So this reduces to:
        
        .. #FIXME: Uncomment after GitHub resolves LaTeX math rendering.
        .. # .. math:: E(T) = O(n \log n)
        
        .. image:: https://render.githubusercontent.com/render/math?math=%5Cdisplaystyle+E%28T%29+%3D+O%28n+%5Clog+n%29
        
        We now generalize this bound to the general case. When checking a container
        containing *no* subcontainers, ``beartype`` only randomly samples one item from
        that container on each call. When checking a container containing arbitrarily
        many nested subcontainers, however, ``beartype`` randomly samples one random
        item from each nesting level of that container on each call.
        
        In general, ``beartype`` thus samples ``h`` random items from a container on
        each call, where ``h`` is that container's height (i.e., maximum number of
        edges on the longest path from that container to a non-container leaf item
        reachable from items directly contained in that container). Since ``h ≥ 1``,
        ``beartype`` samples at least as many items each call as assumed in the usual
        `coupon collector's problem`_ and thus paradoxically takes a fewer number of
        calls on average to check all items of a container containing arbitrarily many
        subcontainers as it does to check all items of a container containing *no*
        subcontainers.
        
        Ergo, the expected number of calls ``E(S)`` needed to check all items of an
        arbitrary container exhibits the same or better growth rate and remains bound
        above by at least the same upper bounds – but probably tighter: e.g.,
        
        .. #FIXME: Uncomment after GitHub resolves LaTeX math rendering.
        .. # .. math:: E(S) = O(E(T)) = O(n \log n)
        
        .. image:: https://render.githubusercontent.com/render/math?math=%5Cdisplaystyle+E%28S%29+%3D+O%28E%28T%29%29+%3D+O%28n+%5Clog+n%29%0A
        
        Fully checking a container takes no more calls than that container's size times
        the logarithm of that size on average. For example, fully checking a **list of
        50 integers** is expected to take **225 calls** on average.

        Full Compliance
        ---------------
        
        ``beartype`` **deeply type-checks** (i.e., directly checks the types of *and*

        Tutorial
        ========
        
        Let's begin with the simplest type of type-checking supported by ``@beartype``.
        
        Builtin Types
        -------------
        
        **Builtin types** like ``dict``, ``int``, ``list``, ``set``, and ``str`` are
        trivially type-checked by annotating parameters and return values with those
        types as is.
        
        Let's declare a simple beartyped function accepting a string and a dictionary
        and returning a tuple:
        
        .. code-block:: python
        
           from beartype import beartype
        
           @beartype
           def law_of_the_jungle(wolf: str, pack: dict) -> tuple:
               return (wolf, pack[wolf]) if wolf in pack else None
        
        Let's call that function with good types:
        
        .. code-block:: python
        
           >>> law_of_the_jungle(wolf='Akela', pack={'Akela': 'alone', 'Raksha': 'protection'})
           ('Akela', 'alone')
        
        Good function. Let's call it again with bad types:
        
        .. code-block:: python
        
           >>> law_of_the_jungle(wolf='Akela', pack=['Akela', 'Raksha'])
           Traceback (most recent call last):
             File "<ipython-input-10-7763b15e5591>", line 1, in <module>
               law_of_the_jungle(wolf='Akela', pack=['Akela', 'Raksha'])
             File "<string>", line 22, in __law_of_the_jungle_beartyped__
           beartype.roar.BeartypeCallTypeParamException: @beartyped law_of_the_jungle() parameter pack=['Akela', 'Raksha'] not a <class 'dict'>.
        
        The ``beartype.roar`` submodule publishes exceptions raised at both decoration
        time by ``@beartype`` and at runtime by wrappers generated by ``@beartype``. In
        this case, a runtime type exception describing the improperly typed ``pack``
        parameter is raised.
        
        Good function! Let's call it again with good types exposing a critical issue in
        this function's implementation and/or return type annotation:
        
        .. code-block:: python
        
           >>> law_of_the_jungle(wolf='Leela', pack={'Akela': 'alone', 'Raksha': 'protection'})
           Traceback (most recent call last):
             File "<ipython-input-10-7763b15e5591>", line 1, in <module>
               law_of_the_jungle(wolf='Leela', pack={'Akela': 'alone', 'Raksha': 'protection'})
             File "<string>", line 28, in __law_of_the_jungle_beartyped__
           beartype.roar.BeartypeCallTypeReturnException: @beartyped law_of_the_jungle() return value None not a <class 'tuple'>.
        
        *Bad function.* Let's conveniently resolve this by permitting this function to
        return either a tuple or ``None`` as `detailed below <Unions of Types_>`__:
        
        .. code-block:: python
        
           >>> from beartype.cave import NoneType
           >>> @beartype
           ... def law_of_the_jungle(wolf: str, pack: dict) -> (tuple, NoneType):
           ...     return (wolf, pack[wolf]) if wolf in pack else None
           >>> law_of_the_jungle(wolf='Leela', pack={'Akela': 'alone', 'Raksha': 'protection'})
           None
        
        The ``beartype.cave`` submodule publishes generic types suitable for use with
        the ``@beartype`` decorator and anywhere else you might need them. In this
        case, the type of the ``None`` singleton is imported from this submodule and
        listed in addition to ``tuple`` as an allowed return type from this function.
        
        Note that usage of the ``beartype.cave`` submodule is entirely optional (but
        more efficient and convenient than most alternatives). In this case, the type
        of the ``None`` singleton can also be accessed directly as ``type(None)`` and
        listed in place of ``NoneType`` above: e.g.,
        
        .. code-block:: python
        
           >>> @beartype
           ... def law_of_the_jungle(wolf: str, pack: dict) -> (tuple, type(None)):
           ...     return (wolf, pack[wolf]) if wolf in pack else None
           >>> law_of_the_jungle(wolf='Leela', pack={'Akela': 'alone', 'Raksha': 'protection'})
           None
        
        Of course, the ``beartype.cave`` submodule also publishes types *not*
        accessible directly like ``RegexCompiledType`` (i.e., the type of all compiled
        regular expressions). All else being equal, ``beartype.cave`` is preferable.
        
        Good function! The type hints applied to this function now accurately document
        this function's API. All's well that ends typed well. Suck it, `Shere Khan`_.
        
        Arbitrary Types
        ---------------
        
        Everything above also extends to:
        
        * **Arbitrary types** like user-defined classes and stock classes in the Python
          stdlib (e.g., ``argparse.ArgumentParser``) – all of which are also trivially
          type-checked by annotating parameters and return values with those types.
        * **Arbitrary callables** like instance methods, class methods, static methods,
          and generator functions and methods – all of which are also trivially
          type-checked with the ``@beartype`` decorator.
        
        Let's declare a motley crew of beartyped callables doing various silly things
        in a strictly typed manner, *just 'cause*:
        
        .. code-block:: python
        
           from beartype import beartype
           from beartype.cave import GeneratorType, IterableType, NoneType
        
           class MaximsOfBaloo(object):
               @beartype
               def __init__(self, sayings: IterableType):
                   self.sayings = sayings
        
           @beartype
           def inform_baloo(maxims: MaximsOfBaloo) -> GeneratorType:
               for saying in maxims.sayings:
                   yield saying
        
        For genericity, the ``MaximsOfBaloo`` class initializer accepts *any* generic
        iterable (via the ``beartype.cave.IterableType`` tuple listing all valid
        iterable types) rather than an overly specific ``list`` or ``tuple`` type. Your
        users may thank you later.
        
        For specificity, the ``inform_baloo`` generator function has been explicitly
        annotated to return a ``beartype.cave.GeneratorType`` (i.e., the type returned
        by functions and methods containing at least one ``yield`` statement). Type
        safety brings good fortune for the New Year.
        
        Let's iterate over that generator with good types:
        
        .. code-block:: python
        
           >>> maxims = MaximsOfBaloo(sayings={
           ...     '''If ye find that the Bullock can toss you,
           ...           or the heavy-browed Sambhur can gore;
           ...      Ye need not stop work to inform us:
           ...           we knew it ten seasons before.''',
           ...     '''“There is none like to me!” says the Cub
           ...           in the pride of his earliest kill;
           ...      But the jungle is large and the Cub he is small.
           ...           Let him think and be still.''',
           ... })
           >>> for maxim in inform_baloo(maxims): print(maxim.splitlines()[-1])
                  Let him think and be still.
                  we knew it ten seasons before.
        
        Good generator. Let's call it again with bad types:
        
        .. code-block:: python
        
           >>> for maxim in inform_baloo([
           ...     'Oppress not the cubs of the stranger,',
           ...     '     but hail them as Sister and Brother,',
           ... ]): print(maxim.splitlines()[-1])
           Traceback (most recent call last):
             File "<ipython-input-10-7763b15e5591>", line 30, in <module>
               '     but hail them as Sister and Brother,',
             File "<string>", line 12, in __inform_baloo_beartyped__
           beartype.roar.BeartypeCallTypeParamException: @beartyped inform_baloo() parameter maxims=['Oppress not the cubs of the stranger,', '     but hail them as Sister and ...'] not a <class '__main__.MaximsOfBaloo'>.
        
        Good generator! The type hints applied to these callables now accurately
        document their respective APIs. Thanks to the pernicious magic of beartype, all
        ends typed well... *yet again.*
        
        Unions of Types
        ---------------
        
        That's all typed well, but everything above only applies to parameters and
        return values constrained to *singular* types. In practice, parameters and
        return values are often relaxed to any of *multiple* types referred to as
        **unions of types.** :sup:`You can thank set theory for the jargon... unless
        you hate set theory. Then it's just our fault.`
        
        Unions of types are trivially type-checked by annotating parameters and return
        values with tuples containing those types. Let's declare another beartyped
        function accepting either a mapping *or* a string and returning either another
        function *or* an integer:
        
        .. code-block:: python
        
           from beartype import beartype
           from beartype.cave import FunctionType, IntType, MappingType
        
           @beartype
           def toomai_of_the_elephants(memory: (str, MappingType)) -> (
               IntType, FunctionType):
               return len(memory) if isinstance(memory, str) else lambda key: memory[key]
        
        For genericity, the ``toomai_of_the_elephants`` function accepts *any* generic
        integer (via the ``beartype.cave.IntType`` abstract base class (ABC) matching
        both builtin integers and third-party integers from frameworks like NumPy_ and
        SymPy_) rather than an overly specific ``int`` type. The API you relax may very
        well be your own.
        
        Let's call that function with good types:
        
        .. code-block:: python
        
           >>> memory_of_kala_nag = {
           ...     'remember': 'I will remember what I was, I am sick of rope and chain—',
           ...     'strength': 'I will remember my old strength and all my forest affairs.',
           ...     'not sell': 'I will not sell my back to man for a bundle of sugar-cane:',
           ...     'own kind': 'I will go out to my own kind, and the wood-folk in their lairs.',
           ...     'morning':  'I will go out until the day, until the morning break—',
           ...     'caress':   'Out to the wind’s untainted kiss, the water’s clean caress;',
           ...     'forget':   'I will forget my ankle-ring and snap my picket stake.',
           ...     'revisit':  'I will revisit my lost loves, and playmates masterless!',
           ... }
           >>> toomai_of_the_elephants(memory_of_kala_nag['remember'])
           56
           >>> toomai_of_the_elephants(memory_of_kala_nag)('remember')
           'I will remember what I was, I am sick of rope and chain—'
        
        Good function. Let's call it again with a tastelessly bad type:
        
        .. code-block:: python
        
           >>> toomai_of_the_elephants(0xDEADBEEF)
           Traceback (most recent call last):
             File "<ipython-input-7-e323f8d6a4a0>", line 1, in <module>
               toomai_of_the_elephants(0xDEADBEEF)
             File "<string>", line 12, in __toomai_of_the_elephants_beartyped__
           BeartypeCallTypeParamException: @beartyped toomai_of_the_elephants() parameter memory=3735928559 not a (<class 'str'>, <class 'collections.abc.Mapping'>).
        
        Good function! The type hints applied to this callable now accurately documents
        its API. All ends typed well... *still again and again.*
        
        Optional Types
        ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
        
        That's also all typed well, but everything above only applies to *mandatory*
        parameters and return values whose types are never ``NoneType``. In practice,
        parameters and return values are often relaxed to optionally accept any of
        multiple types including ``NoneType`` referred to as **optional types.**
        
        Optional types are trivially type-checked by annotating optional parameters
        (parameters whose values default to ``None``) and optional return values
        (callables returning ``None`` rather than raising exceptions in edge cases)
        with the ``NoneTypeOr`` tuple factory indexed by those types or tuples of
        types.
        
        Let's declare another beartyped function accepting either an enumeration type
        *or* ``None`` and returning either an enumeration member *or* ``None``:
        
        .. code-block:: python
        
           from beartype import beartype
           from beartype.cave import EnumType, EnumMemberType, NoneTypeOr
           from enum import Enum
        
           class Lukannon(Enum):
               WINTER_WHEAT = 'The Beaches of Lukannon—the winter wheat so tall—'
               SEA_FOG      = 'The dripping, crinkled lichens, and the sea-fog drenching all!'
               PLAYGROUND   = 'The platforms of our playground, all shining smooth and worn!'
               HOME         = 'The Beaches of Lukannon—the home where we were born!'
               MATES        = 'I met my mates in the morning, a broken, scattered band.'
               CLUB         = 'Men shoot us in the water and club us on the land;'
               DRIVE        = 'Men drive us to the Salt House like silly sheep and tame,'
               SEALERS      = 'And still we sing Lukannon—before the sealers came.'
        
           @beartype
           def tell_the_deep_sea_viceroys(story: NoneTypeOr[EnumType] = None) -> (
               NoneTypeOr[EnumMemberType]):
               return story if story is None else list(story.__members__.values())[-1]
        
        For efficiency, the ``NoneTypeOr`` tuple factory creates, caches, and returns
        new tuples of types appending ``NoneType`` to the original types and tuples of
        types it's indexed with. Since efficiency is good, ``NoneTypeOr`` is also good.
        
        Let's call that function with good types:
        
        .. code-block:: python
        
           >>> tell_the_deep_sea_viceroys(Lukannon)
           <Lukannon.SEALERS: 'And still we sing Lukannon—before the sealers came.'>
           >>> tell_the_deep_sea_viceroys()
           None
        
        You may now be pondering to yourself grimly in the dark: "...but could we not
        already do this just by manually annotating optional types with tuples
        containing ``NoneType``?"
        
        You would, of course, be correct. Let's grimly redeclare the same function
        accepting and returning the same types – only annotated with ``NoneType``
        rather than ``NoneTypeOr``:
        
        .. code-block:: python
        
           from beartype import beartype
           from beartype.cave import EnumType, EnumMemberType, NoneType
        
           @beartype
           def tell_the_deep_sea_viceroys(story: (EnumType, NoneType) = None) -> (
               (EnumMemberType, NoneType)):
               return list(story.__members__.values())[-1] if story is not None else None
        
        This manual approach has the same exact effect as the prior factoried approach
        with one exception: the factoried approach efficiently caches and reuses tuples
        over every annotated type, whereas the manual approach inefficiently recreates
        tuples for each annotated type. For small codebases, that difference is
        negligible; for large codebases, that difference is still probably negligible.
        Still, "waste not want not" is the maxim we type our lives by here.
        
        Naturally, the ``NoneTypeOr`` tuple factory accepts tuples of types as well.
        Let's declare another beartyped function accepting either an enumeration type,
        enumeration type member, or ``None`` and returning either an enumeration type,
        enumeration type member, or ``None``:
        
        .. code-block:: python
        
           from beartype import beartype
           from beartype.cave import EnumType, EnumMemberType, NoneTypeOr
        
           EnumOrEnumMemberType = (EnumType, EnumMemberType)
        
           @beartype
           def sang_them_up_the_beach(
               woe: NoneTypeOr[EnumOrEnumMemberType] = None) -> (
               NoneTypeOr[EnumOrEnumMemberType]):
               return woe if isinstance(woe, NoneTypeOr[EnumMemberType]) else (
                   list(woe.__members__.values())[-1])
        
        Let's call that function with good types:
        
        .. code-block:: python
        
           >>> sang_them_up_the_beach(Lukannon)
           <Lukannon.SEALERS: 'And still we sing Lukannon—before the sealers came.'>
           >>> sang_them_up_the_beach()
           None
        
        Behold! The terrifying power of the ``NoneTypeOr`` tuple factory, resplendent
        in its highly over-optimized cache utilization.
        
        Decoration
        ==========
        
        Let's take a deep dive into the deep end of runtime type checking – the
        ``beartype`` way. In this subsection, we show code generated by the
        ``@beartype`` decorator in real-world use cases and tell why that code is the
        fastest possible code type-checking those cases.
        
        Identity Decoration
        -------------------
        
        We begin by wading into the torpid waters of the many ways ``beartype`` avoids
        doing any work whatsoever, because laziness is the virtue we live by. The
        reader may recall that the fastest decorator at decoration- *and* call-time is
        the **identity decorator** returning its decorated callable unmodified: e.g.,
        
        .. code-block:: python
        
           from collections.abc import Callable
        
           def identity_decorator(func: Callable): -> Callable:
               return func
        
        ``beartype`` silently reduces to the identity decorator whenever it can, which
        is surprisingly often. Our three weapons are laziness, surprise, ruthless
        efficiency, and an almost fanatical devotion to constant-time type checking.
        
        Unconditional Identity Decoration
        ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
        
        Let's define a trivial function annotated by *no* type hints:
        
        .. code-block:: python
        
           def law_of_the_jungle(strike_first_and_then_give_tongue):
               return strike_first_and_then_give_tongue
        
        Let's decorate that function by ``@beartype`` and verify that ``@beartype``
        reduced to the identity decorator by returning that function unmodified:
        
        .. code-block:: python
        
           >>> from beartype import beartype
           >>> beartype(law_of_the_jungle) is law_of_the_jungle
           True
        
        We've verified that ``@beartype`` reduces to the identity decorator when
        decorating unannotated callables. That's but the tip of the iceberg, though.
        ``@beartype`` unconditionally reduces to a noop when:
        
        * The decorated callable is itself decorated by the `PEP 484`_-compliant
          `@typing.no_type_check`_ decorator.
        * The decorated callable has already been decorated by ``@beartype``.
        * Interpreter-wide optimization is enabled: e.g.,
        
          * `CPython is invoked with the "-O" command-line option <-O_>`__.
          * `The "PYTHONOPTIMIZE" environment variable is set <PYTHONOPTIMIZE_>`__.
        
        Shallow Identity Decoration
        ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
        
        Let's define a trivial function annotated by the `PEP 484`_-compliant
        typing.Any_ type hint:
        
        .. code-block:: python
        
           from typing import Any
        
           def law_of_the_jungle_2(never_order_anything_without_a_reason: Any) -> Any:
               return never_order_anything_without_a_reason
        
        Again, let's decorate that function by ``@beartype`` and verify that
        ``@beartype`` reduced to the identity decorator by returning that function
        unmodified:
        
        .. code-block:: python
        
           >>> from beartype import beartype
           >>> beartype(law_of_the_jungle_2) is law_of_the_jungle_2
           True
        
        We've verified that ``@beartype`` reduces to the identity decorator when
        decorating callables annotated by typing.Any_ – a novel category of type hint
        we refer to as **shallowly ignorable type hints** (known to be ignorable by
        constant-time lookup in a predefined frozen set). That's but the snout of the
        crocodile, though. ``@beartype`` conditionally reduces to a noop when *all*
        type hints annotating the decorated callable are shallowly ignorable. These
        include:
        
        * object_, the root superclass of Python's class hierarchy. Since all objects
          are instances of object_, object_ conveys no meaningful constraints as a type
          hint and is thus shallowly ignorable.
        * typing.Any_, equivalent to object_.
        * typing.Generic_, equivalent to ``typing.Generic[typing.Any]``, which conveys
          no meaningful constraints as a type hint and is thus shallowly ignorable.
        * typing.Protocol_, equivalent to ``typing.Protocol[typing.Any]`` and shallowly
          ignorable for similar reasons.
        * typing.Union_, equivalent to ``typing.Union[typing.Any]``, equivalent to
          ``Any``.
        * typing.Optional_, equivalent to ``typing.Optional[typing.Any]``, equivalent
          to ``Union[Any, type(None)]``. Since any union subscripted by ignorable type
          hints is itself ignorable, [#union_ignorable]_ typing.Optional_ is shallowly
          ignorable as well.
        
        .. [#union_ignorable]
           Unions are only as narrow as their widest subscripted argument. However,
           ignorable type hints are ignorable *because* they are maximally wide.
           Unions subscripted by ignorable arguments are thus the widest possible
           unions, conveying no meaningful constraints and thus themselves ignorable.
        
        Deep Identity Decoration
        ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
        
        Let's define a trivial function annotated by a non-trivial `PEP 484`_-, `585
        <PEP 585_>`__- and `593 <PEP 593_>`__-compliant type hint that superficially
        *appears* to convey meaningful constraints:
        
        .. code-block:: python
        
           from typing import Annotated, NewType, Union
        
           hint = Union[str, list[int], NewType('MetaType', Annotated[object, 53])]
           def law_of_the_jungle_3(bring_them_to_the_pack_council: hint) -> hint:
               return bring_them_to_the_pack_council
        
        Despite appearances, it can be shown by exhaustive (and frankly exhausting)
        reduction that that hint is actually ignorable. Let's decorate that function by
        ``@beartype`` and verify that ``@beartype`` reduced to the identity decorator
        by returning that function unmodified:
        
        .. code-block:: python
        
           >>> from beartype import beartype
           >>> beartype(law_of_the_jungle_3) is law_of_the_jungle_3
           True
        
        We've verified that ``@beartype`` reduces to the identity decorator when
        decorating callables annotated by the above object – a novel category of type
        hint we refer to as **deeply ignorable type hints** (known to be ignorable only
        by recursive linear-time inspection of subscripted arguments). That's but the
        trunk of the elephant, though. ``@beartype`` conditionally reduces to a noop
        when *all* type hints annotating the decorated callable are deeply ignorable.
        These include:
        
        * Parametrizations of typing.Generic_ and typing.Protocol_ by type variables.
          Since typing.Generic_, typing.Protocol_, *and* type variables all fail to
          convey any meaningful constraints in and of themselves, these
          parametrizations are safely ignorable in all contexts.
        * Calls to typing.NewType_ passed an ignorable type hint.
        * Subscriptions of typing.Annotated_ whose first argument is ignorable.
        * Subscriptions of typing.Optional_ and typing.Union_ by at least one ignorable
          argument.
        
        Constant Decoration
        -------------------
        
        We continue by trundling into the turbid waters out at sea, where ``beartype``
        reluctantly performs its minimal amount of work with a heavy sigh.
        
        Constant Builtin Type Decoration
        ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
        
        Let's define a trivial function annotated by type hints that are builtin types:
        
        .. code-block:: python
        
           from beartype import beartype
        
           @beartype
           def law_of_the_jungle_4(he_must_be_spoken_for_by_at_least_two: int):
               return he_must_be_spoken_for_by_at_least_two
        
        Let's see the wrapper function ``@beartype`` dynamically generated from that:
        
        .. code-block:: python
        
           def __beartyped_law_of_the_jungle_4(
               *args,
               __beartype_func=__beartype_func,
               __beartypistry=__beartypistry,
               **kwargs
           ):
               # Localize the number of passed positional arguments for efficiency.
               __beartype_args_len = len(args)
               # Localize this positional or keyword parameter if passed *OR* to the
               # sentinel value "__beartypistry" guaranteed to never be passed otherwise.
               __beartype_pith_0 = (
                   args[0] if __beartype_args_len > 0 else
                   kwargs.get('he_must_be_spoken_for_by_at_least_two', __beartypistry)
               )
           
               # If this parameter was passed...
               if __beartype_pith_0 is not __beartypistry:
                   # Type-check this passed parameter or return value against this
                   # PEP-compliant type hint.
                   if not isinstance(__beartype_pith_0, int):
                       __beartype_raise_pep_call_exception(
                           func=__beartype_func,
                           pith_name='he_must_be_spoken_for_by_at_least_two',
                           pith_value=__beartype_pith_0,
                       )
           
               # Call this function with all passed parameters and return the value
               # returned from this call.
               return __beartype_func(*args, **kwargs)
        
        Let's dismantle this bit by bit:
        
        * The code comments above are verbatim as they appear in the generated code.
        * ``__beartyped_law_of_the_jungle_4()`` is the ad-hoc function name
          ``@beartype`` assigned this wrapper function.
        * ``__beartype_func`` is the original ``law_of_the_jungle_4()`` function.
        * ``__beartypistry`` is a thread-safe global registry of all types, tuples of
          types, and forward references to currently undeclared types visitable from
          type hints annotating callables decorated by ``@beartype``. We'll see more
          about the ``__beartypistry`` in a moment. For know, just know that
          ``__beartypistry`` is a private singleton of the ``beartype`` package. This
          object is frequently accessed and thus localized to the body of this wrapper
          rather than accessed as a global variable, which would be mildly slower.
        * ``__beartype_pith_0`` is the value of the first passed parameter, regardless
          of whether that parameter is passed as a positional or keyword argument. If
          unpassed, the value defaults to the ``__beartypistry``. Since *no* caller
          should access (let alone pass) that object, that object serves as an
          efficient sentinel value enabling us to discern passed from unpassed
          parameters. ``beartype`` internally favours the term "pith" (which we
          absolutely just made up) to transparently refer to the arbitrary object
          currently being type-checked against its associated type hint.
        * ``isinstance(__beartype_pith_0, int)`` tests whether the value passed for
          this parameter satisfies the type hint annotating this parameter.
        * ``__beartype_raise_pep_call_exception()`` raises a human-readable exception
          if this value fails this type-check.
        
        So good so far. But that's easy. Let's delve deeper.
        
        Constant Non-Builtin Type Decoration
        ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
        
        Let's define a trivial function annotated by type hints that are pure-Python
        classes rather than builtin types:
        
        .. code-block:: python
        
           from argparse import ArgumentParser
           from beartype import beartype
        
           @beartype
           def law_of_the_jungle_5(a_cub_may_be_bought_at_a_price: ArgumentParser):
               return a_cub_may_be_bought_at_a_price
        
        Let's see the wrapper function ``@beartype`` dynamically generated from that:
        
        .. code-block:: python
        
           def __beartyped_law_of_the_jungle_5(
               *args,
               __beartype_func=__beartype_func,
               __beartypistry=__beartypistry,
               **kwargs
           ):
               # Localize the number of passed positional arguments for efficiency.
               __beartype_args_len = len(args)
               # Localize this positional or keyword parameter if passed *OR* to the
               # sentinel value "__beartypistry" guaranteed to never be passed otherwise.
               __beartype_pith_0 = (
                   args[0] if __beartype_args_len > 0 else
                   kwargs.get('a_cub_may_be_bought_at_a_price', __beartypistry)
               )
           
               # If this parameter was passed...
               if __beartype_pith_0 is not __beartypistry:
                   # Type-check this passed parameter or return value against this
                   # PEP-compliant type hint.
                   if not isinstance(__beartype_pith_0, __beartypistry['argparse.ArgumentParser']):
                       __beartype_raise_pep_call_exception(
                           func=__beartype_func,
                           pith_name='a_cub_may_be_bought_at_a_price',
                           pith_value=__beartype_pith_0,
                       )
           
               # Call this function with all passed parameters and return the value
               # returned from this call.
               return __beartype_func(*args, **kwargs)
        
        The result is largely the same. The only meaningful difference is the
        type-check on line 20:
        
        .. code-block:: python
        
                   if not isinstance(__beartype_pith_0, __beartypistry['argparse.ArgumentParser']):
        
        Since we annotated that function with a pure-Python class rather than builtin
        type, ``@beartype`` registered that class with the ``__beartypistry`` at
        decoration time and then subsequently looked that class up with its
        fully-qualified classname at call time to perform this type-check.
        
        So good so far... so what! Let's spelunk harder.

               return __beartype_func(*args, **kwargs)
        
        We are still within the realm of normalcy. Correctly detecting this type hint
        to be subscripted by an ignorable argument, ``@beartype`` only bothered
        type-checking this parameter to be an instance of this builtin type:

                   if not isinstance(__beartype_pith_0, list):

               return __beartype_func(*args, **kwargs)
        
        We have now diverged from normalcy. Let's dismantle this iota by iota:
        
        * ``__beartype_random_int`` is a pseudo-random unsigned 32-bit integer whose
          bit length intentionally corresponds to the `number of bits generated by each
          call to Python's C-based Mersenne Twister <random twister_>`__ internally
          performed by the random.getrandbits_ function generating this integer.
          Exceeding this length would cause that function to internally perform that
          call multiple times for no gain. Since the cost of generating integers to
          this length is the same as generating integers of smaller lengths, this
          length is preferred. Since most sequences are likely to contain fewer items
          than this integer, pseudo-random sequence items are indexable by taking the
          modulo of this integer with the sizes of those sequences. For big sequences
          containing more than this number of items, ``beartype`` deeply type-checks
          leading items with indices in this range while ignoring trailing items. Given
          the practical infeasibility of storing big sequences in memory, this seems an
          acceptable real-world tradeoff. Suck it, big sequences!
        * As before, ``@beartype`` first type-checks this parameter to be a list.
        * ``@beartype`` then type-checks this parameter to either be:
        
          * ``not __beartype_pith_0``, an empty list.
          * ``isinstance(__beartype_pith_0[__beartype_random_int %
            len(__beartype_pith_0)], str)``, a non-empty list whose pseudo-randomly
            indexed list item satisfies this nested builtin type.
        
        Well, that escalated quickly.

          len(__beartype_pith_0)]``, a `PEP 572`_-style assignment expression
          localizing repeatedly accessed random items of the first nested list for
          efficiency.
        * ``__beartype_pith_2 := __beartype_pith_1[__beartype_random_int %
          len(__beartype_pith_1)]``, a similar expression localizing repeatedly
          accessed random items of the second nested list.
        * The same ``__beartype_random_int`` pseudo-randomly indexes all three lists.
        * Under older Python interpreters lacking `PEP 572`_ support, ``@beartype``
          generates equally valid (albeit less efficient) code repeating each
          nested list item access.
        
        In the kingdom of the linear-time runtime type checkers, the constant-time
        runtime type checker really stands out like a sore giant squid, doesn't it?

        And thanks for merely reading this! Like all open-source software, ``beartype``
        thrives on community contributions, activity, and interest. *This means you,
        stalwart Python hero.*
        
        ``beartype`` has two problem spots (listed below in order of decreasing
        importance and increasing complexity) that could *always* benefit from a
        volunteer army of good GitHub Samaritans. Let's take this from the top.
        
        Moar Depth
        ----------
        
        So, you want to help ``beartype`` deeply type-check even *more* type hints than
        she already does? Let us help you help us, because you are awesome.
        
        First, an egregious lore dump. It's commonly assumed that ``beartype`` only
        internally implements a single type-checker. After all, every *other* static
        and runtime type-checker only internally implements a single type-checker.
        Why would a type-checker internally implement several divergent overlapping
        type-checkers and... what would that even mean? Who would be so vile, cruel,
        and sadistic as to do something like that?
        
        *We would.* ``beartype`` often violates assumptions. This is no exception.
        Externally, of course, ``beartype`` presents itself as a single type-checker.
        Internally, ``beartype`` is implemented as a two-phase series of orthogonal
        type-checkers. Why? Because efficiency, which is the reason we are all here.
        These type-checkers are (in the order that callables decorated by ``beartype``
        perform them at runtime):
        
        #. **Testing phase.** In this fast first pass, each callable decorated by
           ``@beartype`` only *tests* whether all parameters passed to and values
           returned from the current call to that callable satisfy all type hints
           annotating that callable. This phase does *not* raise human-readable
           exceptions (in the event that one or more parameters or return values fails
           to satisfy these hints). ``@beartype`` highly optimizes this phase by
           dynamically generating one wrapper function wrapping each decorated callable
           with unique pure-Python performing these tests in O(1) constant-time. This
           phase is *always* unconditionally performed by code dynamically generated
           and returned by:
        
           * The fast-as-lightning ``pep_code_check_hint()`` function declared in the
             `"beartype._decor._code._pep._pephint" submodule <beartype pephint_>`__,
             which generates memoized O(1) code type-checking an arbitrary object
             against an arbitrary PEP-compliant type hint by iterating over all child
             hints nested in that hint with a highly optimized breadth-first search
             (BFS) leveraging extreme caching, fragile cleverness, and other salacious
             micro-optimizations.
        
        #. **Error phase.** In this slow second pass, each call to a callable decorated
           by ``@beartype`` that fails the fast first pass (due to one or more
           parameters or return values failing to satisfy these hints) recursively
           discovers the exact underlying cause of that failure and raises a
           human-readable exception precisely detailing that cause. ``@beartype`` does
           *not* optimize this phase whatsoever. Whereas the implementation of the
           first phase is uniquely specific to each decorated callable and constrained
           to O(1) constant-time non-recursive operation, the implementation of the
           second phase is generically shared between all decorated callables and
           generalized to O(n) linear-time recursive operation. Efficiency no longer
           matters when you're raising exceptions. Exception handling is slow in any
           language and doubly slow in dynamically-typed (and mostly interpreted)
           languages like Python, which means that performance is mostly a non-concern
           in "cold" code paths guaranteed to raise exceptions. This phase is only
           *conditionally* performed when the first phase fails by:
        
           * The slow-as-molasses ``raise_pep_call_exception()`` function declared in
             the `"beartype._decor._code._pep._error.peperror" submodule <beartype
             peperror_>`__, which generates human-readable exceptions after performing
             unmemoized O(n) type-checking of an arbitrary object against a
             PEP-compliant type hint by recursing over all child hints nested in that
             hint with an unoptimized recursive algorithm prioritizing debuggability,
             readability, and maintainability.
        
        This separation of concerns between performant O(1) *testing* on the one hand
        and perfect O(n) *error handling* on the other preserves both runtime
        performance and readable errors at a cost of developer pain. This is good!
        :sup:`...what?`
        
        Secondly, the same separation of concerns also complicates the development of
        ``@beartype``. This is bad. Since ``@beartype`` internally implements two
        divergent type-checkers, deeply type-checking a new category of type hint
        requires adding that support to (wait for it) two divergent type-checkers –
        which, being fundamentally distinct codebases sharing little code in common,
        requires violating the `Don't Repeat Yourself (DRY) principle <DRY_>`__ by
        reinventing the wheel in the second type-checker. Such is the high price of
        high-octane performance. You probably thought this would be easier and funner.
        So did we.
        
        Thirdly, this needs to be tested. After surmounting the above roadblocks by
        deeply type-checking that new category of type hint in *both* type-checkers,
        you'll now add one or more unit tests exhaustively exercising that checking.
        Thankfully, we already did all of the swole lifting for you. All *you* need to
        do is add at least one PEP-compliant type hint, one object satisfying that
        hint, and one object *not* satisfying that hint to:
        
        * A new ``PepHintMetadata`` object in the existing tuple passed to the
          ``data_module.HINTS_PEP_META.extend(...)`` call in the existing test data
          submodule for this PEP residing under the
          `"beartype_test.unit.data.hint.pep.proposal" subpackage <beartype test data
          pep_>`__. For example, if this is a `PEP 484`_-compliant type hint, add that
          hint and associated metadata to the
          `"beartype_test.unit.data.hint.pep.proposal.data_hintpep484" submodule
          <beartype test data pep 484_>`__.
        
        You're done! *Praise Guido.*
        
        Moar Compliance
        ---------------
        
        So, you want to help ``beartype`` comply with even *more* `Python Enhancement
        Proposals (PEPs) <PEP 0_>`__ than she already complies with? Let us help you
        help us, because you are young and idealistic and you mean well.
        
        You will need a spare life to squander. A clone would be most handy. In short,
        you will want to at least:
        
        * Define a new utility submodule for this PEP residing under the
          `"beartype._util.hint.pep.proposal" subpackage <beartype util pep_>`__
          implementing general-purpose validators, testers, getters, and other
          ancillary utility functions required to detect and handle *all* type hints
          compliant with this PEP. For efficiency, utility functions performing
          iteration or other expensive operations should be memoized via our internal
          `@callable_cached`_ decorator.
        * Define a new data utility submodule for this PEP residing under the
          `"beartype._util.hint.data.pep.proposal" subpackage <beartype util data
          pep_>`__ adding various signs (i.e., arbitrary objects uniquely identifying
          type hints compliant with this PEP) to various global variables defined by
          the parent `"beartype._util.hint.data.pep.utilhintdatapep" submodule
          <_beartype util data pep parent>`__.
        * Define a new test data submodule for this PEP residing under the
          `"beartype_test.unit.data.hint.pep.proposal" subpackage <beartype test data
          pep_>`__.
        
        You're probably not done by a long shot! But the above should at least get you
        fitfully started, though long will you curse our names. *Praise Cleese.*
