The bilingual sweep had left some blocks with only their last paragraph
translated, a few with the Chinese inserted inside an English sentence,
and some with a repeated paragraph from a re-applied table. A rewrite of
the coverage checks found them; this fixes every block and restores the
comment separators that a cleanup pass had emptied.
Extends the checker to the module level `//!` docs, the tests, the
examples, and the non-Rust prose comments in the workflow, the manifests
and the shell and Python scripts.
The Delaunay and planetary arguments, the precession, nutation, polar
motion and Earth rotation angles, and the TEME and terrestrial matrices.
This completes the bilingual sweep: every comment block in the workspace
now carries its Chinese counterpart.
The event queue and identifiers, the output records and trace, the scenario
build and parse, and the run facade, including the plain comments inside
the functions.
The error modules across the remaining crates share a shape, so one table
covers them all. Also the inter-satellite link geometry and the mesh
connectivity analysis, including the Menger and Kosaraju notes.
A translation table for the sentences that recur across the error types
and the simple accessors let the same wording be applied everywhere at
once, which both keeps the Chinese consistent and covers a hundred and
twenty-nine sites in a single pass. Routing, topology, access and the radio
frequency crates are now part of the sweep.
The layer is complete at three hundred and sixty two blocks across the
resource, task, schedule, conflict and scheduler crates, including the
swept search and the improvement pass.
Seventy-five comment blocks across the error kinds, the resource model
and the window algebra. The English is unchanged and the Chinese follows
under a blank doc line, as the glossary sets out.
Three measurements, each answering a different question: what one call
costs, how the cost grows with size, and what the other cores save. The
method states the three rules the tools follow, no warm-up, best of several
runs, and cost per unit rather than an absolute figure, so a reader can
reproduce and judge.
The findings are that the numerical kernels are linear and parallelise
well, a day over two thousand satellites costs 0.7 seconds on one core and
81 milliseconds on sixteen, and that interpolation is about ten times
cheaper than propagation. Two combined operations are limited by their
algorithm: greedy planning is quadratically serial, and the duplicate
check on edge insertion squares that quadratic, so threading helps neither.
Eight threads is recommended, since efficiency falls to about half at
sixteen.
Applies the glossary across apsis-math, apsis-time, apsis-leap,
apsis-coord, apsis-geodesy and the five orbit crates that were already
implemented, plus apsis-ephemeris, apsis-maneuver and apsis-orbit. Five
hundred and seven comment blocks now carry the English paragraph and the
Chinese one.
The checker learned to skip a comment that is only a formula, since a bare
symbol has no prose to translate and repeating it in Chinese would be noise.
The SGP4 cross-check still passes, so nothing in the numerical path moved.
Four of the five physics crates are done, 104 of 239 blocks in the layer.
The remaining one is apsis-frames, which holds the IAU 2000 Earth
orientation models and carries the largest number of formulas.
All 180 comment blocks across apsis-core, apsis-units and apsis-math now
carry both languages. The checker confirms no mangled bytes and no English
word left inside a Chinese sentence, two mistakes that occurred while
writing them and are now caught mechanically.
apsis-units and apsis-core are done, 86 of 180 comment blocks in the
layer. The checker in scripts/check-bilingual.py reports which blocks still
lack Chinese, and also catches the two mistakes that are easy to make while
adding a language: a mangled byte sequence, and an English word left inside
a Chinese sentence, which is what happened once in quantity.rs and is now
caught mechanically.
Translations keep terms that have a standard Chinese name in Chinese and
leave proper nouns, abbreviations and method names in English, as the
glossary sets out. The English text is never reworded.
The comment said the inclination was rounded to one decimal place, but
the format prints it at full precision, so 53.25 degrees came out intact
where the comment promised 53.2. The notation is an identifier, so
truncating it would lose information for nothing.
The first crate of the sweep, so the layout can be checked before the
remaining forty. English paragraph, empty doc line, then the Chinese, per
the glossary. Terms with a standard Chinese name use it directly, so
semi-major axis reads 半长轴 rather than carrying the English each time;
Walker, SGP4 and the frame abbreviations stay as they are.
Every comment block in the crate now has both languages, the Display
strings are untouched because translating them would change what a program
prints, and the three formulas the comments state were checked against the
code: the phase offset is 2 pi f / t, the plane spacing 2 pi / p, and the
anomaly spacing 2 pi / (t / p), all of which match.
