Uniqueness Type - Relationship To Linear Typing

Relationship To Linear Typing

The term is often used interchangeably with linear type, although often what is being discussed is technically uniqueness typing, as actual linear typing allows a non-linear value to be "cast" to a linear form, while still retaining multiple references to it. Uniqueness guarantees that a value has no other references to it, while linearity guarantees that no more references can be made to a value.

    “Women, because of their colonial relationship to men, have to fight for their own independence.

Only the independent woman can be truly effective in the larger revolutionary struggle.”
