Fixedpoint type

test/libsolidity/syntaxTests/types/rational_number_literal_to_fixed_implicit.sol

ufixed8x2 a = 0.10;
fixed8x1 a =   0.1;

Error: Dynamic exception type: boost::wrapexcept<langutil::UnimplementedFeatureError>

Abi.*: decode, encodePacked, encodeWithSelector, encodeWithSignature

function f(bytes memory b) public pure returns (address payable) {
    (address payable c) = abi.decode(b, (address));
    return c;

Inline assembly

assembly { }

Error: Boogie error: Inline assembly is not supported

Complex selectors

contract C {
     function f() payable public returns (C) {
        return this;

Specification Features

_verifier_count over elements of a mapping

e.g.: we have the following map:

mapping (address => bool) confirmations

and we would like to count the number of elements addr in confirmations such that confirmations[addr] == true
