Sorry, that was:

-type non_neg_float() :: float().

Hello!

Unfortunately Dialyzer does not support it (even constants are generalized to any float, typwise). Consequentially, the type language does tnot support it.
You can maybe try:

-type define non_neg_float() :: float().

This will help you documentation-wise and also (though in a somewhat limited way) Dialyzer-wise. If you use this type PropEr-wise however, you will get positive values, which you will need to filter...

Is it possible to define non_neg_float() type specification somehow?
