//! This crate handles the user facing autodiff macro. For each `#[autodiff(...)]` attribute,
//! we create an [`AutoDiffItem`] which contains the source and target function names. The source
//! is the function to which the autodiff attribute is applied, and the target is the function
//! getting generated by us (with a name given by the user as the first autodiff arg).

/// are a hack to support higher order derivatives. We need to compute first order derivatives
/// before we compute second order derivatives, otherwise we would differentiate our placeholder
/// functions. The proper solution is to recognize and resolve this DAG of autodiff invocations,
/// as it's already done in the C++ and Julia frontend of Enzyme.
