Where does the name comes from? #2

Since you mention tstyche, there is one thing that bothers me : what does "tyche" means?

Is it related to https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tyche?

If it is, it might be interesting to mention it in the documentation or the Readme file maybe?

Good question. Thanks!

Yes, there is a reference to Tyche from mythology.

The name shaped up in early stage of development when I was still using type check instead of current type test.

The internal terminology changed, but it does not contradict with the name. So only the mythological link was left. I felt happy to think that TSTyche brings fortune and prosperity to its users.

I will add this detail to the About page in documentation. Shaping it up right now.
