About the guards library
------------------------
The guards library (defined in ``semmle.code.cpp.controlflow.Guards``) provides a class `GuardCondition <https://codeql.github.com/codeql-standard-libraries/cpp/semmle/code/cpp/controlflow/Guards.qll/type.Guards$GuardCondition.html>`__ representing Boolean values that are used to make control flow decisions.
