Implicit paramaters
class IP (x :: Symbol) a | x -> a where Source #
The syntax ?x :: a is desugared into IP "x" a
IP is declared very early, so that libraries can take
advantage of the implicit-call-stack feature
Equality and ordering
The Eq class defines equality (==) and inequality (/=).
All the basic datatypes exported by the Prelude are instances of Eq,
and Eq may be derived for any datatype whose constituents are also
instances of Eq.
The Haskell Report defines no laws for Eq. However, == is customarily
expected to implement an equivalence relationship where two values comparing
equal are indistinguishable by "public" functions, with a "public" function
being one not allowing to see implementation details. For example, for a
type representing non-normalised natural numbers modulo 100, a "public"
function doesn't make the difference between 1 and 201. It is expected to
have the following properties:

class Eq a => Ord a where Source #
The Ord class is used for totally ordered datatypes.
Instances of Ord can be derived for any user-defined datatype whose
constituent types are in Ord. The declared order of the constructors in
the data declaration determines the ordering in derived Ord instances. The
Ordering datatype allows a single comparison to determine the precise
ordering of two objects.
The Haskell Report defines no laws for Ord. However, <= is customarily
expected to implement a non-strict partial order and have the following
properties:
- Transitivity
- if
x <= y && y <= z=True, thenx <= z=True - Reflexivity
x <= x=True- Antisymmetry
- if
x <= y && y <= x=True, thenx == y=True
Note that the following operator interactions are expected to hold:
x >= y=y <= xx < y=x <= y && x /= yx > y=y < xx < y=compare x y == LTx > y=compare x y == GTx == y=compare x y == EQmin x y == if x <= y then x else y=Truemax x y == if x >= y then x else y=True
Note that (7.) and (8.) do not require min and max to return either of
their arguments. The result is merely required to equal one of the
arguments in terms of (==).
Minimal complete definition: either compare or <=.
Using compare can be more efficient for complex types.

Monomorphic equality operators
Matching on class methods (e.g. (==)) in rewrite rules tends to be a bit
fragile. For instance, consider this motivating example from the bytestring
library,
break :: (Word8 -> Bool) -> ByteString -> (ByteString, ByteString)
breakByte :: Word8 -> ByteString -> (ByteString, ByteString)
{-# RULES "break -> breakByte" forall a. break (== x) = breakByte x #-}
Here we have two functions, with breakByte providing an optimized
implementation of break where the predicate is merely testing for equality
with a known Word8. As written, however, this rule will be quite fragile as
the (==) class operation rule may rewrite the predicate before our break
rule has a chance to fire.
For this reason, most of the primitive types in base have Eq and Ord
instances defined in terms of helper functions with inlinings delayed to phase
1. For instance, Word8's Eq instance looks like,
instance Eq Word8 where
(==) = eqWord8
(/=) = neWord8
eqWord8, neWord8 :: Word8 -> Word8 -> Bool
eqWord8 (W8# x) (W8# y) = ...
neWord8 (W8# x) (W8# y) = ...
{-# INLINE [1] eqWord8 #-}
{-# INLINE [1] neWord8 #-}
This allows us to save our break rule above by rewriting it to instead match
against eqWord8,
{-# RULES "break -> breakByte" forall a. break (eqWord8 x) = breakByte x #-}
Currently this is only done for (, ==)(, /=)(, <)(, <=)(,
and >)( for the types in GHC.Word and GHC.Int.>=)
