Converting between strict and lazy ST
Description
This module presents an identical interface to Control.Monad.ST, but the underlying implementation of the state thread is lazy (in the sense that (_|_ >> a is not necessarily equal to _|_).
Synopsis
data ST s a
runST :: (forall s . ST s a) -> a
fixST :: (a -> ST s a) -> ST s a
unsafeInterleaveST :: ST s a -> ST s a
unsafeIOToST :: IO a -> ST s a
stToIO :: ST RealWorld a -> IO a
strictToLazyST :: ST s a -> ST s a
lazyToStrictST :: ST s a -> ST s a
The ST monad
data ST s a
Instances
Functor (ST s)
Monad (ST s)
runST :: (forall s . ST s a) -> a
fixST :: (a -> ST s a) -> ST s a
Unsafe operations
unsafeInterleaveST :: ST s a -> ST s a
unsafeIOToST :: IO a -> ST s a
Converting ST To IO
stToIO :: ST RealWorld a -> IO a
Converting between strict and lazy ST
strictToLazyST :: ST s a -> ST s a
Convert a strict ST computation into a lazy one. The strict state thread passed to strictToLazyST is not performed until the result of the lazy state thread it returns is demanded.
lazyToStrictST :: ST s a -> ST s a
Convert a lazy ST computation into a strict one.
