Description |
The Text.Read library is the canonical library to import for
Read-class facilities. For GHC only, it offers an extended and much
improved Read class, which constitutes a proposed alternative to the
Haskell 98 Read. In particular, writing parsers is easier, and
the parsers are much more efficient.

type ReadS a = String -> [(a, String)] |
A parser for a type a, represented as a function that takes a
String and returns a list of possible parses (a,String) pairs. |
|
Haskell 98 functions |
|
reads :: (Read a) => ReadS a |
|
read :: (Read a) => String -> a |
|
readParen :: Bool -> ReadS a -> ReadS a |
|
lex :: ReadS String |
|
New parsing functions |
|
module Text.ParserCombinators.ReadPrec |
|
data Lexeme |
|
|
lexP :: ReadPrec Lexeme |
Parse a single lexeme |
|
readListDefault :: (Read a) => ReadS [a] |
Use this to define the readList method, if you don't want a special
case (GHC only; for other systems the default suffices). |
|
readListPrecDefault :: (Read a) => ReadPrec [a] |
Use this to define the readListPrec method, if you
don't want a special case (GHC only). |
