Vectorise.Generic.Description

Description

Compute a description of the generic representation that we use for a user defined data type.

During vectorisation, we generate a PRepr and PA instance for each user defined data type. The PA dictionary contains methods to convert the user type to and from our generic representation. This module computes a description of what that generic representation is.

data ProdRepr Source #

Describes the representation type of the fields / components of a constructor. If the data constructor has multiple fields then we bundle them together into a generic product type.

Constructors

EmptyProd

Data constructor has no fields.

UnaryProd CompRepr

Data constructor has a single field.

Prod

Data constructor has several fields.

Describes the generic representation of a data type. If the data type has multiple constructors then we bundle them together into a generic sum type.

Constructors

EmptySum

Data type has no data constructors.

UnarySum ConRepr

Sum

Data type has multiple constructors.
