How to check that?
You can't check it; it has to be proven for the system. > I'm not following you here, you're saying? > > rule C [a] b d ==> d=Bool That's right. > Are you sure that you're not introducing further "critical pairs"? I don't see how -- there are no new redexes. Instance improvement was already applicable, but now it has a different output. > Maybe, you found a "simple" solution (that would be great) > but I'not 100% convinced yet. > > The problem you're addressing only arises for non-full FDs. > Aren't such cases very rare in practice? My aim is not coverage but simplicity of description, and this version still isn't simple enough. _______________________________________________ Haskell-prime mailing list Haskell-prime@haskell.org http://haskell.org/mailman/listinfo/haskell-prime
