module NNF where
The way I would do this would be to encode as much of the value as I
cared to in the constructors for concepts, rather than just encoding
the top-level constructor.
data Named
data Equal a b
data Negation a
data Top
data Concept t where
CNamed :: String - Concept Named
CEqual :: Concept a - Concept b - Concept (Equal a b)
CNegation:: Concept a - Concept (Negation a)
CTop :: Concept Top
Then, I could form a datatype that does not contain a Concept, but
merely certifies that all Concepts of a certain type are in NNF.
data NNF x where
NNFnamed :: NNF Named
NNFequal :: NNF a - NNF b - NNF (Equal a b)
NNFnegateName :: NNF (Negation Named)
NNFnegateTop :: NNF (Negation Top)
Now I have a generic constructor for some Concept of NNF, value
unknown, that encodes a concept and a proof of its NNF-ness.
data NNFConcept = forall t . NNFConcept (Concept t) (NNF t)
And I take a Concept with some value, transform its value somehow, and
get an NNF concept.
nnf :: Concept t - NNFConcept
nnf (CNamed x) = NNFConcept (CNamed x) NNFnamed
nnf (CEqual x y) =
case (nnf x, nnf y) of
(NNFConcept a a', NNFConcept b b') -
NNFConcept (CEqual a b) (NNFequal a' b')
nnf (CNegation (CEqual x y)) =
case (nnf (CNegation x), nnf (CNegation y)) of
(NNFConcept a a', NNFConcept b b') -
NNFConcept (CEqual a b) (NNFequal a' b')
The above function is not total, even for the limited subset of
Concepts discussed above.
By the way, the code you included last time did not compile. I think
you'll probably get a quicker response than my lazy two-day turnaround
if you make sure to run your posted code through Your Favorite
Compiler first.
Hope this helps,
Jim

That was the first trick I'd missed. Then, I could form a datatype that does not contain a Concept, but merely certifies that all Concepts of a certain type are in NNF. This turns out not to be needed if you describe what nnf is in terms of those parameterised datatypes above. You can re-use the same datatype! I had to move the nnf function into a class to get it to compile, which makes the code more verbose, but appart from that I'm quite pleased with the result.

It was a late-at-night thing. I've pasted in my (compiling and working) code below, for anyone that's interested.

[Haskell-cafe] Using GADTs
Hi, I'm trying to get to grips with GADTs, and my first attempt was to convert a simple logic language into negative normal form, while attempting to push the knowledge about what consitutes negative normal form into the types. My code is below. I'm not entirely happy with it, and would appreciate any feedback. The rules are that in nnf, only named concepts, the concept Top and the concept Bottom can be negated. So, I've added three NNFNegation_* constructors capturing these legal cases. Is there a way to use one constructor, that is allowed to 'range over' these three cases and none of the others? I've ended up producing two data types, one for the general form and one for the nnf. Actually, the constraint on what constitutes nnf is fairly obvious - no complex terms are negated. Is there a way to use just the one data type but to describe two levels of constraints - one for the general case, and one for the nnf case? Or is the whole point that you capture each set of constraints in a different data type?
