Re: [Haskell-cafe] computation over containers, greatly simplified notation.
Thank you Jason, I have implemented those. https://github.com/nushio3/practice/blob/master/free-objects/zipn-03.hs I implemented what I have wanted. It is forZN in the following code. https://github.com/nushio3/practice/blob/master/free-objects/zipf-05.hs forZN, much like printf, can be used in place of any of the following functions. forLiftZ1 :: Zip f = f a - (a - b) - f bforLiftZ2 :: Zip f = f a - f b - (a - b - c) - f c forLiftZ3 :: Zip f = f a - f b - f c - (a - b - c - d) - f d ...and more... The last example in above code is the usecase of forZN in my mind: to zip several arrays with a long lambda. This pattern occurs frequently in my codes. One drawback of current approach is that we need verbose type annotations like :: V.Vector String in print $ (forZN vd1 vc1 vi1 f_dci_s :: V.Vector String) . Maybe this is because PType carries insufficient type-level information, compared to Reduce and Insert. Now I'm now wondering if we can use ghc-7.6.1's rich kind features such as type-level lists to remove those verbose type annotations. 2012/12/1 Jason Dagit dag...@gmail.com You might find this paper an interesting read: http://www.brics.dk/RS/01/10/ On Fri, Nov 30, 2012 at 4:43 PM, Takayuki Muranushi muranu...@gmail.comwrote: Dear everyone, After a number of attempts [1] I'm starting to think that my initial approach was ill-directed.

Re: [Haskell-cafe] computation over containers, greatly simplified notation.
Dear all, https://github.com/nushio3/practice/blob/master/free-objects/zipf-12.hs I was finally able to remove the verbose type annotations. The point was (1) to let the argument-list carry the type-constructor information, so that only values of the type (v a) can enter the heterogeneous list; data Cons (v :: * - *) a b = Cons a b deriving (Eq, Show) data Nil (v :: * - *) = Nil deriving (Eq, Show) (2) to change the remainder of the program accordingly, and (3) to add the following subtle modification, because instance finder does not attempt to match unknown type a0 to v result, but it does so to result. class Reduce v f vxS result vyS | v f vxS - result vyS where reduce :: v f - vxS - (v result, vyS) ↓ class Reduce v f vxS result vyS | v f vxS - result vyS where reduce :: v f - vxS - (result, vyS) Other samples work with modest type annotations. https://github.com/nushio3/practice/blob/master/free-objects/zipf-13.hs 2012/12/1 Takayuki Muranushi muranu...@gmail.com Thank you Jason, I have implemented those. https://github.com/nushio3/practice/blob/master/free-objects/zipn-03.hs I implemented what I have wanted.
