Subject: Re: primitive library
I'll get something together soon that explains my motivations. The sh
I think the areas in the primitive library demonstrate a part of the array
design space that seems to have gone relatively unexplored in Haskell:
plain old vectors. Unlike the vector library, there is no stream fusion
framework. Unlike the array library, there is no class-based reliance on
fold
Andrew, David
I've seen a lot of traffic about the primitive library, in which you two are
playing a leading role.
Clearly something interesting is going on, but I have not been paying enough
attention to work out what. Maybe lots of unrelated things? Maybe a handful
of closely related things
