[Haskell-cafe] type level program

2010-10-25 Thread Patrick Browne
Hi, I hypothesize that at type level Haskell offers a form of equational logic. At type level the following program[1] could be interpreted as a first order program in equational logic where; 1)Data types represent declarations of constructors (both constants and functions) 2)Type synonyms

Not exactly answering your question, but just in case you hadn't checked, there are a few packages for type level natural numbers on hackage, which do the same things as the program below. The packages are: - type-level-natural-number and co by Gregory Crosswhite, and - type-level-numers by
