algebraic-classes: Conversions between algebraic classes and F-algebras.
Algebraic classes are type classes where all the methods return a value of the same type, which is also the class parameter.
Examples from base
are Num
and Monoid
.
F-algebras are functions f a -> a
, where the functor f
is called the signature, and the type a
the carrier.
This package relates these 2 concepts, and can create conversions between the two using Template Haskell. More specifically, it can generate:
signatures from algebraic classes
instances of algebraic classes from F-algebras.
This is useful because type classes are more commonly used in Haskell than F-algebras, but F-algebras are easier to work with, because they are just functions.
