We provide the data type NonEmpty that allows to store a list-like structure with at least or exactly n elements, where n is fixed in the type in a kind of Peano encoding and is usually small. The datatype is intended to increase safety by making functions total that are partial on plain lists. E.g. on a non-empty list, head and tail are always defined.

There are more such data types like Optional and Empty. Together with NonEmpty you can define a list type for every finite set of admissible list lengths.

The datatype can be combined with Lists, Sequences and Sets (from the containers package).

The package needs only Haskell 98.
