- unlines :: ListLike full s => full -> s
- unwords :: ListLike full s => full -> s
- show :: Show a => a -> s

Documentation
class IsString s => StringLike s where Source #
An extension to ListLike for those data types that are similar
to a String. Minimal complete definition is toString and
fromString.

Methods
toString :: s -> String Source #
Converts the structure to a String
lines :: ListLike full s => s -> full Source #
Breaks a string into a list of strings
words :: ListLike full s => s -> full Source #
Breaks a string into a list of words
unlines :: ListLike full s => full -> s Source #
Joins lines
unwords :: ListLike full s => full -> s Source #
Joins words
show :: Show a => a -> s Source #
Generalize the Show method t return any StringLike.
fromStringLike :: StringLike s' => s -> s' Source #
Deprecated: Use fromString . toString or something more efficient using local knowledge
fromText :: StringLike Text => Text -> s Source #
Override this to avoid extra String conversions.
fromLazyText :: StringLike Text => Text -> s Source #
Override this to avoid extra String conversions.
Instances
fromString :: IsString a => String -> a #
