General list processing

zipEqual :: String -> [a] -> [b] -> [(a, b)] Source #

zipWithEqual :: String -> (a -> b -> c) -> [a] -> [b] -> [c] Source #

zipWith3Equal :: String -> (a -> b -> c -> d) -> [a] -> [b] -> [c] -> [d] Source #

zipWith4Equal :: String -> (a -> b -> c -> d -> e) -> [a] -> [b] -> [c] -> [d] -> [e] Source #

zipLazy :: [a] -> [b] -> [(a, b)] Source #

zipLazy is a kind of zip that is lazy in the second list (observe the ~)

stretchZipWith :: (a -> Bool) -> b -> (a -> b -> c) -> [a] -> [b] -> [c] Source #

stretchZipWith p z f xs ys stretches ys by inserting z in the places where p returns True

zipWithAndUnzip :: (a -> b -> (c, d)) -> [a] -> [b] -> ([c], [d]) Source #

zipWithLazy :: (a -> b -> c) -> [a] -> [b] -> [c] Source #

zipWithLazy is like zipWith but is lazy in the second list. The length of the output is always the same as the length of the first list.

zipWith3Lazy :: (a -> b -> c -> d) -> [a] -> [b] -> [c] -> [d] Source #

zipWith3Lazy is like zipWith3 but is lazy in the second and third lists. The length of the output is always the same as the length of the first list.

filterByList :: [Bool] -> [a] -> [a] Source #

filterByList takes a list of Bools and a list of some elements and filters out these elements for which the corresponding value in the list of Bools is False. This function does not check whether the lists have equal length.

filterByLists :: [Bool] -> [a] -> [a] -> [a] Source #

filterByLists takes a list of Bools and two lists as input, and outputs a new list consisting of elements from the last two input lists. For each Bool in the list, if it is True, then it takes an element from the former list. If it is False, it takes an element from the latter list. The elements taken correspond to the index of the Bool in its list. For example:

filterByLists [True, False, True, False] "abcd" "wxyz" = "axcz"

This function does not check whether the lists have equal length.

partitionByList :: [Bool] -> [a] -> ([a], [a]) Source #

partitionByList takes a list of Bools and a list of some elements and partitions the list according to the list of Bools. Elements corresponding to True go to the left; elements corresponding to False go to the right. For example, partitionByList [True, False, True] [1,2,3] == ([1,3], [2]) This function does not check whether the lists have equal length.

Hashing

hashString :: String -> Int32 Source #

A sample hash function for Strings. We keep multiplying by the golden ratio and adding. The implementation is:

hashString = foldl' f golden
  where f m c = fromIntegral (ord c) * magic + hashInt32 m
        magic = 0xdeadbeef

Where hashInt32 works just as hashInt shown above.

Knuth argues that repeated multiplication by the golden ratio will minimize gaps in the hash space, and thus it's a good choice for combining together multiple keys to form one.

Here we know that individual characters c are often small, and this produces frequent collisions if we use ord c alone. A particular problem are the shorter low ASCII and ISO-8859-1 character strings. We pre-multiply by a magic twiddle factor to obtain a good distribution. In fact, given the following test:

testp :: Int32 -> Int
testp k = (n - ) . length . group . sort . map hs . take n $ ls
  where ls = [] : [c : l | l <- ls, c <- ['\0'..'\xff']]
        hs = foldl' f golden
        f m c = fromIntegral (ord c) * k + hashInt32 m
        n = 100000

We discover that testp magic = 0.

Call stacks

data CallStack :: * #

CallStacks are a lightweight method of obtaining a partial call-stack at any point in the program.

A function can request its call-site with the HasCallStack constraint. For example, we can define

errorWithCallStack :: HasCallStack => String -> a

as a variant of error that will get its call-site. We can access the call-stack inside errorWithCallStack with callStack.

errorWithCallStack :: HasCallStack => String -> a
errorWithCallStack msg = error (msg ++ "n" ++ prettyCallStack callStack)

Thus, if we call errorWithCallStack we will get a formatted call-stack alongside our error message.

>>> errorWithCallStack "die"
*** Exception: die
CallStack (from HasCallStack):
  errorWithCallStack, called at <interactive>:2:1 in interactive:Ghci1

GHC solves HasCallStack constraints in three steps:

  1. If there is a CallStack in scope -- i.e. the enclosing function has a HasCallStack constraint -- GHC will append the new call-site to the existing CallStack.
  2. If there is no CallStack in scope -- e.g. in the GHCi session above -- and the enclosing definition does not have an explicit type signature, GHC will infer a HasCallStack constraint for the enclosing definition (subject to the monomorphism restriction).
  3. If there is no CallStack in scope and the enclosing definition has an explicit type signature, GHC will solve the HasCallStack constraint for the singleton CallStack containing just the current call-site.

CallStacks do not interact with the RTS and do not require compilation with -prof. On the other hand, as they are built up explicitly via the HasCallStack constraints, they will generally not contain as much information as the simulated call-stacks maintained by the RTS.

A CallStack is a [(String, SrcLoc)]. The String is the name of function that was called, the SrcLoc is the call-site. The list is ordered with the most recently called function at the head.

NOTE: The intrepid user may notice that HasCallStack is just an alias for an implicit parameter ?callStack :: CallStack. This is an implementation detail and should not be considered part of the CallStack API, we may decide to change the implementation in the future.
