Description

Synopsis

Partial orderings

class Eq a => PartialOrd a where Source #

A partial ordering on sets (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Partially_ordered_set) is a set equipped with a binary relation, leq, that obeys the following laws

Reflexive:     a `leq` a
Antisymmetric: a `leq` b && b `leq` a ==> a == b
Transitive:    a `leq` b && b `leq` c ==> a `leq` c

Two elements of the set are said to be comparable when they are are ordered with respect to the leq relation. So

comparable a b ==> a `leq` b || b `leq` a

If comparable always returns true then the relation leq defines a total ordering (and an Ord instance may be defined). Any Ord instance is trivially an instance of PartialOrd. Ordered provides a convenient wrapper to satisfy PartialOrd given Ord.

As an example consider the partial ordering on sets induced by set inclusion. Then for sets a and b,

a `leq` b

is true when a is a subset of b. Two sets are comparable if one is a subset of the other. Concretely

a = {1, 2, 3}
b = {1, 3, 4}
c = {1, 2}

a `leq` a = True
a `leq` b = False
a `leq` c = False
b `leq` a = False
b `leq` b = True
b `leq` c = False
c `leq` a = True
c `leq` b = False
c `leq` c = True

comparable a b = False
comparable a c = True
comparable b c = False

Minimal complete definition

leq

Methods

leq :: a -> a -> Bool Source #

The relation that induces the partial ordering

comparable :: a -> a -> Bool Source #

Whether two elements are ordered with respect to the relation. A default implementation is given by

comparable x y = leq x y || leq y x
