For full Haskell that includes laziness and general recursion: not very. Proving properties about the values returned by functions is one thing, but giving good guaranteed upper bounds to the time and space used by an arbitrary program can be very difficult.

See for example:

J ̈orgen Gustavsson and David Sands, Possibilities and limitations of call-by-need space improvement, ICFP 2001: Proc. of the International Conference on Functional Programming, ACM, 2001, pp. 265–276.

Adam Bakewell and Colin Runciman, A model for comparing the space usage of lazy evaluators, PPDP 2000: Proc. of the International Conference on Principles and Practice of Declarative Pro- gramming, ACM, 2000, pp. 151–162.

Hans-Wolfgang Loidl. Granularity in Large-Scale Parallel Functional Programming. PhD Thesis. Department of Computing Science, University of Glasgow, March 1998.

I expect future solutions for this domain will look more like the Hume (family of) languages [1]. They give several language levels, and can give stronger bounds for programs using less language features.

Actually, this type is *less* general, in that it has less members.

Consider, what boolean is represented by this?
q :: CB Int
q = (+)

Whereas the (forall a. a -> a -> a) must work on *any* type, so it has
far less freedom to decide what to do, and therefore there are less
possible implementations. In fact, if we treat all bottoms as equal,
I believe these are all of the distinguishible implementations of this
function:

The form stuff is also for online submission, and the javascript
allows editing of what is possible.

For example (requires Adobe Reader plugin, which I don't have and thus
haven't seen it myself) this form (I believe) auto-fills in some
details and saves a copy online, etc.:

The only thing that stops PostScript from doing this is that it's
almost always used with devices where neither feature is useful.
Indeed, PostScript is fully network capable in theory; in practice I
doubt many printers implement the entire I/O model.

I think that has more to do with the fact that pdftex/pdflatex is
tightly integrated with a dvi converter that understands many PDF-
specific \special{}s.

Hi,

I'm just re-reading the book again, this time doing the exercises though :)

Is there a site with solutions for the exercises?

  [Haskell-cafe] Proposal filed to GHC, expecting supporters vote: Type supplement for constructor specific uses of sum types         


Author: Gabriel Riba
Date: Jun 8, 2010 02:27

Hi!

I have filed a new proposal to GHC bugs/whishes process based on the previous
discussion here.

The proposal address is

http://hackage.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/4116#comment:2

( I had some formatting problems with the first posting,
so it is better read at comment:2)

Voters admitted:

GHC prioritizes bugs/features based on the length of supporters email list at
the CC field of the ticket as explained here:

http://hackage.haskell.org/trac/ghc/wiki/ReportABug#Ifalreadyreportedvoteforit

You may add also any change proposal.

Cheers.

Gabriel
