Imants
Thanks for the sanity check on the instances.

I am concerned about the use of the function immsucc' from the same paper, which is defined in instances the Time class (but omitted from the class). The function  immsucc' is first used without arguments, which to me implies that it 'might' a function passed to the higher-order closure function. It is then used as just an ordinary function with arguments. I have found a version of closure based on Craft of Function Programming. which does not require a function as an argument.

So basically my question is: does the usage of immsucc' make sense in the code below?, do the types match up?
Regards,
Pat



data TimeFacts t = Bef (t, t, TimeFacts t) | New

class SetClass t => Time l t where
 new :: (t, t) -> l t
 bef :: (t, t, l t) -> l t
 succ , pred :: (t, l t) -> Set t
 immsucc , immpred :: (t, l t) -> Set t
 before, after :: (t, t, l t) -> Bool
 immedbefore, immedafter :: (t, t, l t) -> Bool
 immedafter (a, b, t) = immedbefore (b, a, t)
 after (a, b, t) = before (b, a, t)
 before (a, b, t) = memberInSet (b, succ (a, t))
 succ (a, tl) = closure ([a], immsucc' , tl)
 pred (a, tl) = closure ([a], immpred' , tl)
 immsucc (a, tl) = immsucc' ([a], [], tl)
 immpred (a, tl) = immpred' ([a], [], tl)

instance (SetClass t) => Time TimeFacts t where
 immsucc’ (a, s, New ) = s
 immsucc’ (a, s, Bef (e, f, tt)) = if memberInSet (e,a) then immsucc’ (a, insertInSet (f,s), tt) else immsucc’ (a, s,tt)

this builds. not sure if the instances are as intended
