This floor is the dictionary selector, and for various (complicated looking) reasons it is lazy in its dictionary argument.
Aha! Thanks.
Of course a strict floor (Double to Int and Integer) is what I'm really hoping for (without having to specify it explicitly with $! in my code).
There are specialised versions of floor for Double -> Int and Double -> Integer. You *ought* to get good code out if you call floor at one of these types. If not, please send us the example.
Well, with the following module, with the strictnesses in comments, it seems to me that floor is lazy even when explicitly given the type Double -> Int - am I confused again? It also looks to me like addition of unboxed Ints is also treated as being lazy. import GHC.Base foo :: Int# -> Int# -> Int# foo = (+#) -- __S LL bar :: Int -> Int -> Int bar = (+) -- __S U(L)U(L)m baz :: Integer -> Integer -> Integer baz = (+) -- __S SS quux :: Double -> Int quux x = floor x -- __S L -ddump-simpl gives the following for quux: Str.quux = \ x :: GHC.Float.Double -> case GHC.Float.properFraction2 @ GHC.Base.Int GHC.Real.$fIntegralInt x of wild { (n, r) -> case r of wild1 { GHC.Float.D# x1 -> case GHC.Prim.<## x1 0.0 of wild2 { GHC.Base.True -> case n of wild11 { GHC.Base.I# x11 -> GHC.Base.I# (GHC.Prim.-# x11 1) }; GHC.Base.False -> n } } } Thanks Ian
