Re: Three patches for cabal

2009/6/3 Niklas Broberg :

First there's the constructor called TransformListComp, which should really be named GeneralizedListComp, since the constructor should describe the extension and not the implementation scheme.

It's called TransformListComp because the "then f" syntax transforms a list using f (which has type [a] -> [a]) - not because the implementation works by transformation or anything like that! We considered but rejected GeneralizedListComp because it's too vague - what if someone comes up with another list comprehension generalisation in the future? Max
