UML diagrams of Haskell
by Bas van Dijk 30 Jun '03

Hi, It's maybe a weird question but do there exist UML diagrams of the Haskell language. They don't necessarily have to be UML diagrams, as long as they show the different concepts in the language (i.e.: functions, datatypes, patterns, etc.) and the relations between them(i.e.: a function consists of other functions, functions have a type).

RE: Arrow Classes

It may interest you guys to know that Ross Paterson and I have just put syntactic support for arrows into GHC. It's only in the CVS version at the moment, and is not documented at all, but those things will come. The type error messages should, I hope, be a lot better than those one can get by type checking pre-processed code.

There's something like UML, called FAD (Functional Analysis and Design, I believe). It was the topic of Daniel Russell's PhD thesis. See http://www.cs.kent.ac.uk/pubs/2001/1152/index.html for more. -- Hal Daume III | hdaume(a)isi.edu "Arrest this man, he talks in maths." | www.isi.edu/~hdaume > -----Original Message----- > From: haskell-cafe-admin(a)haskell.org > [mailto:haskell-cafe-admin@haskell.org] On Behalf Of Bas van Dijk > Sent: Sunday, June 29, 2003 2:50 PM > To: HaskellCafe Mailinglist > Subject: UML diagrams of Haskell > > > Hi, > > It's maybe a weird question but do there exist UML diagrams > of the Haskell > language. > They don't necessarily have to be UML diagrams, as long as > they show the > different concepts in the language (i.e.: functions, > datatypes, patterns, > etc.) and the relations between them(i.e.: a function > consists of other > functions, functions have a type). > > Bas. > > _______________________________________________ > Haskell-Cafe mailing list > Haskell-Cafe(a)haskell.org > http://www.haskell.org/mailman/listinfo/haskell-cafe >

RE: Simple monads

> (a) People could point out to me where I'm still confused, as > revealed by > my code. Is it needlessly complicated? looks pretty reasonable to me :) as to why Unique is in the IO monad is probabyl because if it were in any other monad, you could start the monad twice and thus get a repeat of each ID (if that makes sense). The only way around this is to put it in IO.

toUpper is in the Char (or Data.Char) library. You can do: Prelude> :m Data.Char Data.Char> map toUpper "hello world" or specify it completely. Prelude> map Data.Char.toUpper "hello world" I'll fix this reference in YAHT. I believe that Hugs automatically exports toUpper, which is why it was in there to begin with. - Hal -- Hal Daume III | hdaume(a)isi.edu "Arrest this man, he talks in maths." | www.isi.edu/~hdaume -----Original Message----- From: haskell-cafe-admin(a)haskell.org [mailto:haskell-cafe-admin@haskell.org] On Behalf Of Mark Espinoza Sent: Friday, June 27, 2003 7:53 AM To: haskell-cafe(a)haskell.org Subject: Help with ghci and Yet Another Haskell Tutorial Greetings, I am going through the Tutorial using ghc on a redhat 8.0 system.
