Re: [Haskell-cafe] Simple matrix

I wrote:

Here is one way to do it. First, you have to interpret operations on matrices as being elementwise applied. E.g, (*) is interpreted as zipWith (zipWith (*)) rather than matrix multiply, and similar for (+) etc. You then obtain a lazy semantics for the operations, where the extent of the resulting matrix is the intersection of the extents of the argument matrices. Second, you lift constants into infinite matrices containing the constant, that is: fromInteger n = repeat (repeat n). Now your examples will work as intended.

Ah, should of course be fromInteger n = repeat (repeat (fromInteger n)). Björn Lisper
