First, let's lay out our definitions:
unzip [] = ([], [])
unzip ((x,y):xys) = (x:xs, y:ys) where (xs,ys) = unzip xys
zip [] _ = []
zip _ [] = []
zip (x:xs) (y:ys) = (x,y) : zip xs ys
map _ [] = []
map f (x:xs) = f x : map f xs
stream ~(a:as) = a : stream as
-- equivalently
stream xs = head xs : stream (tail xs)
Now we want to evaluate this:
runSF (loop (arr swap)) [1,2,3]
Lets simplify some of the insides a bit:
arr swap
= SF $ map swap
= SF $ map (\(x,y)->(y,x))
loop (arr swap)
= SF $ \as ->
let (bs,cs) = unzip (map swap (zip as (stream cs))) in bs
runSF (loop (arr swap)) [1,2,3]
= runSF (SF $ ...) [1,2,3]
= (\as -> let (bs,cs) = unzip (map swap (zip as (stream cs))) in bs)
[1,2,3]
Here is our heap at this point; we are trying to evaluate bs:
p = unzip (map swap (zip as (stream cs)))
as = [1,2,3]
bs = fst p
cs = snd p
snd p forces p, unzip forces its argument, map forces its second argument,
and zip forces both its arguments.
So now we have:
p = unzip retmap
retmap = map swap retzip
retzip = zip as retstream
retstream = stream cs
as = [1,2,3]
bs = fst p
cs = snd p
Evaluating further:
retstream = head cs : retstream2
retstream2 = stream (tail cs)
retzip = (1, head cs) : retzip2
retzip2 = zip [2,3] (stream (tail cs))
retmap = (head cs, 1) : retmap2
retmap2 = map swap retzip2
p = (head cs : xs1, 1 : ys1)
(xs1,ys1) = unzip retmap2
bs = head cs : xs1
cs = 1 : ys1
bs = 1 : xs1
and we can now return the first cons cell of bs.
This repeats until we get [1,2,3] back out; note that each value goes
through both sides of the swap before coming out the 'front' again.

Hi John,
I'm trying to use the GHCI debugger on this code:
20 instance ArrowLoop SF where 21 loop (SF f) = SF $ \as -> 22 let (bs, cs) = unzip (f (zip as (stream cs))) in bs 23 where stream ~(x:xs) = x : stream xs 24 25 swap :: (a,b) -> (b,a) 26 swap (x,y) = (y,x)
in order to watch the recursion of the `loop' function unfold. However, when I single step through the code, I never stop on line 22 (where I could, presumably, peek in at `bs' and `cs', in order to see them develop):
*SF> :break swap Breakpoint 1 activated at SF.hs:26:1-18 *SF> runSF (loop (arr swap)) [1,2,3] Stopped at SF.hs:26:1-18 _result :: (b, a) = _ [SF.hs:26:1-18] *SF> :step Stopped at SF.hs:26:14-18 _result :: (b, a) = _ x :: a = _ y :: b = _ [SF.hs:26:14-18] *SF> : [1Stopped at SF.hs:23:34-42 _result :: [a] = _ xs :: [a] = _ [SF.hs:23:34-42] *SF> : Stopped at SF.hs:23:13-42 _result :: [a] = _ [SF.hs:23:13-42] *SF> : Stopped at SF.hs:23:30-42 _result :: [a] = _ x :: a = _ xs :: [a] = _ [SF.hs:23:30-42] *SF> : (Pattern repeats.)
Do you have any advice?
Thanks, -db
