Re: [Haskell-cafe] [ANN] frpnow-0.12

Hi Mike, cafe, The implementation in the library is essentially the same as in the paper, but B (E [a]) instead of B (E a) allows multiple simultaneous events, whereas the implementation in the paper does not. The result is B (E [a]), where the list is the list of all results in the event stream which occur at that point. Like the implementation in the paper, the behavior switches as soon as the next event occurs. I'm a bit unclear on your question, neither implementation is recursive. If you want to use event streams it's best not to look at their implementation, which is tricky, but just use the combinators that are available. You can create a behavior that always give the integration of the values in the eventstream as follows: integrate :: EvStream (Double,Double) -> Double -> Behavior (Behavior Double) integrate stream startTime = foldEs update (0,startTime) stream where update (total, prevTime) (cur, curTime) = let diff = curTime - prevTime * cur in (total + diff, curTime) Or use Control.FRPNow.Time.integrate :) The result will give a Behavior (Behavior Double), because the result depends on when we start integrating to prevent the space leak. Does that answer your question? Cheers, Atze 2015-08-24 16:15 GMT+02:00 Michael Jones :

Atze,

I have a question about Streams.

In the Paper Impl the following code:

newtype Stream a = S { next :: B (E a) }

catMaybesStream :: Stream (Maybe a) -> Stream a catMaybesStream (S s) = S loop where loop = do e <- s join <$> plan (nxt <$> e) -- nxt :: Maybe a -> B (E a) nxt (Just a) = return (return a) nxt Nothing = loop

Which I understand.

And in the library the following code:

newtype EvStream a = S { getEs :: Behavior (Event [a]) }

catMaybesEs :: EvStream (Maybe a) -> EvStream a catMaybesEs s = S $ loop where -- loop :: Behavior (Event [a]) loop = do e <- getEs s join <$> plan (nxt <$> e) nxt l = case catMaybes l of [] -> loop l -> return (return l)

I assume the new type EvStream the intent is for the stream of ‘a’ to be an array rather than a recursive data structure, based on the name ‘getEs’.

But, catMaybeEs is written like the paper version, suggesting it is a recursive data structure arrays.

My goal is to write an integrator for a stream, such that the type signature is:

EvStream (Double,Double) -> EvStream (Double)

where the tuple is (data, time) and the result is (integratedData)

and I modeled the function catMaybeEs, but it is not working. So I want to understand the general way to handle the stream in catMaybesEs.
