How many packages on Hackage provide instances for the Random class?

Around 30 packages.

See the attachment (a grep for "instance Random " on all direct reverse dependencies of 'random') for details.

A lot of those can be removed if Random has instances for Word* by default. Is there any reason they aren't already instances?

P.S. I'm not sure yet about this proposal.

Agreed. -- Ivan Lazar Miljenovic Ivan.Miljenovic@gmail.com IvanMiljenovic.wordpress.com
