That extra bit bothered me, too. One could split AddBound into AddMax and AddMin. Perhaps better is to fix the problem upstream, splitting Bounded into WithMin and WithMax. On Thu, Sep 23, 2010 at 3:46 PM, Ross Paterson <ross@soi.city.ac.uk> wrote:

On the other hand, composing AddBounds introduces another element on the other side, which serves as an annihilator when composed with Min and Max. This is fine for some applications, but I don't believe it subsumes MinPriority and MaxPriority.
This extra element at the other end introduced by AddBounds bothers me too. So I agree with the conclusion that we need both versions that add a maximum/minimum, and ones that take it from Bounded. That leaves the question of which variant deserves to be called Max/Min. _______________________________________________ Libraries mailing list Libraries@haskell.org http://www.haskell.org/mailman/listinfo/libraries
