Re: Proposal: add Bounded instances for Maybe and Either

Clever. I'm surprised those instances weren't already there. On Mon, May 7, 2018 at 11:19 PM, David Feuer wrote:

We can write

instance Bounded a => Bounded (Maybe a) where minBound = Nothing maxBound = Just maxBound

instance (Bounded a, Bounded b) => Bounded (Either a b) where minBound = Left minBound maxBound = Right maxBound

While Bounded intentionally does not have an Ord superclass, I think it's worth mentioning that these are the instances that arise naturally from the Ord instances for the types in question.
