Dear Libraries,

I noticed the Numeric module has special-cased functions to read and show integral types in bases 8, 10, 16 but not for base 2. There are also generic-over-base versions, so an interested client can implement the special case for base 2 themselves with little hassle. Still, I think base 2 is common enough that we could support it along with base 8, 10, 16 out of the box.

What do you think? I'm happy to submit a merge request if you concur.

Kind regards, Artem Pelenitsyn _______________________________________________ Libraries mailing list Libraries@haskell.org mailto:Libraries@haskell.org http://mail.haskell.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/libraries
