- Type-threaded list
- Description
Thrist
is a list-like data structure (GADT) whose elements are values of a two-parameter datatype. The typing constraint ensures that the second type parameter of a former value unifies with the first type parameter of the latter.This threading of types is the foundation for thrists' nice properties. E.g., paired with a suitable semantics, function composition (.) can be embedded.
Technically a thrist is embodying the concept of a free category.
Sub-modules demonstrate the power of the thrist idea by emulating some familiar data structures.
