-- This module defines the 'XInt' type which is a specialised instance of 'Ord' which allows
-- the number of comparisons performed to be counted. This may be used evaluate various
-- algorithms. The functions defined here are not exported by the main "Data.Tree.AVL"
-- module. You need to import this module explicitly if you want to use any of them.
