Control.Category.Hask
Description
Re-exports of all the common category-theory inspired classes from the
"base" package, i.e. basically endofunctors in the Hask category (with
functions (->) as morphisms).
The module is thus intended to be imported qualified as Hask.
Main use case would be defining new such functors / monads etc. yourself; even if you only intend to use them through the more general category-agnostic interface established in this package then the instances should still be defined for the plain old Hask-specific classes, i.e. for some
data F a = ... fmapF :: (a->b) -> F a->F b@ instance Hask.Functor F where Hask.fmap = fmapF
An instance of Functor arises automatically
from this, as defined generically for all (->) functors in that
module.
