monad-par-extras-0.3: Combinators and extra features for Par monads

Safe HaskellSafe-Infered

Control.Monad.Par.State

Description

This module provides a notion of (Splittable) State that is compatible with any Par monad.

Synopsis

Documentation

class SplittableState a whereSource

A type in SplittableState is meant to be added as to a Par monad using StateT. It works like any other state except at fork points, where the runtime system splits the state using splitState.

Common examples for applications of SplittableState would include (1) routing a splittable random number generator through a parallel computation, and (2) keeping a tree-index that locates the current computation within the binary tree of forks.

Methods

splitState :: a -> (a, a)Source
