{- | Copyright : (c) Henning Thielemann 2007-2010 Maintainer : haskell@henning-thielemann.de Stability : stable Portability : Haskell 98 A type class for non-negative numbers. Prominent instances are 'Numeric.NonNegative.Wrapper.T' and peano numbers. This class cannot do any checks, but it let you show to the user what arguments your function expects. Thus you must define class instances with care. In fact many standard functions ('take', '(!!)', ...) should have this type class constraint. -} module Numeric.NonNegative.Class ( C(..), splitDefault, (-|), zero, add, sum, maximum, switchDifferenceNegative, switchDifferenceOrdering, ) where import Data.Monoid (Monoid, ) import qualified Data.Monoid as Monoid import Prelude hiding (sum, maximum, ) {- | Instances of this class must ensure non-negative values. We cannot enforce this by types, but the type class constraint @NonNegative.C@ avoids accidental usage of types which allow for negative numbers. The Monoid superclass contributes a zero and an addition. -} class (Ord a, Monoid a) => C a where {- | @split x y == (m,(b,d))@ means that @b == (x<=y)@, @m == min x y@, @d == max x y - min x y@, that is @d == abs(x-y)@. We have chosen this function as base function, since it provides comparison and subtraction in one go, which is important for replacing common structures like > if x<=y > then f(x-y) > else g(y-x) that lead to a memory leak for peano numbers. We have choosen the simple check @x<=y@ instead of a full-blown @compare@, since we want @Zero <= undefined@ for peano numbers. Because of undefined values 'split' is in general not commutative in the sense > let (m0,(b0,d0)) = split x y > (m1,(b1,d1)) = split y x > in m0==m1 && d0==d1 The result values are in the order in which they are generated for Peano numbers. We have chosen the nested pair instead of a triple in order to prevent a memory leak that occurs if you only use @b@ and @d@ and ignore @m@. This is demonstrated by test cases Chunky.splitSpaceLeak3 and Chunky.splitSpaceLeak4. -} split :: a -> a -> (a, (Bool, a)) {- | Default implementation for wrapped types of 'Ord' and 'Num' class. -} {-# INLINE splitDefault #-} splitDefault :: (Ord b, Num b) => (a -> b) -> (b -> a) -> a -> a -> (a, (Bool, a)) splitDefault unpack pack px py = let x = unpack px y = unpack py in if x<=y then (pack x, (True, pack (y-x))) else (pack y, (False, pack (x-y))) zero :: C a => a zero = Monoid.mempty -- like (+) infixl 6 `add` add :: C a => a -> a -> a add = Monoid.mappend sum :: C a => [a] -> a sum = Monoid.mconcat {- | Left biased maximum of a list of numbers that can also be empty.
