--   A monad transformer version of the ST monad
@package STMonadTrans
@version 0.1


-- | This library provides a monad transformer version of the ST monad.
module Control.Monad.ST.Trans

-- | <a>STT</a> is the monad transformer providing polymorphic updateable
--   references
data STT s m a

-- | Executes a computation in the <a>STT</a> monad transformer
runST :: (Monad m) => (forall s. STT s m a) -> m a

-- | Mutable references
data STRef s a

-- | Create a new reference
newSTRef :: (Monad m) => a -> STT s m (STRef s a)

-- | Reads the value of a reference
readSTRef :: (Monad m) => STRef s a -> STT s m a

-- | Modifies the value of a reference
writeSTRef :: (Monad m) => STRef s a -> a -> STT s m ()

-- | Mutable arrays
data STArray s i e

-- | Creates a new mutable array
newSTArray :: (Ix i, Monad m) => (i, i) -> e -> STT s m (STArray s i e)

-- | Retrieves an element from the array
readSTArray :: (Ix i, Monad m) => STArray s i e -> i -> STT s m e

-- | Modifies an element in the array
writeSTArray :: (Ix i, Monad m) => STArray s i e -> i -> e -> STT s m ()

-- | Returns the lowest and highest indices of the array
boundsSTArray :: STArray s i e -> (i, i)

-- | Returns the number of elements in the array
numElementsSTArray :: STArray s i e -> Int

-- | Copy a mutable array and turn it into an immutable array
freezeSTArray :: (Ix i, Monad m) => STArray s i e -> STT s m (Array i e)

-- | Copy an immutable array and turn it into a mutable array
thawSTArray :: (Ix i, Monad m) => Array i e -> STT s m (STArray s i e)

-- | A safe way to create and work with a mutable array before returning an
--   immutable array for later perusal. This function avoids copying the
--   array before returning it.
