fastMostSpecificVariation :: Expr -> Expr

A faster version of mostSpecificCanonicalVariation that disregards name clashes across different types. Consider using mostSpecificCanonicalVariation instead.

The same caveats of fastCanonicalVariations do apply here.

fastMostGeneralVariation :: Expr -> Expr

A faster version of mostGeneralCanonicalVariation that disregards name clashes across different types. Consider using mostGeneralCanonicalVariation instead.

The same caveats of fastCanonicalVariations do apply here.

fastCanonicalVariations :: Expr -> [Expr]

A faster version of canonicalVariations that disregards name clashes across different types. Results are confusing to the user but fine for Express which differentiates between variables with the same name but different types.

Without applying canonicalize, the following Expr may seem to have only one variable:

> fastCanonicalVariations $ i_ -+- ord' c_
[x + ord x :: Int]

Where in fact it has two, as the second x has a different type. Applying canonicalize disambiguates:

> map canonicalize . fastCanonicalVariations $ i_ -+- ord' c_
[x + ord c :: Int]

This function is useful when resulting Exprs are not intended to be presented to the user but instead to be used by another function. It is simply faster to skip the step where clashes are resolved.

mostSpecificCanonicalVariation :: Expr -> Expr

Returns the most specific canonical variation of an Expr by filling holes with variables.

> mostSpecificCanonicalVariation $ i_
x :: Int

> mostSpecificCanonicalVariation $ i_ -+- i_
x + x :: Int

> mostSpecificCanonicalVariation $ i_ -+- i_ -+- i_
(x + x) + x :: Int

> mostSpecificCanonicalVariation $ i_ -+- ord' c_
x + ord c :: Int

> mostSpecificCanonicalVariation $ i_ -+- i_ -+- ord' c_
(x + x) + ord c :: Int

> mostSpecificCanonicalVariation $ i_ -+- i_ -+- length' (c_ -:- unit c_)
(x + x) + length (c:c:"") :: Int

In an expression without holes this functions just returns the given expression itself:

> mostSpecificCanonicalVariation $ val (0 :: Int)
0 :: Int

> mostSpecificCanonicalVariation $ ord' bee
ord 'b' :: Int

This function is the same as taking the last of canonicalVariations but a bit faster.

mostGeneralCanonicalVariation :: Expr -> Expr

Returns the most general canonical variation of an Expr by filling holes with variables.

> mostGeneralCanonicalVariation $ i_
x :: Int

> mostGeneralCanonicalVariation $ i_ -+- i_
x + y :: Int

> mostGeneralCanonicalVariation $ i_ -+- i_ -+- i_
(x + y) + z :: Int

> mostGeneralCanonicalVariation $ i_ -+- ord' c_
x + ord c :: Int

> mostGeneralCanonicalVariation $ i_ -+- i_ -+- ord' c_
(x + y) + ord c :: Int

> mostGeneralCanonicalVariation $ i_ -+- i_ -+- length' (c_ -:- unit c_)
(x + y) + length (c:d:"") :: Int

In an expression without holes this functions just returns the given expression itself:

> mostGeneralCanonicalVariation $ val (0 :: Int)
0 :: Int

> mostGeneralCanonicalVariation $ ord' bee
ord 'b' :: Int

This function is the same as taking the head of canonicalVariations but a bit faster.

canonicalVariations :: Expr -> [Expr]

Returns all canonical variations of an Expr by filling holes with variables. Where possible, variations are listed from most general to least general.

> canonicalVariations $ i_
[x :: Int]

> canonicalVariations $ i_ -+- i_
[ x + y :: Int
, x + x :: Int ]

> canonicalVariations $ i_ -+- i_ -+- i_
[ (x + y) + z :: Int
, (x + y) + x :: Int
, (x + y) + y :: Int
, (x + x) + y :: Int
, (x + x) + x :: Int ]

> canonicalVariations $ i_ -+- ord' c_
[x + ord c :: Int]

> canonicalVariations $ i_ -+- i_ -+- ord' c_
[ (x + y) + ord c :: Int
, (x + x) + ord c :: Int ]

> canonicalVariations $ i_ -+- i_ -+- length' (c_ -:- unit c_)
[ (x + y) + length (c:d:"") :: Int
, (x + y) + length (c:c:"") :: Int
, (x + x) + length (c:d:"") :: Int
, (x + x) + length (c:c:"") :: Int ]

In an expression without holes this functions just returns a singleton list with the expression itself:

> canonicalVariations $ val (0 :: Int)
[0 :: Int]

> canonicalVariations $ ord' bee
[ord 'b' :: Int]

When applying this to expressions already containing variables clashes are avoided and these variables are not touched:

> canonicalVariations $ i_ -+- ii -+- jj -+- i_
[ x + i + j + y :: Int
, x + i + j + y :: Int ]

> canonicalVariations $ ii -+- jj
[i + j :: Int]

> canonicalVariations $ xx -+- i_ -+- i_ -+- length' (c_ -:- unit c_) -+- yy
[ (((x + z) + x') + length (c:d:"")) + y :: Int
, (((x + z) + x') + length (c:c:"")) + y :: Int
, (((x + z) + z) + length (c:d:"")) + y :: Int
, (((x + z) + z) + length (c:c:"")) + y :: Int
]

isCanonical :: Expr -> Bool

Returns whether an Expr is canonical: if applying canonicalize is an identity using names as provided by preludeNameInstances.

canonicalization :: Expr -> [(Expr, Expr)]

Return a canonicalization of an Expr that makes variable names appear in order using names as provided by preludeNameInstances. By using //- it can canonicalize Exprs.

> canonicalization (gg yy -+- ff xx -+- gg xx)
[ (x :: Int,        y :: Int)
, (f :: Int -> Int, g :: Int -> Int)
, (y :: Int,        x :: Int)
, (g :: Int -> Int, f :: Int -> Int) ]

> canonicalization (yy -+- xx -+- yy)
[ (x :: Int, y :: Int)
, (y :: Int, x :: Int) ]

canonicalize :: Expr -> Expr

Canonicalizes an Expr so that variable names appear in order. Variable names are taken from the preludeNameInstances.

> canonicalize (xx -+- yy)
x + y :: Int

> canonicalize (yy -+- xx)
x + y :: Int

> canonicalize (xx -+- xx)
x + x :: Int

> canonicalize (yy -+- yy)
x + x :: Int

Constants are untouched:

> canonicalize (jj -+- (zero -+- abs' ii))
x + (y + abs y) :: Int

This also works for variable functions:

> canonicalize (gg yy -+- ff xx -+- gg xx)
(f x + g y) + f y :: Int

i + j :: Int

The argument Expr of the argument function allows to provide a different list of names for different types:

> let namesFor e
>   | typ e == typeOf (undefined::Char) = variableNamesFromTemplate "c1"
>   | typ e == typeOf (undefined::Int)  = variableNamesFromTemplate "i"
>   | otherwise                         = variableNamesFromTemplate "x"

deriveExpressCascading :: Name -> DecsQ

Derives a Express instance for a given type Name cascading derivation of type arguments as well.

deriveExpressIfNeeded :: Name -> DecsQ

Same as deriveExpress but does not warn when instance already exists (deriveExpress is preferable).

deriveExpress :: Name -> DecsQ

Derives an Express instance for the given type Name.

This function needs the TemplateHaskell extension.

If -:, ->:, ->>:, ->>>:, ... are not in scope, this will derive them as well.

class (Show a, Typeable a) => Express a where

Express typeclass instances provide an expr function that allows values to be deeply encoded as applications of Exprs.

expr False  =  val False
expr (Just True)  =  value "Just" (Just :: Bool -> Maybe Bool) :$ val True

The function expr can be contrasted with the function val:

• val always encodes values as atomic Value Exprs -- shallow encoding.
• expr ideally encodes expressions as applications (:$) between Value Exprs -- deep encoding.

Depending on the situation, one or the other may be desirable.

Instances can be automatically derived using the TH function deriveExpress.

The following example shows a datatype and its instance:

data Stack a = Stack a (Stack a) | Empty

instance Express a => Express (Stack a) where
  expr s@(Stack x y) = value "Stack" (Stack ->>: s) :$ expr x :$ expr y
  expr s@Empty       = value "Empty" (Empty   -: s)

To declare expr it may be useful to use auxiliary type binding operators: -:, ->:, ->>:, ->>>:, ->>>>:, ->>>>>:, ...

For types with atomic values, just declare expr = val

unfold :: Expr -> [Expr]

O(n). Unfolds an Expr representing a list into a list of Exprs. This reverses the effect of fold.

> expr [1,2,3::Int]
[1,2,3] :: [Int]
> unfold $ expr [1,2,3::Int]
[1 :: Int,2 :: Int,3 :: Int]

fold :: [Expr] -> Expr

O(n). Folds a list of Exprs into a single Expr. (cf. unfold)

This always generates an ill-typed expression.

fold [val False, val True, val (1::Int)]
[False,True,1] :: ill-typed # ExprList $ Bool #

This is useful when applying transformations on lists of Exprs, such as canonicalize, mapValues or canonicalVariations.

> let ii = var "i" (undefined::Int)
> let kk = var "k" (undefined::Int)
> let qq = var "q" (undefined::Bool)
> let notE = value "not" not
> unfold . canonicalize . fold $ [ii,kk,notE :$ qq, notE :$ val False]
[x :: Int,y :: Int,not p :: Bool,not False :: Bool]

unfoldTrio :: Expr -> (Expr, Expr, Expr)

O(1). Unfolds an Expr representing a trio/triple. This reverses the effect of foldTrio.

> value ",," ((,,) :: Bool->Bool->Bool->(Bool,Bool,Bool)) :$ val True :$ val False :$ val True
(True,False,True) :: (Bool,Bool,Bool)
> unfoldTrio $ value ",," ((,,) :: Bool->Bool->Bool->(Bool,Bool,Bool)) :$ val True :$ val False :$ val True
(True :: Bool,False :: Bool,True :: Bool)

(cf. unfoldPair)

foldTrio :: (Expr, Expr, Expr) -> Expr

O(1). Folds a trio/triple of Expr values into a single Expr. (cf. unfoldTrio)

This always generates an ill-typed expression as it uses a fake trio/triple constructor.

> foldTrio (val False, val (1::Int), val 'a')
(False,1,'a') :: ill-typed # ExprTrio $ Bool #

> foldTrio (val (0::Int), val True, val 'b')
(0,True,'b') :: ill-typed # ExprTrio $ Int #

This is useful when applying transformations on pairs of Exprs, such as canonicalize, mapValues or canonicalVariations.

> let ii = var "i" (undefined::Int)
> let kk = var "k" (undefined::Int)
> let zz = var "z" (undefined::Int)
> unfoldPair $ canonicalize $ foldPair (ii,kk,zz)
(x :: Int,y :: Int,z :: Int)

unfoldPair :: Expr -> (Expr, Expr)

O(1). Unfolds an Expr representing a pair. This reverses the effect of foldPair.

> value "," ((,) :: Bool->Bool->(Bool,Bool)) :$ val True :$ val False
(True,False) :: (Bool,Bool)
> unfoldPair $ value "," ((,) :: Bool->Bool->(Bool,Bool)) :$ val True :$ val False
(True :: Bool,False :: Bool)

foldPair :: (Expr, Expr) -> Expr

O(1). Folds a pair of Expr values into a single Expr. (cf. unfoldPair)

This always generates an ill-typed expression, as it uses a fake pair constructor.

> foldPair (val False, val (1::Int))
(False,1) :: ill-typed # ExprPair $ Bool #

> foldPair (val (0::Int), val True)
(0,True) :: ill-typed # ExprPair $ Int #

This is useful when applying transformations on pairs of Exprs, such as canonicalize, mapValues or canonicalVariations.

> let ii = var "i" (undefined::Int)
> let kk = var "k" (undefined::Int)
> unfoldPair $ canonicalize $ foldPair (ii,kk)
(x :: Int,y :: Int)

foldApp :: [Expr] -> Expr

O(n). Folds a list of Expr with function application (:$). This reverses the effect of unfoldApp.

foldApp [e0]           =  e0
foldApp [e0,e1]        =  e0 :$ e1
foldApp [e0,e1,e2]     =  e0 :$ e1 :$ e2
foldApp [e0,e1,e2,e3]  =  e0 :$ e1 :$ e2 :$ e3

Remember :$ is left-associative, so:

foldApp [e0]           =    e0
foldApp [e0,e1]        =   (e0 :$ e1)
foldApp [e0,e1,e2]     =  ((e0 :$ e1) :$ e2)
foldApp [e0,e1,e2,e3]  = (((e0 :$ e1) :$ e2) :$ e3)

This function may produce an ill-typed expression.

fill :: Expr -> [Expr] -> Expr

Fill holes in an expression with the given list.

> let i_  =  hole (undefined :: Int)
> let e1 -+- e2  =  value "+" ((+) :: Int -> Int -> Int) :$ e1 :$ e2
> let xx  =  var "x" (undefined :: Int)
> let yy  =  var "y" (undefined :: Int)

> fill (i_ -+- i_) [xx, yy]
x + y :: Int

> fill (i_ -+- i_) [xx, xx]
x + x :: Int

> let one  =  val (1::Int)

> fill (i_ -+- i_) [one, one -+- one]
1 + (1 + 1) :: Int

This function silently remaining expressions:

> fill i_ [xx, yy]
x :: Int

This function silently keeps remaining holes:

> fill (i_ -+- i_ -+- i_) [xx, yy]
(x + y) + _ :: Int

This function silently skips remaining holes if one is not of the right type:

> fill (i_ -+- i_ -+- i_) [xx, val 'c', yy]
(x + _) + _ :: Int

listVarsAsTypeOf :: String -> Expr -> [Expr]

Generate an infinite list of variables based on a template and the type of a given Expr. (cf. listVars)

> let one = val (1::Int)
> putL 10 $ "x" `listVarsAsTypeOf` one
[ x :: Int
, y :: Int
, z :: Int
, x' :: Int
, ...
]

> let false = val False

, y' :: Int
, z' :: Int
, x'' :: Int
, ...
]

> putL 10 $ listVars "p" (undefined :: Bool)
[ p :: Bool
, q :: Bool
, r :: Bool
, p' :: Bool
, q' :: Bool
, r' :: Bool
, p'' :: Bool
, ...
]

isComplete :: Expr -> Bool

O(n). Returns whether an expression is complete. A complete expression is one without holes.

> isComplete $ hole (undefined :: Bool)
False

> isComplete $ value "not" not :$ val True
True

> isComplete $ value "not" not :$ hole (undefined :: Bool)
False

isComplete is the negation of hasHole.

isComplete  =  not . hasHole

isComplete is to hasHole what isGround is to hasVar.

hasHole :: Expr -> Bool

O(n). Returns whether an expression contains a hole

> hasHole $ hole (undefined :: Bool)
True

> hasHole $ value "not" not :$ val True
False

> hasHole $ value "not" not :$ hole (undefined :: Bool)
True

nubHoles :: Expr -> [Expr]

O(n^2). Lists all holes in an expression without repetitions. (cf. holes)

> nubHoles $ hole (undefined :: Bool)
[_ :: Bool]

> nubHoles $ value "&&" (&&) :$ hole (undefined :: Bool) :$ hole (undefined :: Bool)
[_ :: Bool]

> nubHoles $ hole (undefined :: Bool->Bool) :$ hole (undefined::Bool)
[_ :: Bool,_ :: Bool -> Bool]

Runtime averages to O(n log n) on evenly distributed expressions such as (f x + g y) + (h z + f w); and to O(n^2) on deep expressions such as f (g (h (f (g (h x))))).

holes :: Expr -> [Expr]

O(n). Lists all holes in an expression, in order and with repetitions. (cf. nubHoles)

> holes $ hole (undefined :: Bool)

[_ :: Bool,_ :: Bool]

> holes $ hole (undefined :: Bool->Bool) :$ hole (undefined::Bool)
[_ :: Bool -> Bool,_ :: Bool]

isHole :: Expr -> Bool

O(1). Checks if an Expr represents a typed hole. (cf. hole)

> isHole $ hole (undefined :: Int)
True

> isHole $ value "not" not :$ val True
False

> isHole $ val 'a'
False

hole :: Typeable a => a -> Expr

O(1). Creates an Expr representing a typed hole of the given argument type.

> hole (undefined :: Int)
_ :: Int

> hole (undefined :: Maybe String)
_ :: Maybe [Char]

A hole is represented as a variable with no name or a value named "_":

hole x = var "" x
hole x = value "_" x

holeAsTypeOf :: Expr -> Expr

O(1). Creates an Expr representing a typed hole with the type of the given Expr. (cf. hole)

> val (1::Int)
1 :: Int
> holeAsTypeOf $ val (1::Int)
_ :: Int

O(1). Creates a variable with the same type as the given Expr.

> let one = val (1::Int)
> "x" `varAsTypeOf` one
x :: Int

> "p" `varAsTypeOf` val False
p :: Bool

renameVarsBy :: (String -> String) -> Expr -> Expr

Rename variables in an Expr.

> renameVarsBy (++ "'") (xx -+- yy)
x' + y' :: Int

> renameVarsBy (++ "'") (yy -+- (zz -+- xx))
(y' + (z' + x')) :: Int

> renameVarsBy (++ "1") (abs' xx)
abs x1 :: Int

> renameVarsBy (++ "2") $ abs' (xx -+- yy)
abs (x2 + y2) :: Int

NOTE: this will affect holes!

(//) :: Expr -> [(Expr, Expr)] -> Expr

O(n*n*m). Substitute subexpressions in an expression from the given list of substitutions. (cf. mapSubexprs).

Please consider using //- if you are replacing just terminal values as it is faster.

Given that:

> let xx = var "x" (undefined :: Int)
> let yy = var "y" (undefined :: Int)
> let zz = var "z" (undefined :: Int)
> let xx -+- yy = value "+" ((+) :: Int->Int->Int) :$ xx :$ yy

Then:

> ((xx -+- yy) -+- (yy -+- zz)) // [(xx -+- yy, yy), (yy -+- zz, yy)]
y + y :: Int

> ((xx -+- yy) -+- zz) // [(xx -+- yy, zz), (zz, xx -+- yy)]
z + (x + y) :: Int

Replacement happens only once with outer expressions having more precedence than inner expressions.

> (xx -+- yy) // [(yy,xx), (xx -+- yy,zz), (zz,xx)]
z :: Int

Given that the argument list has length m, this function is O(n*n*m). Remember that since n is the size of an expression, comparing two expressions is O(n) in the worst case, and we may need to compare with n subexpressions in the worst case.

(//-) :: Expr -> [(Expr, Expr)] -> Expr

O(n*m). Substitute occurrences of values in an expression from the given list of substitutions. (cf. mapValues)

Given that:

> let xx = var "x" (undefined :: Int)
> let yy = var "y" (undefined :: Int)
> let zz = var "z" (undefined :: Int)
> let xx -+- yy = value "+" ((+) :: Int->Int->Int) :$ xx :$ yy

Then:

> ((xx -+- yy) -+- (yy -+- zz)) //- [(xx, yy), (zz, yy)]
(y + y) + (y + y) :: Int

> ((xx -+- yy) -+- (yy -+- zz)) //- [(yy, yy -+- zz)]
(x + (y + z)) + ((y + z) + z) :: Int

This function does not work for substituting non-terminal subexpressions:

> (xx -+- yy) //- [(xx -+- yy, zz)]
x + y :: Int

Please use the slower // if you want the above replacement to work.

Replacement happens only once:

> xx //- [(xx,yy), (yy,zz)]
y :: Int

Given that the argument list has length m, this function is O(n*m).

mapSubexprs :: (Expr -> Maybe Expr) -> Expr -> Expr

O(n*m). Substitute subexpressions of an expression using the given function. Outer expressions have more precedence than inner expressions. (cf. //)

With:

> let xx = var "x" (undefined :: Int)
> let yy = var "y" (undefined :: Int)
> let zz = var "z" (undefined :: Int)
> let plus = value "+" ((+) :: Int->Int->Int)
> let times = value "*" ((*) :: Int->Int->Int)
> let xx -+- yy = plus :$ xx :$ yy
> let xx -*- yy = times :$ xx :$ yy

> let pluswap (o :$ xx :$ yy) | o == plus = Just $ o :$ yy :$ xx
|     pluswap _                           = Nothing

Then:

> mapSubexprs pluswap $ (xx -*- yy) -+- (yy -*- zz)
y * z + x * y :: Int

> mapSubexprs pluswap $ (xx -+- yy) -*- (yy -+- zz)
(y + x) * (z + y) :: Int

Substitutions do not stack, in other words a replaced expression or its subexpressions are not further replaced:

> mapSubexprs pluswap $ (xx -+- yy) -+- (yy -+- zz)
(y + z) + (x + y) :: Int

Given that the argument function is O(m), this function is O(n*m).

mapConsts :: (Expr -> Expr) -> Expr -> Expr

Given that:

> let one   = val (1 :: Int)
> let two   = val (2 :: Int)
> let xx -+- yy = value "+" ((+) :: Int->Int->Int) :$ xx :$ yy
> let intToZero e = if typ e == typ zero then zero else e

Then:

> one -+- (two -+- xx)
1 + (2 + x) :: Int

> mapConsts intToZero (one -+- (two -+- xx))
0 + (0 + x) :: Integer

Given that the argument function is O(m), this function is O(n*m).

mapVars :: (Expr -> Expr) -> Expr -> Expr

O(n*m). Applies a function to all variables in an expression.

Given that:

> let primeify e = if isVar e
|                  then case e of (Value n d) -> Value (n ++ "'") d
|                  else e
> let xx = var "x" (undefined :: Int)
> let yy = var "y" (undefined :: Int)
> let xx -+- yy = value "+" ((+) :: Int->Int->Int) :$ xx :$ yy

Then:

> xx -+- yy
x + y :: Int

> primeify xx
x' :: Int

> mapVars primeify $ xx -+- yy
x' + y' :: Int

> mapVars (primeify . primeify) $ xx -+- yy
x'' + y'' :: Int

Given that the argument function is O(m), this function is O(n*m).

mapValues :: (Expr -> Expr) -> Expr -> Expr

O(n*m). Applies a function to all terminal values in an expression. (cf. //-)

Given that:

> let zero  = val (0 :: Int)
> let one   = val (1 :: Int)
> let two   = val (2 :: Int)
> let three = val (3 :: Int)
> let xx -+- yy = value "+" ((+) :: Int->Int->Int) :$ xx :$ yy
> let intToZero e = if typ e == typ zero then zero else e

Then:

> one -+- (two -+- three)
1 + (2 + 3) :: Int

> mapValues intToZero $ one -+- (two -+- three)
0 + (0 + 0) :: Integer

Given that the argument function is O(m), this function is O(n*m).

False

> xx `isSubexprOf` yy
False

hasInstanceOf :: Expr -> Expr -> Bool

Checks if any of the subexpressions of the first argument Expr is an instance of the second argument Expr.

encompasses :: Expr -> Expr -> Bool

Given two Exprs, checks if the first expression encompasses the second expression in terms of variables.

This is equivalent to flipping the arguments of isInstanceOf.

zero `encompasses` xx    =  False
  xx `encompasses` zero  =  True

isInstanceOf :: Expr -> Expr -> Bool

Given two Exprs, checks if the first expression is an instance of the second in terms of variables. (cf. encompasses, hasInstanceOf)

> let zero = val (0::Int)
> let one  = val (1::Int)
> let xx   = var "x" (undefined :: Int)
> let yy   = var "y" (undefined :: Int)
> let e1 -+- e2  =  value "+" ((+)::Int->Int->Int) :$ e1 :$ e2

 one `isInstanceOf` one   =  True
  xx `isInstanceOf` xx    =  True
  yy `isInstanceOf` xx    =  True
zero `isInstanceOf` xx    =  True
  xx `isInstanceOf` zero  =  False
 one `isInstanceOf` zero  =  False
  (xx -+- (yy -+- xx)) `isInstanceOf`   (xx -+- yy)  =  True
  (yy -+- (yy -+- xx)) `isInstanceOf`   (xx -+- yy)  =  True
(zero -+- (yy -+- xx)) `isInstanceOf` (zero -+- yy)  =  True
 (one -+- (yy -+- xx)) `isInstanceOf` (zero -+- yy)  =  False

matchWith :: [(Expr, Expr)] -> Expr -> Expr -> Maybe [(Expr, Expr)]

Like match but allowing predefined bindings.

matchWith [(xx,zero)] (zero -+- one) (xx -+- yy)  =  Just [(xx,zero), (yy,one)]
matchWith [(xx,one)]  (zero -+- one) (xx -+- yy)  =  Nothing

match :: Expr -> Expr -> Maybe [(Expr, Expr)]

Given two expressions, returns a Just list of matches of subexpressions of the first expressions to variables in the second expression. Returns Nothing when there is no match.

> let zero = val (0::Int)
> let one  = val (1::Int)
> let xx   = var "x" (undefined :: Int)
> let yy   = var "y" (undefined :: Int)
> let e1 -+- e2  =  value "+" ((+)::Int->Int->Int) :$ e1 :$ e2

> (zero -+- one) `match` (xx -+- yy)
Just [(y :: Int,1 :: Int),(x :: Int,0 :: Int)]

> (zero -+- (one -+- two)) `match` (xx -+- yy)
Just [(y :: Int,1 + 2 :: Int),(x :: Int,0 :: Int)]

> (zero -+- (one -+- two)) `match` (xx -+- (yy -+- yy))
Nothing

In short:

          (zero -+- one) `match` (xx -+- yy)           =  Just [(xx,zero), (yy,one)]
(zero -+- (one -+- two)) `match` (xx -+- yy)           =  Just [(xx,zero), (yy,one-+-two)]
(zero -+- (one -+- two)) `match` (xx -+- (yy -+- yy))  =  Nothing

height :: Expr -> Int

O(n). Returns the maximum height of a given expression given by the maximum number of nested function applications. Curried function application is counted each time, i.e. the application of a two argument function increases the depth of its first argument by two and of its second argument by one. (cf. depth)

With:

zero          =  val (0 :: Int)
one           =  val (1 :: Int)
two           =  val (2 :: Int)
const' xx yy  =  value "const" (const :: Int->Int->Int) :$ xx :$ yy
abs' xx       =  value "abs" (abs :: Int->Int) :$ xx

Then:

> height zero
1

> height (abs' one)
2

> height ((const' one) two)
3

> height ((const' (abs' one)) two)
4

> height ((const' one) (abs' two))
3

Flipping arguments of applications in subterms may change the result of the function.

depth :: Expr -> Int

O(n). Returns the maximum depth of a given expression given by the maximum number of nested function applications. Curried function application is counted only once, i.e. the application of a two argument function increases the depth of both its arguments by one. (cf. height)

With

zero       =  val (0 :: Int)
one        =  val (1 :: Int)
two        =  val (2 :: Int)
xx -+- yy  =  value "+" ((+) :: Int->Int->Int) :$ xx :$ yy
abs' xx    =  value "abs" (abs :: Int->Int) :$ xx

> depth zero
1

> depth (one -+- two)
2

> depth (abs' one -+- two)
3

Flipping arguments of applications in any of the subterms does not affect the result.

size :: Expr -> Int

O(n). Returns the size of the given expression, i.e. the number of terminal values in it.

zero       =  val (0 :: Int)
one        =  val (1 :: Int)

0

> arity (value "id" (id :: Int -> Int))
1

> arity (value "const" (const :: Int -> Int -> Int))

> isApp $ var "x" (undefined :: Int)
False

> isApp $ val False
False

> isApp $ value "not" not :$ var "p" (undefined :: Bool)

This is equivalent to pattern matching the :$ constructor.

Properties:

•  isApp (e1 :$ e2)  =  True

•  isApp  =  not . isValue

•  isApp e  =  not (isVar e) && not (isConst e)

> isValue $ var "x" (undefined :: Int)
True

> isValue $ val False
True

False

hasVar :: Expr -> Bool

O(n). Check if an Expr has a variable. (By convention, any value whose String representation starts with '_'.)

unfoldApp :: Expr -> [Expr]

unfoldApp $ e0 :$ e1 :$ e2 :$ e3  =  [e0,e1,e2,e3]

Remember :$ is left-associative, so:

unfoldApp e0                          =  [e0]
unfoldApp (e0 :$ e1)                  =  [e0,e1]
unfoldApp ((e0 :$ e1) :$ e2)          =  [e0,e1,e2]

compareQuickly :: Expr -> Expr -> Ordering

O(n). A fast total order between Exprs that can be used when sorting Expr values.

This is lazier than its counterparts compareComplexity and compareLexicographically and tries to evaluate the given Exprs as least as possible.

compareLexicographically :: Expr -> Expr -> Ordering

O(n). Lexicographical structural comparison of Exprs where variables < constants < applications then types are compared before string representations.

> compareLexicographically one (one -+- one)

> compareLexicographically one zero
GT
> compareLexicographically (xx -+- zero) (zero -+- xx)
LT
> compareLexicographically (zero -+- xx) (zero -+- xx)
EQ

(cf. compareTy)

This comparison is a total order.

compareComplexity :: Expr -> Expr -> Ordering

O(n). Compares the complexity of two Exprs. An expression e1 is strictly simpler than another expression e2 if the first of the following conditions to distingish between them is:

1. e1 is smaller in size/length than e2, e.g.: x + y < x + (y + z);
2. or, e1 has more distinct variables than e2, e.g.: x + y < x + x;
3. or, e1 has more variable occurrences than e2, e.g.: x + x < 1 + x;
4. or, e1 has fewer distinct constants than e2, e.g.: 1 + 1 < 0 + 1.

They're otherwise considered of equal complexity, e.g.: x + y and y + z.

> (xx -+- yy) `compareComplexity` (xx -+- (yy -+- zz))
LT

> (xx -+- yy) `compareComplexity` (xx -+- xx)
LT

> (xx -+- xx) `compareComplexity` (one -+- xx)
LT

> (one -+- one) `compareComplexity` (zero -+- one)
LT

> (xx -+- yy) `compareComplexity` (yy -+- zz)
EQ

> (zero -+- one) `compareComplexity` (one -+- zero)
EQ

This comparison is not a total order.

This function follows the underscore convention: a variable is just a value whose string representation starts with underscore ('_').

($$) :: Expr -> Expr -> Maybe Expr

O(n). Creates an Expr representing a function application. Just an Expr application if the types match, Nothing otherwise. (cf. :$)

> value "id" (id :: () -> ()) $$ val ()
Just (id () :: ())

> value "abs" (abs :: Int -> Int) $$ val (1337 :: Int)
Just (abs 1337 :: Int)

> value "abs" (abs :: Int -> Int) $$ val 'a'
Nothing

> value "abs" (abs :: Int -> Int) $$ val ()
Nothing

val :: (Typeable a, Show a) => a -> Expr

O(1). A shorthand for value for values that are Show instances.

> val (0 :: Int)
0 :: Int

> val 'a'
'a' :: Char

> val True
True :: Bool

Example equivalences to value:

val 0     =  value "0" 0
val 'a'   =  value "'a'" 'a'
val True  =  value "True" True

value :: Typeable a => String -> a -> Expr

O(1). It takes a string representation of a value and a value, returning an Expr with that terminal value. For instances of Show, it is preferable to use val.

> value "0" (0 :: Integer)
0 :: Integer

> value "'a'" 'a'
'a' :: Char

> value "True" True
True :: Bool

> value "id" (id :: Int -> Int)
id :: Int -> Int

> value "(+)" ((+) :: Int -> Int -> Int)
(+) :: Int -> Int -> Int

> value "sort" (sort :: [Bool] -> [Bool])
sort :: [Bool] -> [Bool]

data Expr

Values of type Expr represent objects or applications between objects. Each object is encapsulated together with its type and string representation. Values encoded in Exprs are always monomorphic.

An Expr can be constructed using:

• val, for values that are Show instances;
• value, for values that are not Show instances, like functions;
• :$, for applications between Exprs.

> val False
False :: Bool

> value "not" not :$ val False
not False :: Bool

An Expr can be evaluated using evaluate, eval or evl.

> evl $ val (1 :: Int) :: Int
1

> evaluate $ val (1 :: Int) :: Maybe Bool
Nothing

> eval 'a' (val 'b')
'b'

Showing a value of type Expr will return a pretty-printed representation of the expression together with its type.

> show (value "not" not :$ val False)
"not False :: Bool"

Expr is like Dynamic but has support for applications and variables (:$, var).

The var underscore convention: Functions that manipulate Exprs usually follow the convention where a value whose String representation starts with '_' represents a variable.

Constructors

deriveNameCascading :: Name -> DecsQ

Derives a Name instance for a given type Name cascading derivation of type arguments as well.

deriveNameIfNeeded :: Name -> DecsQ

Same as deriveName but does not warn when instance already exists (deriveName is preferable).

deriveName :: Name -> DecsQ

Derives a Name instance for the given type Name.

This function needs the TemplateHaskell extension.

names :: Name a => a -> [String]

Returns na infinite list of variable names from the given type: the result of variableNamesFromTemplate after name.

> names (undefined :: Int)
["x", "y", "z", "x'", "y'", "z'", "x''", "y''", "z''", ...]

> names (undefined :: Bool)
["p", "q", "r", "p'", "q'", "r'", "p''", "q''", "r''", ...]

> names (undefined :: [Int])
["xs", "ys", "zs", "xs'", "ys'", "zs'", "xs''", "ys''", ...]

class Name a where

If we were to come up with a variable name for the given type what name would it be?

An instance for a given type Ty is simply given by:

instance Name Ty where name _ = "x"

Examples:

> name (undefined :: Int)
"x"

> name (undefined :: Bool)
"p"

> name (undefined :: [Int])
"xs"

This is then used to generate an infinite list of variable names:

> names (undefined :: Int)
["x", "y", "z", "x'", "y'", "z'", "x''", "y''", "z''", ...]

> names (undefined :: Bool)
["p", "q", "r", "p'", "q'", "r'", "p''", "q''", "r''", ...]

> names (undefined :: [Int])
["xs", "ys", "zs", "xs'", "ys'", "zs'", "xs''", "ys''", ...]

rehole :: Expr -> Expr

Turns all variables of an expression into holes.

> rehole (xx -+- yy)
_ + _ :: Int

(>$$<) :: [Expr] -> [Expr] -> [Expr]

Application cross-product between lists of Exprs

funToVar :: Expr -> Expr

Makes the function in an application a variable

recursexpr :: Int -> Expr -> Expr -> Expr

Expands recursive calls on an expression until the given size limit is reached.

> recursexpr 6 (ff xx) (ff xx)
f x :: Int

> recursexpr 6 (ff xx) (one -+- ff xx)
1 + (1 + (1 + (1 + f x))) :: Int

> recursexpr 6 (ff xx) (if' pp one (xx -*- ff xx))
(if p then 1 else x * (if p then 1 else x * f x)) :: Int

> recursexpr 6 (ff xx) (if' pp one (xx -*- ff (gg xx)))
(if p then 1 else x * (if p then 1 else g x * f (g (g x)))) :: Int

apparentlyTerminates :: Expr -> Expr -> Bool

Checks if the given recursive call apparently terminates. The first argument indicates the functional variable indicating the recursive call.

> apparentlyTerminates ffE (ff xx)
False

> apparentlyTerminates ffE (if' pp zero (ff xx))
True

This function only allows recursion in the else clause:

> apparentlyTerminates ffE (if' pp (ff xx) zero)
False

Of course, recursive calls as the condition are not allowed:

> apparentlyTerminates ffE (if' (odd' (ff xx)) zero zero)
False

mayNotEvaluateArgument :: Expr -> Bool

Checks if the given functional expression may refrain from evaluating its next argument.

> mayNotEvaluateArgument (plus :$ xx)
False

> mayNotEvaluateArgument (andE :$ pp)
True

This returns false for non-funcional value even if it involves an application which may not evaluate its argument.

> mayNotEvaluateArgument (andE :$ pp :$ qq)
False

This currently works by checking if the function is an if, && or ||.

compareSimplicity :: Expr -> Expr -> Ordering

O(n). Compares the simplicity of two Exprs. An expression e1 is strictly simpler than another expression e2 if the first of the following conditions to distingish between them is:

1. e1 is smaller in size/length than e2, e.g.: x + y < x + (y + z);
2. or, e1 has less variable occurrences than e2,
3. or, e1 has fewer distinct constants than e2, e.g.: 1 + 1 < 0 + 1.

They're otherwise considered of equal complexity, e.g.: x + y and y + z.

> (xx -+- yy) `compareComplexity` (xx -+- (yy -+- zz))
LT

> (xx -+- yy) `compareComplexity` (xx -+- xx)
EQ

> (xx -+- xx) `compareComplexity` (one -+- xx)
GT

> (one -+- one) `compareComplexity` (zero -+- one)

> (xx -+- yy) `compareComplexity` (yy -+- zz)
EQ

Creates an if Expr of the type of the given proxy.

> ifFor (undefined :: Int)

($$**) :: Expr -> Expr -> Maybe Expr

Like $$ but always works regardless of type.

Warning: just like :$, this may produce ill-typed expressions.

($$|<) :: Expr -> Expr -> Maybe Expr

Like $$ but relaxed to work on correct kinds.

> ordE $$|< zero
Just (ord 0 :: ill-typed # Char -> Int $ Int #)

revaluate :: Typeable a => (Expr, Expr) -> Int -> Expr -> Maybe a

Evaluates an Expr to a regular Haskell value using the given recursive definition and maximum number of recursive calls. If there's a type mismatch, this function returns Nothing.

enumerateAppsFor :: Expr -> (Expr -> Bool) -> [Expr] -> [[Expr]]

Enumerate applications between values of the given list of primitives and of the given expressions's type.

Arguments:

1. an Expr whose type we are interested in
2. a filtering function, returning True for the expressions to keep
3. a list of primitives to be used in building expression.

Result: a potentially infinite list of list of enumerated expressions

The enumeration here is type-directed for performance reasons.

enumerateFillings :: Expr -> [[Expr]] -> [[Expr]]

Given an expression whose holes are all of the same type and an enumeration of Exprs of this same type, enumerate all possible fillings of the original expression with the Exprs in the enumeration.
