Control.DeepSeq.Bounded.Seqable
Description
This module provides generic functions rnf_, force_ and seq_,
for efficient switching between n=0 and n=2 in the corresponding
'rnfn n', 'forcen n' and 'deepseqn n' (of NFDataN). This is useful for
connecting units of forcing (propagating demand). It was motivated
for use with auto-instrumentation, where seq_ can be injected
at every node of the AST (refer to the seqaid project).
Each SeqNode carries a couple bits of information, determining which
depth (0 or 2) is in effect, and whether to spark parallel evaluation
when the depth is 2. This state can be configured statically
or dynamically.
