Description

Difference lists: a data structure for O(1) append on lists.

Synopsis

Documentation

data DList a Source #

A difference list is a function that, given a list, returns the original contents of the difference list prepended to the given list.

This structure supports O(1) append and snoc operations on lists, making it very useful for append-heavy uses (esp. left-nested uses of ++), such as logging and pretty printing.

Here is an example using DList as the state type when printing a tree with the Writer monad:

import Control.Monad.Writer
import Data.DList

data Tree a = Leaf a | Branch (Tree a) (Tree a)

flatten_writer :: Tree x -> DList x
flatten_writer = snd . runWriter . flatten
    where
      flatten (Leaf x)     = tell (singleton x)
      flatten (Branch x y) = flatten x >> flatten y
