Description

"Applicative Effects in Free Monads"

Often times, the '(*)' operator can be more efficient than ap. Conventional free monads don't provide any means of modeling this. The free monad can be modified to make use of an underlying applicative. But it does require some laws, or else the '(*)' = ap law is broken. When interpreting this free monad with foldFree, the natural transformation must be an applicative homomorphism. An applicative homomorphism hm :: (Applicative f, Applicative g) => f x -> g x will satisfy these laws.

  • hm (pure a) = pure a
  • hm (f * a) = hm f * hm a

This is based on the "Applicative Effects in Free Monads" series of articles by Will Fancher

Synopsis

Documentation

class Monad m => MonadFree f m | m -> f where Source #

Monads provide substitution (fmap) and renormalization (join):

m >>= f = join (fmap f m)

A free Monad is one that does no work during the normalization step beyond simply grafting the two monadic values together.

[] is not a free Monad (in this sense) because join [[a]] smashes the lists flat.

On the other hand, consider:

data Tree a = Bin (Tree a) (Tree a) | Tip a
instance Monad Tree where
  return = Tip
  Tip a >>= f = f a
  Bin l r >>= f = Bin (l >>= f) (r >>= f)

This Monad is the free Monad of Pair:

data Pair a = Pair a a

And we could make an instance of MonadFree for it directly:

instance MonadFree Pair Tree where
   wrap (Pair l r) = Bin l r

Or we could choose to program with Free Pair instead of Tree and thereby avoid having to define our own Monad instance.

Moreover, Control.Monad.Free.Church provides a MonadFree instance that can improve the asymptotic complexity of code that constructs free monads by effectively reassociating the use of (>>=). You may also want to take a look at the kan-extensions package (http://hackage.haskell.org/package/kan-extensions).

See Free for a more formal definition of the free Monad for a Functor.

retract :: (Applicative f, Monad f) => Free f a -> f a Source #

retract is the left inverse of lift and liftF

retract . lift = id
retract . liftF = id

liftF :: (Functor f, MonadFree f m) => f a -> m a Source #

A version of lift that can be used with just a Functor for f.

iter :: Applicative f => (f a -> a) -> Free f a -> a Source #

Given an applicative homomorphism from f to Identity, tear down a Free Monad using iteration.

iterA :: (Applicative p, Applicative f) => (f (p a) -> p a) -> Free f a -> p a Source #

Like iter for applicative values.

Like iter for monadic values.

Lift an applicative homomorphism from f to g into a monad homomorphism from Free f to Free g.

foldFree :: (Applicative f, Applicative m, Monad m) => (forall x. f x -> m x) -> Free f a -> m a Source #

Given an applicative homomorphism, you get a monad homomorphism.

toFreeT :: (Applicative f, Applicative m, Monad m) => Free f a -> FreeT f m a Source #

Convert a Free monad from Control.Monad.Free.Ap to a FreeT monad from Control.Monad.Trans.Free.Ap. WARNING: This assumes that liftF is an applicative homomorphism.

cutoff :: Applicative f => Integer -> Free f a -> Free f (Maybe a) Source #

Cuts off a tree of computations at a given depth. If the depth is 0 or less, no computation nor monadic effects will take place.

Some examples (n ≥ 0):

cutoff 0     _        == return Nothing
cutoff (n+1) . return == return . Just
cutoff (n+1) . lift   ==   lift . liftM Just
cutoff (n+1) . wrap   ==  wrap . fmap (cutoff n)

Calling 'retract . cutoff n' is always terminating, provided each of the steps in the iteration is terminating.
