newtype Codensity m a Source #

Codensity f is the Monad generated by taking the right Kan extension of any Functor f along itself (Ran f f).

This can often be more "efficient" to construct than f itself using repeated applications of (>>=).

Constructors

 Codensity FieldsrunCodensity :: forall b. (a -> m b) -> m b

Instances

lowerCodensity :: Applicative f => Codensity f a -> f a Source #

This serves as the *left*-inverse (retraction) of lift.

lowerCodensity . lift ≡ id


In general this is not a full 2-sided inverse, merely a retraction, as Codensity m is often considerably "larger" than m.

e.g. Codensity ((->) s)) a ~ forall r. (a -> s -> r) -> s -> r could support a full complement of MonadState s actions, while (->) s is limited to MonadReader s actions.

codensityToAdjunction :: Adjunction f g => Codensity g a -> g (f a) Source #

The Codensity monad of a right adjoint is isomorphic to the monad obtained from the Adjunction.

codensityToAdjunction . adjunctionToCodensity ≡ id
adjunctionToCodensity . codensityToAdjunction ≡ id


codensityToRan :: Codensity g a -> Ran g g a Source #

The Codensity Monad of a Functor g is the right Kan extension (Ran) of g along itself.

codensityToRan . ranToCodensity ≡ id
ranToCodensity . codensityToRan ≡ id


codensityToComposedRep :: Representable u => Codensity u a -> u (Rep u, a) Source #

The Codensity monad of a representable Functor is isomorphic to the monad obtained from the Adjunction for which that Functor is the right adjoint.

codensityToComposedRep . composedRepToCodensity ≡ id
composedRepToCodensity . codensityToComposedRep ≡ id

codensityToComposedRep = ranToComposedRep . codensityToRan


composedRepToCodensity :: Representable u => u (Rep u, a) -> Codensity u a Source #

composedRepToCodensity = ranToCodensity . composedRepToRan


improve :: Functor f => (forall m. MonadFree f m => m a) -> Free f a Source #

Right associate all binds in a computation that generates a free monad

This can improve the asymptotic efficiency of the result, while preserving semantics.
