{-# LANGUAGE BangPatterns #-}

-- | Provides a convenient and fast alternative to the common
-- @forM_ [1..n]@ idiom, which in many cases GHC cannot fuse to efficient
-- code.
--
-- Notes on fast iteration:
--
-- * For `Int`, @(+1)@ is almost twice as fast as `succ` because `succ`
--   does an overflow check.
--
-- * For `Int`, you can get around that while still using `Enum` using
--   @toEnum . (+ 1) . fromEnum@.
--
-- * However, @toEnum . (+ 1) . fromEnum@ is slower than `succ` for
--   `Word32` on 64-bit machines since `toEnum` has to check if the
--   given `Int` exceeds 32 bits.
--
-- * Using @(+1)@ from `Num` is always the fastest way, but it gives
--   no overflow checking.
--
-- * Using `forLoop` you can flexibly pick the way of increasing the value
--   that best fits your needs.
--
-- * The currently recommended replacement for @forM_ [1..n]@ is
--   @forLoop 1 (<= n) (+1)@.
