The Maybe
type encapsulates an optional value. A value of type
either contains a value of type Maybe
aa
(represented as
),
or it is empty (represented as Just
aNothing
). Using Maybe
is a good way to
deal with errors or exceptional cases without resorting to drastic
measures such as error
.
The Maybe
type is also a monad. It is a simple kind of error
monad, where all errors are represented by Nothing
. A richer
error monad can be built using the Either
type.
maybe :: b -> (a -> b) -> Maybe a -> b #
The maybe
function takes a default value, a function, and a Maybe
value. If the Maybe
value is Nothing
, the function returns the
default value. Otherwise, it applies the function to the value inside
the Just
and returns the result.
Examples
Basic usage:
>>>
maybe False odd (Just 3)
True
>>>
maybe False odd Nothing
False
Read an integer from a string using readMaybe
. If we succeed,
return twice the integer; that is, apply (*2)
to it. If instead
we fail to parse an integer, return 0
by default:
>>>
import Text.Read ( readMaybe )
>>>
maybe 0 (*2) (readMaybe "5")
10>>>
maybe 0 (*2) (readMaybe "")
0
Apply show
to a Maybe Int
. If we have Just n
, we want to show
the underlying Int
n
. But if we have Nothing
, we return the
empty string instead of (for example) "Nothing":
>>>
maybe "" show (Just 5)
"5">>>
maybe "" show Nothing
""
data Either a b :: * -> * -> * #
The Either
type represents values with two possibilities: a value of
type
is either Either
a b
or Left
a
.Right
b
The Either
type is sometimes used to represent a value which is
either correct or an error; by convention, the Left
constructor is
used to hold an error value and the Right
constructor is used to
hold a correct value (mnemonic: "right" also means "correct").
Examples
The type
is the type of values which can be either
a Either
String
Int
String
or an Int
. The Left
constructor can be used only on
String
s, and the Right
constructor can be used only on Int
s:
>>>
let s = Left "foo" :: Either String Int
>>>
s
Left "foo">>>
let n = Right 3 :: Either String Int
>>>
n
Right 3>>>
:type s
s :: Either String Int>>>
:type n
n :: Either String Int
The fmap
from our Functor
instance will ignore Left
values, but
will apply the supplied function to values contained in a Right
:
>>>
let s = Left "foo" :: Either String Int
>>>
let n = Right 3 :: Either String Int
>>>
fmap (*2) s
Left "foo">>>
fmap (*2) n
Right 6
The Monad
instance for Either
allows us to chain together multiple
actions which may fail, and fail overall if any of the individual
steps failed. First we'll write a function that can either parse an
Int
from a Char
, or fail.
>>>
import Data.Char ( digitToInt, isDigit )
>>>
:{
let parseEither :: Char -> Either String Int parseEither c | isDigit c = Right (digitToInt c) | otherwise = Left "parse error">>>
:}
The following should work, since both '1'
and '2'
can be
parsed as Int
s.
>>>
:{
let parseMultiple :: Either String Int parseMultiple = do x <- parseEither '1' y <- parseEither '2' return (x + y)>>>
:}
>>>
parseMultiple
Right 3
But the following should fail overall, since the first operation where
we attempt to parse 'm'
as an Int
will fail:
>>>
:{
let parseMultiple :: Either String Int parseMultiple = do x <- parseEither 'm' y <- parseEither '2' return (x + y)>>>
:}
>>>
parseMultiple
Left "parse error"
either :: (a -> c) -> (b -> c) -> Either a b -> c #
Case analysis for the Either
type.
If the value is
, apply the first function to Left
aa
;
if it is
, apply the second function to Right
bb
.
Examples
We create two values of type
, one using the
Either
String
Int
Left
constructor and another using the Right
constructor. Then
we apply "either" the length
function (if we have a String
)
or the "times-two" function (if we have an Int
):
>>>
let s = Left "foo" :: Either String Int
>>>
let n = Right 3 :: Either String Int
>>>
either length (*2) s
3>>>
either length (*2) n

The character type Char
is an enumeration whose values represent
Unicode (or equivalently ISO/IEC 10646) characters (see
http://www.unicode.org/ for details). This set extends the ISO 8859-1
(Latin-1) character set (the first 256 characters), which is itself an extension
of the ASCII character set (the first 128 characters). A character literal in
Haskell has type Char
.
To convert a Char
to or from the corresponding Int
value defined
by Unicode, use toEnum
and fromEnum
from the
Enum
class respectively (or equivalently ord
and chr
).

uncurry :: (a -> b -> c) -> (a, b) -> c #
uncurry
converts a curried function to a function on pairs.
Basic type classes
The Eq
class defines equality (==
) and inequality (/=
).
All the basic datatypes exported by the Prelude are instances of Eq
,
and Eq
may be derived for any datatype whose constituents are also
instances of Eq
.
The Ord
class is used for totally ordered datatypes.
Instances of Ord
can be derived for any user-defined
datatype whose constituent types are in Ord
. The declared order
of the constructors in the data declaration determines the ordering
in derived Ord
instances. The Ordering
datatype allows a single
comparison to determine the precise ordering of two objects.
Minimal complete definition: either compare
or <=
.
Using compare
can be more efficient for complex types.
compare :: a -> a -> Ordering #
(<) :: a -> a -> Bool infix 4 #
(<=) :: a -> a -> Bool infix 4 #
(>) :: a -> a -> Bool infix 4 #
Class Enum
defines operations on sequentially ordered types.
The enumFrom
... methods are used in Haskell's translation of
arithmetic sequences.
Instances of Enum
may be derived for any enumeration type (types
whose constructors have no fields). The nullary constructors are
assumed to be numbered left-to-right by fromEnum
from 0
through n-1
.
See Chapter 10 of the Haskell Report for more details.
For any type that is an instance of class Bounded
as well as Enum
,
the following should hold:
- The calls
andsucc
maxBound
should result in a runtime error.pred
minBound
fromEnum
andtoEnum
should give a runtime error if the result value is not representable in the result type. For example,
is an error.toEnum
7 ::Bool
enumFrom
andenumFromThen
should be defined with an implicit bound, thus:
enumFrom x = enumFromTo x maxBound enumFromThen x y = enumFromThenTo x y bound where bound | fromEnum y >= fromEnum x = maxBound | otherwise = minBound
the successor of a value. For numeric types, succ
adds 1.
the predecessor of a value. For numeric types, pred
subtracts 1.
Convert from an Int
.
Convert to an Int
.
It is implementation-dependent what fromEnum
returns when
applied to a value that is too large to fit in an Int
.
Used in Haskell's translation of [n..]
.
enumFromThen :: a -> a -> [a] #
Used in Haskell's translation of [n,n'..]
.
enumFromTo :: a -> a -> [a] #
Used in Haskell's translation of [n..m]
.
enumFromThenTo :: a -> a -> a -> [a] #
Used in Haskell's translation of [n,n'..m]
.
The Bounded
class is used to name the upper and lower limits of a
type. Ord
is not a superclass of Bounded
since types that are not
totally ordered may also have upper and lower bounds.
The Bounded
class may be derived for any enumeration type;
minBound
is the first constructor listed in the data
declaration
and maxBound
is the last.
Bounded
may also be derived for single-constructor datatypes whose
constituent types are in Bounded
.
Numbers
Numeric types
A fixed-precision integer type with at least the range [-2^29 .. 2^29-1]
.
The exact range for a given implementation can be determined by using
minBound
and maxBound
from the Bounded
class.

Monoids
The class of monoids (types with an associative binary operation that has an identity). Instances should satisfy the following laws:
mappend mempty x = x
mappend x mempty = x
mappend x (mappend y z) = mappend (mappend x y) z
mconcat =
foldr
mappend mempty
The method names refer to the monoid of lists under concatenation, but there are many other instances.
Some types can be viewed as a monoid in more than one way,
e.g. both addition and multiplication on numbers.
In such cases we often define newtype
s and make those instances
of Monoid
, e.g. Sum
and Product
.
Identity of mappend
An associative operation
Fold a list using the monoid.
For most types, the default definition for mconcat
will be
used, but the function is included in the class definition so
that an optimized version can be provided for specific types.

(Monads and) functors
class Functor (f :: * -> *) where #
The Functor
class is used for types that can be mapped over.
Instances of Functor
should satisfy the following laws:
fmap id == id fmap (f . g) == fmap f . fmap g
The instances of Functor
for lists, Maybe
and IO
satisfy these laws.
(<$>) :: Functor f => (a -> b) -> f a -> f b infixl 4 #
An infix synonym for fmap
.
The name of this operator is an allusion to $
.
Note the similarities between their types:
($) :: (a -> b) -> a -> b (<$>) :: Functor f => (a -> b) -> f a -> f b
Whereas $
is function application, <$>
is function
application lifted over a Functor
.

Folds and traversals
class Foldable (t :: * -> *) where #
Data structures that can be folded.
For example, given a data type
data Tree a = Empty | Leaf a | Node (Tree a) a (Tree a)
a suitable instance would be
instance Foldable Tree where foldMap f Empty = mempty foldMap f (Leaf x) = f x foldMap f (Node l k r) = foldMap f l `mappend` f k `mappend` foldMap f r
This is suitable even for abstract types, as the monoid is assumed
to satisfy the monoid laws. Alternatively, one could define foldr
:
instance Foldable Tree where foldr f z Empty = z foldr f z (Leaf x) = f x z foldr f z (Node l k r) = foldr f (f k (foldr f z r)) l
Foldable
instances are expected to satisfy the following laws:
foldr f z t = appEndo (foldMap (Endo . f) t ) z
foldl f z t = appEndo (getDual (foldMap (Dual . Endo . flip f) t)) z
fold = foldMap id
sum
, product
, maximum
, and minimum
should all be essentially
equivalent to foldMap
forms, such as
sum = getSum . foldMap Sum
but may be less defined.
If the type is also a Functor
instance, it should satisfy
foldMap f = fold . fmap f
which implies that
foldMap f . fmap g = foldMap (f . g)
foldMap :: Monoid m => (a -> m) -> t a -> m #
Map each element of the structure to a monoid, and combine the results.
foldr :: (a -> b -> b) -> b -> t a -> b #
Right-associative fold of a structure.
In the case of lists, foldr
, when applied to a binary operator, a
starting value (typically the right-identity of the operator), and a
list, reduces the list using the binary operator, from right to left:
foldr f z [x1, x2, ..., xn] == x1 `f` (x2 `f` ... (xn `f` z)...)
Note that, since the head of the resulting expression is produced by
an application of the operator to the first element of the list,
foldr
can produce a terminating expression from an infinite list.
For a general Foldable
structure this should be semantically identical
to,
foldr f z =foldr
f z .toList
foldl :: (b -> a -> b) -> b -> t a -> b #
Left-associative fold of a structure.
In the case of lists, foldl
, when applied to a binary
operator, a starting value (typically the left-identity of the operator),
and a list, reduces the list using the binary operator, from left to
right:
foldl f z [x1, x2, ..., xn] == (...((z `f` x1) `f` x2) `f`...) `f` xn
Note that to produce the outermost application of the operator the
entire input list must be traversed. This means that foldl'
will
diverge if given an infinite list.
Also note that if you want an efficient left-fold, you probably want to
use foldl'
instead of foldl
. The reason for this is that latter does
not force the "inner" results (e.g. z
in the above example)
before applying them to the operator (e.g. to f
x1(
). This results
in a thunk chain f
x2)O(n)
elements long, which then must be evaluated from
the outside-in.
For a general Foldable
structure this should be semantically identical
to,
foldl f z =foldl
f z .toList
foldr1 :: (a -> a -> a) -> t a -> a #
A variant of foldr
that has no base case,
and thus may only be applied to non-empty structures.
foldr1
f =foldr1
f .toList
foldl1 :: (a -> a -> a) -> t a -> a #
A variant of foldl
that has no base case,
and thus may only be applied to non-empty structures.
foldl1
f =foldl1
f .toList
Test whether the structure is empty. The default implementation is optimized for structures that are similar to cons-lists, because there is no general way to do better.
Returns the size/length of a finite structure as an Int
. The
default implementation is optimized for structures that are similar to
cons-lists, because there is no general way to do better.
elem :: Eq a => a -> t a -> Bool infix 4 #
Does the element occur in the structure?
maximum :: Ord a => t a -> a #
The largest element of a non-empty structure.
minimum :: Ord a => t a -> a #
The least element of a non-empty structure.
The sum
function computes the sum of the numbers of a structure.
product :: Num a => t a -> a #
The product
function computes the product of the numbers of a
structure.
class (Functor t, Foldable t) => Traversable (t :: * -> *) where #
Functors representing data structures that can be traversed from left to right.
A definition of traverse
must satisfy the following laws:
- naturality
t .
for every applicative transformationtraverse
f =traverse
(t . f)t
- identity
traverse
Identity = Identity- composition
traverse
(Compose .fmap
g . f) = Compose .fmap
(traverse
g) .traverse
f
A definition of sequenceA
must satisfy the following laws:
- naturality
t .
for every applicative transformationsequenceA
=sequenceA
.fmap
tt
- identity
sequenceA
.fmap
Identity = Identity- composition
sequenceA
.fmap
Compose = Compose .fmap
sequenceA
.sequenceA
where an applicative transformation is a function
t :: (Applicative f, Applicative g) => f a -> g a
preserving the Applicative
operations, i.e.
and the identity functor Identity
and composition of functors Compose
are defined as
newtype Identity a = Identity a instance Functor Identity where fmap f (Identity x) = Identity (f x) instance Applicative Identity where pure x = Identity x Identity f <*> Identity x = Identity (f x) newtype Compose f g a = Compose (f (g a)) instance (Functor f, Functor g) => Functor (Compose f g) where fmap f (Compose x) = Compose (fmap (fmap f) x) instance (Applicative f, Applicative g) => Applicative (Compose f g) where pure x = Compose (pure (pure x)) Compose f <*> Compose x = Compose ((<*>) <$> f <*> x)
(The naturality law is implied by parametricity.)
Instances are similar to Functor
, e.g. given a data type
data Tree a = Empty | Leaf a | Node (Tree a) a (Tree a)
a suitable instance would be
instance Traversable Tree where traverse f Empty = pure Empty traverse f (Leaf x) = Leaf <$> f x traverse f (Node l k r) = Node <$> traverse f l <*> f k <*> traverse f r
This is suitable even for abstract types, as the laws for <*>
imply a form of associativity.
The superclass instances should satisfy the following:
- In the
Functor
instance,fmap
should be equivalent to traversal with the identity applicative functor (fmapDefault
). - In the
Foldable
instance,foldMap
should be equivalent to traversal with a constant applicative functor (foldMapDefault
).
traverse :: Applicative f => (a -> f b) -> t a -> f (t b) #
Map each element of a structure to an action, evaluate these actions
from left to right, and collect the results. For a version that ignores
the results see traverse_
.
sequenceA :: Applicative f => t (f a) -> f (t a) #
Evaluate each action in the structure from left to right, and
and collect the results. For a version that ignores the results
see sequenceA_
.
Miscellaneous functions
const x
is a unary function which evaluates to x
for all inputs.
For instance,
>>>
map (const 42) [0..3]
[42,42,42,42]
flip :: (a -> b -> c) -> b -> a -> c #
takes its (first) two arguments in the reverse order of flip
ff
.
until :: (a -> Bool) -> (a -> a) -> a -> a #
yields the result of applying until
p ff
until p
holds.
error :: HasCallStack => [Char] -> a #
error
stops execution and displays an error message.
undefined :: HasCallStack => a #
The value of seq a b
is bottom if a
is bottom, and
otherwise equal to b
. seq
is usually introduced to
improve performance by avoiding unneeded laziness.
A note on evaluation order: the expression seq a b
does
not guarantee that a
will be evaluated before b
.
The only guarantee given by seq
is that the both a
and b
will be evaluated before seq
returns a value.
In particular, this means that b
may be evaluated before
a
. If you need to guarantee a specific order of evaluation,
you must use the function pseq
from the "parallel" package.
($) :: (a -> b) -> a -> b infixr 0 #
Application operator. This operator is redundant, since ordinary
application (f x)
means the same as (f
. However, $
x)$
has
low, right-associative binding precedence, so it sometimes allows
parentheses to be omitted; for example:
f $ g $ h x = f (g (h x))

Searching lists

Zipping and unzipping lists

unzip
transforms a list of pairs into a list of first components
and a list of second components.
Functions on strings
lines
breaks a string up into a list of strings at newline
characters. The resulting strings do not contain newlines.
Note that after splitting the string at newline characters, the last part of the string is considered a line even if it doesn't end with a newline. For example,
lines "" == [] lines "\n" == [""] lines "one" == ["one"] lines "one\n" == ["one"] lines "one\n\n" == ["one",""] lines "one\ntwo" == ["one","two"] lines "one\ntwo\n" == ["one","two"]
Thus
contains at least as many elements as newlines in lines
ss
.
words
breaks a string up into a list of words, which were delimited
by white space.
Converting from and to String
Converting to String
Conversion of values to readable String
s.
Derived instances of Show
have the following properties, which
are compatible with derived instances of Read
:
- The result of
show
is a syntactically correct Haskell expression containing only constants, given the fixity declarations in force at the point where the type is declared. It contains only the constructor names defined in the data type, parentheses, and spaces. When labelled constructor fields are used, braces, commas, field names, and equal signs are also used. - If the constructor is defined to be an infix operator, then
showsPrec
will produce infix applications of the constructor. - the representation will be enclosed in parentheses if the
precedence of the top-level constructor in
x
is less thand
(associativity is ignored). Thus, ifd
is0
then the result is never surrounded in parentheses; ifd
is11
it is always surrounded in parentheses, unless it is an atomic expression. - If the constructor is defined using record syntax, then
show
will produce the record-syntax form, with the fields given in the same order as the original declaration.
For example, given the declarations
infixr 5 :^: data Tree a = Leaf a | Tree a :^: Tree a
the derived instance of Show
is equivalent to

Note that right-associativity of :^:
is ignored. For example,

Derived instances of Read
make the following assumptions, which
derived instances of Show
obey:
- If the constructor is defined to be an infix operator, then the
derived
Read
instance will parse only infix applications of the constructor (not the prefix form). - Associativity is not used to reduce the occurrence of parentheses, although precedence may be.
- If the constructor is defined using record syntax, the derived
Read
will parse only the record-syntax form, and furthermore, the fields must be given in the same order as the original declaration. - The derived
Read
instance allows arbitrary Haskell whitespace between tokens of the input string. Extra parentheses are also allowed.
For example, given the declarations
infixr 5 :^: data Tree a = Leaf a | Tree a :^: Tree a
the derived instance of Read
in Haskell 2010 is equivalent to
instance (Read a) => Read (Tree a) where readsPrec d r = readParen (d > app_prec) (\r -> [(Leaf m,t) | ("Leaf",s) <- lex r, (m,t) <- readsPrec (app_prec+1) s]) r ++ readParen (d > up_prec) (\r -> [(u:^:v,w) | (u,s) <- readsPrec (up_prec+1) r, (":^:",t) <- lex s, (v,w) <- readsPrec (up_prec+1) t]) r where app_prec = 10 up_prec = 5
Note that right-associativity of :^:
is unused.
The derived instance in GHC is equivalent to
instance (Read a) => Read (Tree a) where readPrec = parens $ (prec app_prec $ do Ident "Leaf" <- lexP m <- step readPrec return (Leaf m)) +++ (prec up_prec $ do u <- step readPrec Symbol ":^:" <- lexP v <- step readPrec return (u :^: v)) where app_prec = 10 up_prec = 5 readListPrec = readListPrecDefault
Why do both readsPrec
and readPrec
exist, and why does GHC opt to
implement readPrec
in derived Read
instances instead of readsPrec
?
The reason is that readsPrec
is based on the ReadS
type, and although
ReadS
is mentioned in the Haskell 2010 Report, it is not a very efficient
parser data structure.
readPrec
, on the other hand, is based on a much more efficient ReadPrec
datatype (a.k.a "new-style parsers"), but its definition relies on the use
of the RankNTypes
language extension. Therefore, readPrec
(and its
cousin, readListPrec
) are marked as GHC-only. Nevertheless, it is
recommended to use readPrec
instead of readsPrec
whenever possible
for the efficiency improvements it brings.
As mentioned above, derived Read
instances in GHC will implement
readPrec
instead of readsPrec
. The default implementations of
readsPrec
(and its cousin, readList
) will simply use readPrec
under
the hood. If you are writing a Read
instance by hand, it is recommended
to write it like so:
instanceRead
T wherereadPrec
= ...readListPrec
=readListPrecDefault

read :: Read a => String -> a #
The read
function reads input from a string, which must be
completely consumed by the input process.
The lex
function reads a single lexeme from the input, discarding
initial white space, and returning the characters that constitute the
lexeme. If the input string contains only white space, lex
returns a
single successful `lexeme' consisting of the empty string. (Thus
.) If there is no legal lexeme at the
beginning of the input string, lex
"" = [("","")]lex
fails (i.e. returns []
).
This lexer is not completely faithful to the Haskell lexical syntax in the following respects:
- Qualified names are not handled properly
- Octal and hexadecimal numerics are not recognized as a single token
- Comments are not treated properly
Basic input and output
A value of type
is a computation which, when performed,
does some I/O before returning a value of type IO
aa
.
There is really only one way to "perform" an I/O action: bind it to
Main.main
in your program. When your program is run, the I/O will
be performed. It isn't possible to perform I/O from an arbitrary
function, unless that function is itself in the IO
monad and called
at some point, directly or indirectly, from Main.main
.
IO
is a monad, so IO
actions can be combined using either the do-notation
or the >>
and >>=
operations from the Monad
class.
Simple I/O operations
Output functions
print :: Show a => a -> IO () #
The print
function outputs a value of any printable type to the
standard output device.
Printable types are those that are instances of class Show
; print
converts values to strings for output using the show
operation and
adds a newline.
For example, a program to print the first 20 integers and their powers of 2 could be written as:
main = print ([(n, 2^n) | n <- [0..19]])
Input functions
getContents :: IO String #
The getContents
operation returns all user input as a single string,
which is read lazily as it is needed
(same as hGetContents
stdin
).
interact :: (String -> String) -> IO () #
The interact
function takes a function of type String->String
as its argument. The entire input from the standard input device is
passed to this function as its argument, and the resulting string is
output on the standard output device.
Files
File and directory names are values of type String
, whose precise
meaning is operating system dependent. Files can be opened, yielding a
handle which can then be used to operate on the contents of that file.
readFile :: FilePath -> IO String #
The readFile
function reads a file and
returns the contents of the file as a string.
The file is read lazily, on demand, as with getContents
.
writeFile :: FilePath -> String -> IO () #
The computation writeFile
file str
function writes the string str
,
to the file file
.
appendFile :: FilePath -> String -> IO () #
The computation appendFile
file str
function appends the string str
,
to the file file
.
Note that writeFile
and appendFile
write a literal string
to a file. To write a value of any printable type, as with print
,
use the show
function to convert the value to a string first.
main = appendFile "squares" (show [(x,x*x) | x <- [0,0.1..2]])
Exception handing in the I/O monad
type IOError = IOException #
