# Documentation

Compared to the free monad transformers, they are less expressive. However, they are also more flexible to inspect and interpret, as the number of ways in which the values can be nested is more limited.

See Free Applicative Functors, by Paolo Capriotti and Ambrus Kaposi, for some applications.

newtype ApT f g a #

The free `Applicative` transformer for a `Functor` `f` over `Applicative` `g`.

liftApT :: Applicative g => f a -> ApT f g a #

A version of `lift` that can be used with no constraint for `f`.

liftApO :: Functor g => g a -> ApT f g a #

Lift an action of the "outer" `Functor` `g a` to ``ApT` f g a`.

runApT :: (Applicative h, Functor g) => (forall a. f a -> h a) -> (forall a. g (h a) -> h a) -> ApT f g b -> h b #

Given natural transformations `f ~> h` and `g . h ~> h` this gives a natural transformation `ApT f g ~> h`.

runApF :: (Applicative h, Functor g) => (forall a. f a -> h a) -> (forall a. g (h a) -> h a) -> ApF f g b -> h b #

Given natural transformations `f ~> h` and `g . h ~> h` this gives a natural transformation `ApF f g ~> h`.

runApT_ :: (Functor g, Monoid m) => (forall a. f a -> m) -> (g m -> m) -> ApT f g b -> m #

Perform a monoidal analysis over ``ApT` f g b` value.

Examples:

    height :: (Functor g, Foldable g) => ApT f g a -> Int
    height = getSum . runApT_ (_ -> Sum 1) maximum

    size :: (Functor g, Foldable g) => ApT f g a -> Int
    size = getSum . runApT_ (_ -> Sum 1) fold

hoistApT :: Functor g => (forall a. f a -> f' a) -> ApT f g b -> ApT f' g b #

Given a natural transformation from `f` to `f'` this gives a monoidal natural transformation from `ApT f g` to `ApT f' g`.

hoistApF :: Functor g => (forall a. f a -> f' a) -> ApF f g b -> ApF f' g b #

Given a natural transformation from `f` to `f'` this gives a monoidal natural transformation from `ApF f g` to `ApF f' g`.

transApT :: Functor g => (forall a. g a -> g' a) -> ApT f g b -> ApT f g' b #

Given a natural transformation from `g` to `g'` this gives a monoidal natural transformation from `ApT f g` to `ApT f g'`.

transApF :: Functor g => (forall a. g a -> g' a) -> ApF f g b -> ApF f g' b #

Given a natural transformation from `g` to `g'` this gives a monoidal natural transformation from `ApF f g` to `ApF f g'`.

joinApT :: Monad m => ApT f m a -> m (Ap f a) #

Pull out and join `m` layers of ``ApT` f m a`.

# Free Applicative

type Ap f = ApT f Identity #

The free `Applicative` for a `Functor` `f`.

runAp :: Applicative g => (forall x. f x -> g x) -> Ap f a -> g a #

Given a natural transformation from `f` to `g`, this gives a canonical monoidal natural transformation from ``Ap` f` to `g`.

    runAp t == retractApp . hoistApp t

runAp_ :: Monoid m => (forall x. f x -> m) -> Ap f a -> m #

Perform a monoidal analysis over free applicative value.

Example:

    count :: Ap f a -> Int
    count = getSum . runAp_ (\_ -> Sum 1)

retractAp :: Applicative f => Ap f a -> f a #

Interprets the free applicative functor over f using the semantics for `pure` and `<*>` given by the Applicative instance for f.

    retractApp == runAp id

# Free Alternative

type Alt f = ApT f [] #

The free `Alternative` for a `Functor` `f`.

runAlt :: (Alternative g, Foldable t) => (forall x. f x -> g x) -> ApT f t a -> g a #

Given a natural transformation from `f` to `g`, this gives a canonical monoidal natural transformation from ``Alt` f` to `g`.
