constrFixity :: Constr -> Fixityghc-internal GHC.Internal.Data.Data Gets the fixity of a constructor

ghc-internal GHC.Internal.Data.Function fix f is the least fixed point of the function f, i.e. the least defined x such that f x = x. When f is strict, this means that because, by the definition of strictness, f ⊥ = ⊥ and such the least defined fixed point of any strict function is ⊥.
Examples
We can write the factorial function using direct recursion as>>> let fac n = if n <= 1 then 1 else n * fac (n-1) in fac 5 120
This uses the fact that Haskell’s let introduces recursive bindings. We can rewrite this definition using fix, Instead of making a recursive call, we introduce a dummy parameter rec; when used within fix, this parameter then refers to fix’s argument, hence the recursion is reintroduced.>>> fix (\rec n -> if n <= 1 then 1 else n * rec (n-1)) 5 120
Using fix, we can implement versions of repeat as fix . (:) and cycle as fix . (++)>>> take 10 $ fix (0:) [0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0]
>>> map (fix (\rec n -> if n < 2 then n else rec (n - 1) + rec (n - 2))) [1..10] [1,1,2,3,5,8,13,21,34,55]
Implementation Details
The current implementation of fix uses structural sharingfix f = let x = f x in x
A more straightforward but non-sharing version would look likefix f = f (fix f)
isInfixOf :: Eq a => [a] -> [a] -> Boolghc-internal GHC.Internal.Data.List The isInfixOf function takes two lists and returns True iff the first list is contained, wholly and intact, anywhere within the second.
Examples
>>> isInfixOf "Haskell" "I really like Haskell." True
>>> isInfixOf "Ial" "I really like Haskell." False
For the result to be True, the first list must be finite; for the result to be False, the second list must be finite:>>> [20..50] `isInfixOf` [0..] True
>>> [0..] `isInfixOf` [20..50] False
>>> [0..] `isInfixOf` [0..] * Hangs forever *
isPrefixOf :: Eq a => [a] -> [a] -> Boolghc-internal GHC.Internal.Data.List The isPrefixOf function takes two lists and returns True iff the first list is a prefix of the second.
Examples
>>> "Hello" `isPrefixOf` "Hello World!" True
>>> "Hello" `isPrefixOf` "Wello Horld!" False
For the result to be True, the first list must be finite; False, however, results from any mismatch:>>> [0..] `isPrefixOf` [1..] False
>>> [0..] `isPrefixOf` [0..99] False
>>> [0..99] `isPrefixOf` [0..] True
>>> [0..] `isPrefixOf` [0..] * Hangs forever *
isPrefixOf shortcuts when the first argument is empty:>>> isPrefixOf [] undefined True
isSuffixOf :: Eq a => [a] -> [a] -> Boolghc-internal GHC.Internal.Data.List The isSuffixOf function takes two lists and returns True iff the first list is a suffix of the second.
Examples
>>> "ld!" `isSuffixOf` "Hello World!" True
>>> "World" `isSuffixOf` "Hello World!" False
The second list must be finite; however the first list may be infinite:>>> [0..] `isSuffixOf` [0..99] False
>>> [0..99] `isSuffixOf` [0..] * Hangs forever *
stripPrefix :: Eq a => [a] -> [a] -> Maybe [a]ghc-internal GHC.Internal.Data.List The stripPrefix function drops the given prefix from a list. It returns Nothing if the list did not start with the prefix given, or Just the list after the prefix, if it does.
Examples
>>> stripPrefix "foo" "foobar" Just "bar"
>>> stripPrefix "foo" "foo" Just ""
>>> stripPrefix "foo" "barfoo" Nothing
>>> stripPrefix "foo" "barfoobaz" Nothing
isInfixOf :: Eq a => [a] -> [a] -> Boolghc-internal GHC.Internal.Data.OldList The isInfixOf function takes two lists and returns True iff the first list is contained, wholly and intact, anywhere within the second.
Examples
>>> isInfixOf "Haskell" "I really like Haskell." True
>>> isInfixOf "Ial" "I really like Haskell." False
For the result to be True, the first list must be finite; for the result to be False, the second list must be finite:>>> [20..50] `isInfixOf` [0..] True
>>> [0..] `isInfixOf` [20..50] False
>>> [0..] `isInfixOf` [0..] * Hangs forever *
isPrefixOf :: Eq a => [a] -> [a] -> Boolghc-internal GHC.Internal.Data.OldList The isPrefixOf function takes two lists and returns True iff the first list is a prefix of the second.
Examples
>>> "Hello" `isPrefixOf` "Hello World!" True
>>> "Hello" `isPrefixOf` "Wello Horld!" False
For the result to be True, the first list must be finite; False, however, results from any mismatch:>>> [0..] `isPrefixOf` [1..] False
>>> [0..] `isPrefixOf` [0..99] False
>>> [0..99] `isPrefixOf` [0..] True
>>> [0..] `isPrefixOf` [0..] * Hangs forever *
isPrefixOf shortcuts when the first argument is empty:>>> isPrefixOf [] undefined True
