\subsection{The Eager monad}
%*									*
%************************************************************************

The @Eager@ monad is just an encoding of continuation-passing style,
used to allow you to express "do this and then that", mainly to avoid
space leaks. It's done with a type synonym to save bureaucracy.

\begin{code}
#if NOT_USED

type Eager ans a = (a -> ans) -> ans

runEager :: Eager a a -> a
runEager m = m (\x -> x)

appEager :: Eager ans a -> (a -> ans) -> ans
appEager m cont = m cont

thenEager :: Eager ans a -> (a -> Eager ans b) -> Eager ans b
thenEager m k cont = m (\r -> k r cont)

returnEager :: a -> Eager ans a
returnEager v cont = cont v

mapEager :: (a -> Eager ans b) -> [a] -> Eager ans [b]
mapEager f [] = returnEager []
mapEager f (x:xs) = f x			`thenEager` \ y ->
		    mapEager f xs	`thenEager` \ ys ->
		    returnEager (y:ys)
#endif
\end{code}

%************************************************************************
%*									*
\subsection{A for loop}
%*									*
%************************************************************************

\begin{code}
-- Compose a function with itself n times.  (nth rather than twice)
nTimes :: Int -> (a -> a) -> (a -> a)
nTimes 0 _ = id
nTimes 1 f = f
nTimes n f = f . nTimes (n-1) f
\end{code}

%************************************************************************
%*									*
\subsection[Utils-lists]{General list processing}
%*									*
%************************************************************************

\begin{code}
filterOut :: (a->Bool) -> [a] -> [a]
-- Like filter, only reverses the sense of the test
filterOut p [] = []
filterOut p (x:xs) | p x       = filterOut p xs
		   | otherwise = x : filterOut p xs
\end{code}

A paranoid @zip@ (and some @zipWith@ friends) that checks the lists
are of equal length.  Alastair Reid thinks this should only happen if
DEBUGging on; hey, why not?

\begin{code}
zipEqual	:: String -> [a] -> [b] -> [(a,b)]
zipWithEqual	:: String -> (a->b->c) -> [a]->[b]->[c]
zipWith3Equal	:: String -> (a->b->c->d) -> [a]->[b]->[c]->[d]
zipWith4Equal	:: String -> (a->b->c->d->e) -> [a]->[b]->[c]->[d]->[e]

#ifndef DEBUG
zipEqual      _ = zip
zipWithEqual  _ = zipWith
zipWith3Equal _ = zipWith3
zipWith4Equal _ = zipWith4
#else
zipEqual msg []     []     = []
zipEqual msg (a:as) (b:bs) = (a,b) : zipEqual msg as bs
zipEqual msg as     bs     = panic ("zipEqual: unequal lists:"++msg)

zipWithEqual msg z (a:as) (b:bs)=  z a b : zipWithEqual msg z as bs
zipWithEqual msg _ [] []	=  []
zipWithEqual msg _ _ _		=  panic ("zipWithEqual: unequal lists:"++msg)

zipWith3Equal msg z (a:as) (b:bs) (c:cs)

zipWith3Equal msg _ [] []  []	=  []
zipWith3Equal msg _ _  _   _	=  panic ("zipWith3Equal: unequal lists:"++msg)

zipWith4Equal msg _ [] [] [] []	=  []
zipWith4Equal msg _ _  _  _  _	=  panic ("zipWith4Equal: unequal lists:"++msg)

Subject: natural merge sort beats quick sort [ and it is prettier ]

Here is a piece of Haskell code that I'm rather fond of. See it as an
attempt to get rid of the ridiculous quick-sort routine. group is
quite useful by itself I think it was John's idea originally though I
believe the lazy version is due to me [surprisingly complicated].
gamma [used to be called] is called gamma because I got inspired by
the Gamma calculus. It is not very close to the calculus but does
behave less sequentially than both foldr and foldl. One could imagine
a version of gamma that took a unit element as well thereby avoiding
the problem with empty lists.

I've tried this code against

   1) insertion sort - as provided by haskell
   2) the normal implementation of quick sort
   3) a deforested version of quick sort due to Jan Sparud
   4) a super-optimized-quick-sort of Lennart's

If the list is partially sorted both merge sort and in particular
natural merge sort wins. If the list is random [ average length of
rising subsequences = approx 2 ] mergesort still wins and natural
merge sort is marginally beaten by Lennart's soqs. The space
consumption of merge sort is a bit worse than Lennart's quick sort
approx a factor of 2. And a lot worse if Sparud's bug-fix [see his
fpca article ] isn't used because of group.

\begin{code}
group :: (a -> a -> Bool) -> [a] -> [[a]]
-- Given a <= function, group finds maximal contiguous up-runs 
-- or down-runs in the input list.
-- It's stable, in the sense that it never re-orders equal elements
--
-- Date: Mon, 12 Feb 1996 15:09:41 +0000
-- From: Andy Gill <andy@dcs.gla.ac.uk>
-- Here is a `better' definition of group.

group p []     = []
group p (x:xs) = group' xs x x (x :)
  where
    group' []     _     _     s  = [s []]
    group' (x:xs) x_min x_max s 
	|      x_max `p` x  = group' xs x_min x (s . (x :)) 
	| not (x_min `p` x) = group' xs x x_max ((x :) . s) 
	| otherwise         = s [] : group' xs x x (x :) 
	-- NB: the 'not' is essential for stablity
	--	x `p` x_min would reverse equal elements

generalMerge :: (a -> a -> Bool) -> [a] -> [a] -> [a]
generalMerge p xs [] = xs
generalMerge p [] ys = ys
generalMerge p (x:xs) (y:ys) | x `p` y   = x : generalMerge p xs (y:ys)
			     | otherwise = y : generalMerge p (x:xs) ys

\subsection[Utils-transitive-closure]{Transitive closure}
%*									*
%************************************************************************

This algorithm for transitive closure is straightforward, albeit quadratic.

\begin{code}
transitiveClosure :: (a -> [a])		-- Successor function
		  -> (a -> a -> Bool)	-- Equality predicate
		  -> [a]
		  -> [a]		-- The transitive closure

transitiveClosure succ eq xs
 = go [] xs
 where
   go done [] 			   = done
   go done (x:xs) | x `is_in` done = go done xs
   		  | otherwise      = go (x:done) (succ x ++ xs)

   x `is_in` []                 = False
   x `is_in` (y:ys) | eq x y    = True
  		    | otherwise = x `is_in` ys
\end{code}

%************************************************************************
%*									*
\subsection[Utils-accum]{Accumulating}
%*									*
%************************************************************************

@mapAccumL@ behaves like a combination
of  @map@ and @foldl@;
it applies a function to each element of a list, passing an accumulating
parameter from left to right, and returning a final value of this
accumulator together with the new list.

\begin{code}
mapAccumL :: (acc -> x -> (acc, y)) 	-- Function of elt of input list
					-- and accumulator, returning new
					-- accumulator and elt of result list
	    -> acc 		-- Initial accumulator
	    -> [x] 		-- Input list
	    -> (acc, [y])		-- Final accumulator and result list

mapAccumL f b []     = (b, [])
mapAccumL f b (x:xs) = (b'', x':xs') where
					  (b', x') = f b x
					  (b'', xs') = mapAccumL f b' xs
\end{code}

@mapAccumR@ does the same, but working from right to left instead.  Its type is
the same as @mapAccumL@, though.

\begin{code}
mapAccumR :: (acc -> x -> (acc, y)) 	-- Function of elt of input list
					-- and accumulator, returning new
					-- accumulator and elt of result list
	    -> acc 		-- Initial accumulator
	    -> [x] 		-- Input list
	    -> (acc, [y])		-- Final accumulator and result list

mapAccumR f b []     = (b, [])
mapAccumR f b (x:xs) = (b'', x':xs') where
					  (b'', x') = f b' x
					  (b', xs') = mapAccumR f b xs
\end{code}

Here is the bi-directional version, that works from both left and right.

\begin{code}
mapAccumB :: (accl -> accr -> x -> (accl, accr,y))
      				-- Function of elt of input list
      				-- and accumulator, returning new
      				-- accumulator and elt of result list
	  -> accl 			-- Initial accumulator from left
	  -> accr 			-- Initial accumulator from right
	  -> [x] 			-- Input list
	  -> (accl, accr, [y])	-- Final accumulators and result list

mapAccumB f a b []     = (a,b,[])
mapAccumB f a b (x:xs) = (a'',b'',y:ys)
   where
	(a',b'',y)  = f a b' x
	(a'',b',ys) = mapAccumB f a' b xs
\end{code}

A strict version of foldl.

\begin{code}
foldl'        :: (a -> b -> a) -> a -> [b] -> a
foldl' f z xs = lgo z xs
	     where
		lgo z []     =  z
		lgo z (x:xs) = (lgo $! (f z x)) xs
\end{code}

A combination of foldl with zip.  It works with equal length lists.

\begin{code}
foldl2 :: (acc -> a -> b -> acc) -> acc -> [a] -> [b] -> acc
foldl2 k z [] [] = z
foldl2 k z (a:as) (b:bs) = foldl2 k (k z a b) as bs

all2 :: (a -> b -> Bool) -> [a] -> [b] -> Bool
-- True if the lists are the same length, and 
-- all corresponding elements satisfy the predicate
all2 p []     []     = True
all2 p (x:xs) (y:ys) = p x y && all2 p xs ys
all2 p xs     ys     = False
\end{code}

Count the number of times a predicate is true

\begin{code}
count :: (a -> Bool) -> [a] -> Int
count p [] = 0
count p (x:xs) | p x       = 1 + count p xs
	       | otherwise = count p xs
\end{code}

@splitAt@, @take@, and @drop@ but with length of another
list giving the break-off point:

\begin{code}
takeList :: [b] -> [a] -> [a]
takeList [] _ = []
takeList (_:xs) ls = 
   case ls of
     [] -> []
     (y:ys) -> y : takeList xs ys

dropList :: [b] -> [a] -> [a]
dropList [] xs    = xs
dropList _  xs@[] = xs
dropList (_:xs) (_:ys) = dropList xs ys


splitAtList :: [b] -> [a] -> ([a], [a])
splitAtList [] xs     = ([], xs)
splitAtList _ xs@[]   = (xs, xs)
splitAtList (_:xs) (y:ys) = (y:ys', ys'')
    where
      (ys', ys'') = splitAtList xs ys

split :: Char -> String -> [String]
split c s = case rest of
		[]     -> [chunk] 
		_:rest -> chunk : split c rest
  where (chunk, rest) = break (==c) s
