-- The "Text.Read" library is the canonical library to import for
-- 'Read'-class facilities. For GHC only, it offers an extended and much
-- improved 'Read' class, which constitutes a proposed alternative to the
-- Haskell 2010 'Read'. In particular, writing parsers is easier, and
-- the parsers are much more efficient.
