Free Category

Maintainer: coot CircleCI

This package contains efficient implementations of free categories. There are various representations available:

  • real-time queues (C. Okasaki 'Pure Functional Data Structures')
  • type aligned lists
  • continuation passing style (Church encoding)

Free arrows and free Kleisli categories are also included.

Free categories are useful to model state machines in a simple yet type safe manner. For that purpose Kleisli categories are a very useful target which allows to include monadic computations. This package contains a useful generalisation of Kliesli categories captured by EffectCategory class (categories with effects), and a (free) transformer which lifts a category to a category with effects.

Benchmarks
