GHC.Num

Description

The Num class and the Integer type.

Synopsis

Documentation

class Num a where Source #

Basic numeric class.

The Haskell Report defines no laws for Num. However, (+) and (*) are customarily expected to define a ring and have the following properties:

Associativity of (+)
(x + y) + z = x + (y + z)
Commutativity of (+)
x + y = y + x
fromInteger 0 is the additive identity
x + fromInteger 0 = x
negate gives the additive inverse
x + negate x = fromInteger 0
Associativity of (*)
(x * y) * z = x * (y * z)
fromInteger 1 is the multiplicative identity
x * fromInteger 1 = x and fromInteger 1 * x = x
Distributivity of (*) with respect to (+)
a * (b + c) = (a * b) + (a * c) and (b + c) * a = (b * a) + (c * a)

Note that it isn't customarily expected that a type instance of both Num and Ord implement an ordered ring. Indeed, in base only Integer and Rational do.

Minimal complete definition

(+), (*), abs, signum, fromInteger, (negate | (-))

Methods

(+) :: a -> a -> a infixl 6 Source #

(-) :: a -> a -> a infixl 6 Source #

(*) :: a -> a -> a infixl 7 Source #

negate :: a -> a Source #

Unary negation.

abs :: a -> a Source #

Absolute value.

signum :: a -> a Source #

Sign of a number. The functions abs and signum should satisfy the law:

abs x * signum x == x

For real numbers, the signum is either -1 (negative), 0 (zero) or 1 (positive).

fromInteger :: Integer -> a Source #

Conversion from an Integer. An integer literal represents the application of the function fromInteger to the appropriate value of type Integer, so such literals have type (Num a) => a.

(Applicative f, Num a) => Num (Ap f a) #

Note that even if the underlying Num and Applicative instances are lawful, for most Applicatives, this instance will not be lawful. If you use this instance with the list Applicative, the following customary laws will not hold:

Commutativity:

>>> Ap [10,20] + Ap [1,2]
Ap {getAp = [11,12,21,22]}
>>> Ap [1,2] + Ap [10,20]
Ap {getAp = [11,21,12,22]}

Additive inverse:

>>> Ap [] + negate (Ap [])
Ap {getAp = []}
>>> fromInteger 0 :: Ap [] Int
Ap {getAp = [0]}

Distributivity:

>>> Ap [1,2] * (3 + 4)
Ap {getAp = [7,14]}
>>> (Ap [1,2] * 3) + (Ap [1,2] * 4)
Ap {getAp = [7,11,10,14]}

quotRemInteger :: Integer -> Integer -> (# Integer, Integer #) Source #

subtract :: Num a => a -> a -> a Source #

the same as flip (-).

Because - is treated specially in the Haskell grammar, (- e) is not a section, but an application of prefix negation. However, (subtract exp) is equivalent to the disallowed section.
