*hugs98-12.2000 (24 Apr 2002)
24 Apr 2002; Karl Trygve Kalleberg <karltk@gentoo.org> hugs98-12.2000.ebuild files/digest-hugs98-12.2002 :
Hugs 98 is a functional programming system based on Haskell 98, the de facto
standard for non-strict functional programming languages. Hugs 98 provides
an almost complete implementation of Haskell 98, including:
* Lazy evaluation, higher order functions, and pattern matching.
* A wide range of built-in types, from characters to bignums, and lists to
functions, with comprehensive facilities for defining new datatypes and
type synonyms.
* An advanced polymorphic type system with type and constructor class
overloading.
* All of the features of the Haskell 98 expression and pattern syntax
including lambda, case, conditional and let expressions, list
comprehensions, do-notation, operator sections, and wildcard,
irrefutable and `as' patterns.
* An implementation of the main Haskell 98 primitives for monadic I/O,
with support for simple interactive programs, access to text files,
handle-based I/O, and exception handling.
* An almost complete implementation of the Haskell module system. Hugs 98
also supports a number of advanced and experimental extensions including
multi-parameter classes, extensible records, rank-2 polymorphism,
existentials, scoped type variables, and restricted type synonyms.
