The Ix class is used to map a contiguous subrange of values in
a type onto integers. It is used primarily for array indexing
(see the array package).
The first argument (l,u) of each of these operations is a pair
specifying the lower and upper bounds of a contiguous subrange of values.
An implementation is entitled to assume the following laws about these
operations:
inRange (l,u) i == elem i (range (l,u)) - range (l,u) !! index (l,u) i == i, when inRange (l,u) i
map (index (l,u)) (range (l,u))) == [0..rangeSize (l,u)-1] rangeSize (l,u) == length (range (l,u))
Minimal complete instance: range, index and inRange.
| | Methods | range :: (a, a) -> [a] | The list of values in the subrange defined by a bounding pair.
| | index :: (a, a) -> a -> Int | The position of a subscript in the subrange.
| | inRange :: (a, a) -> a -> Bool | Returns True the given subscript lies in the range defined
the bounding pair.
| | rangeSize :: (a, a) -> Int | The size of the subrange defined by a bounding pair.
