readBinaryWith rp1 rp2 n c' matches the name of a binary data constructor and then parses its arguments using rp1 and rp2 respectively.

readData p is a parser for datatypes where each alternative begins with a data constructor. It parses the constructor and passes it to p. Parsers for various constructors can be constructed with readUnaryWith and readBinaryWith, and combined with (<|>) from the Alternative class.

Lift the standard readPrec and readListPrec functions through the type constructor.

readUnaryWith rp n c' matches the name of a unary data constructor and then parses its argument using rp.

readsBinary1 n c n' matches the name of a binary data constructor and then parses its arguments using readsPrec1.

readsBinaryWith rp1 rp2 n c n' matches the name of a binary data constructor and then parses its arguments using rp1 and rp2 respectively.

readsData p d is a parser for datatypes where each alternative begins with a data constructor. It parses the constructor and passes it to p. Parsers for various constructors can be constructed with readsUnary, readsUnary1 and readsBinary1, and combined with mappend from the Monoid class.

showsBinary1 n d x y produces the string representation of a binary data constructor with name n and arguments x and y, in precedence context d.

showsUnary1 n d x produces the string representation of a unary data constructor with name n and argument x, in precedence context d.

showsUnaryWith sp n d x produces the string representation of a unary data constructor with name n and argument x, in precedence context d.

Lifting of the Eq class to unary type constructors.

Any instance should be subject to the following law that canonicity is preserved:

liftEq (==) = (==)

This class therefore represents the generalization of Eq by decomposing its main method into a canonical lifting on a canonical inner method, so that the lifting can be reused for other arguments than the canonical one.

Lifting of the Eq class to binary type constructors.

Lifting of the Ord class to unary type constructors.

Any instance should be subject to the following law that canonicity is preserved:

liftCompare compare = compare

This class therefore represents the generalization of Ord by decomposing its main method into a canonical lifting on a canonical inner method, so that the lifting can be reused for other arguments than the canonical one.

Lifting of the Ord class to binary type constructors.

Lifting of the Read class to unary type constructors.

Any instance should be subject to the following laws that canonicity is preserved:

liftReadsPrec readsPrec readList = readsPrec

liftReadList readsPrec readList = readList

liftReadPrec readPrec readListPrec = readPrec

liftReadListPrec readPrec readListPrec = readListPrec

This class therefore represents the generalization of Read by decomposing it's methods into a canonical lifting on a canonical inner method, so that the lifting can be reused for other arguments than the canonical one.

Both liftReadsPrec and liftReadPrec exist to match the interface provided in the Read type class, but it is recommended to implement Read1 instances using liftReadPrec as opposed to liftReadsPrec, since the former is more efficient than the latter. For example:

instance Read1 T where
  liftReadPrec     = ...
  liftReadListPrec = liftReadListPrecDefault

For more information, refer to the documentation for the Read class.

Lifting of the Read class to binary type constructors.

Both liftReadsPrec2 and liftReadPrec2 exist to match the interface provided in the Read type class, but it is recommended to implement Read2 instances using liftReadPrec2 as opposed to liftReadsPrec2, since the former is more efficient than the latter. For example:

instance Read2 T where
  liftReadPrec2     = ...
  liftReadListPrec2 = liftReadListPrec2Default

For more information, refer to the documentation for the Read class.

Lifting of the Show class to unary type constructors.

Any instance should be subject to the following laws that canonicity is preserved:

liftShowsPrec showsPrec showList = showsPrec

liftShowList showsPrec showList = showList

This class therefore represents the generalization of Show by decomposing it's methods into a canonical lifting on a canonical inner method, so that the lifting can be reused for other arguments than the canonical one.
