elpinal / modules

Implementations of F-ing modules and 1ML, as well as bibliography of (mainly ML-style) modules

Modules

Type-theoretic analysis of ML-style modules.

This repository contains

• An implementation (RRD2014.hs) of F-ing modules (Rossberg et al. 2014),
• An interpreter (Ros2018.hs) of 1ML_ex(Rossberg 2018), and
• A bibliography of modules and data abstraction, which is given below.

See also

• elpinal/modules-rs contains another implementation of F-ing modules in Rust (with more bugs fixed than Haskell implementation here).

1ML interpreter

stack install installs 1mlex, which is an interpreter of 1ML without type inference.

Status: All parts of [Rossberg 2018], except type inference, are implemented. There are few known bugs.

• elpinal/1ml-vim is a Vim plugin providing syntax highlighting for 1ML.
