hugs98-2006.09p2 – Haskell 98 interpreter
Description
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 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.
