------------------------------------------------------------------------
-- Note that the development version of the library often requires the
-- latest development version of Agda.
-- Note also that no guarantees are currently made about forwards or
-- backwards compatibility, the library is still at an experimental
-- stage.
-- To make use of the library, add the path to the library’s root
-- directory (src) to the Agda search path, either using the
-- --include-path flag or by customising the Emacs mode variable
-- agda2-include-dirs (M-x customize-group RET agda2 RET).
-- To compile the library using the MAlonzo compiler you first need to
-- install some supporting Haskell code, for instance as follows:
--
-- cd ffi
-- cabal install
--
-- Currently the library does not support the Epic or JavaScript
-- compiler backends.
-- Contributions to this library are welcome (but to avoid wasted work
-- it is suggested that you discuss large changes before implementing
-- them). Please send contributions in the form of darcs patches (run
-- darcs send --output <patch file> and attach the patch file to an
-- email), and include a statement saying that you agree to release
-- your library patches under the library's licence. It is appreciated
-- if every patch contains a single, complete change, and if the
-- coding style used in the library is adhered to.
------------------------------------------------------------------------
-- Module hierarchy
------------------------------------------------------------------------
-- The top-level module names of the library are currently allocated
-- as follows:
--
-- • Algebra
-- Abstract algebra (monoids, groups, rings etc.), along with
-- properties needed to specify these structures (associativity,
-- commutativity, etc.), and operations on and proofs about the
-- structures.
-- • Category
-- Category theory-inspired idioms used to structure functional
-- programs (functors and monads, for instance).
-- • Coinduction
-- Support for coinduction.
-- • Data
-- Data types and properties about data types.
-- • Function
-- Combinators and properties related to functions.
-- • Foreign
-- Related to the foreign function interface.
-- • Induction
-- A general framework for induction (includes lexicographic and
-- well-founded induction).
-- • IO
-- Input/output-related functions.
-- • Irrelevance
-- Definitions related to (proscriptive) irrelevance.
-- • Level
-- Universe levels.
-- • Record
-- An encoding of record types with manifest fields and "with".
-- • Reflection
-- Support for reflection.
-- • Relation
-- Properties of and proofs about relations (mostly homogeneous
-- binary relations).
-- • Size
-- Sizes used by the sized types mechanism.
-- • Universe
-- A definition of universes.
------------------------------------------------------------------------
-- A selection of useful library modules
------------------------------------------------------------------------
-- Note that module names in source code are often hyperlinked to the
-- corresponding module. In the Emacs mode you can follow these
-- hyperlinks by typing M-. or clicking with the middle mouse button.
-- • Some data types
import Data.Bool -- Booleans.
import Data.Char -- Characters.
import Data.Empty -- The empty type.
import Data.Fin -- Finite sets.
import Data.List -- Lists.
import Data.Maybe -- The maybe type.
import Data.Nat -- Natural numbers.
import Data.Product -- Products.
import Data.Stream -- Streams.
import Data.String -- Strings.
import Data.Sum -- Disjoint sums.
import Data.Unit -- The unit type.
import Data.Vec -- Fixed-length vectors.
-- • Some types used to structure computations
import Category.Functor -- Functors.
import Category.Applicative -- Applicative functors.
import Category.Monad -- Monads.
-- • Equality
-- Propositional equality:
import Relation.Binary.PropositionalEquality
-- Convenient syntax for "equational reasoning" using a preorder:
import Relation.Binary.PreorderReasoning
-- Solver for commutative ring or semiring equalities:
import Algebra.RingSolver
-- • Properties of functions, sets and relations
-- Monoids, rings and similar algebraic structures:
import Algebra
-- Negation, decidability, and similar operations on sets:
import Relation.Nullary
-- Properties of homogeneous binary relations:
import Relation.Binary
-- • Induction
-- An abstraction of various forms of recursion/induction:
import Induction
-- Well-founded induction:
import Induction.WellFounded
-- Various forms of induction for natural numbers:
import Induction.Nat
-- • Support for coinduction
import Coinduction
-- • IO
import IO
------------------------------------------------------------------------
-- Record hierarchies
------------------------------------------------------------------------
-- When an abstract hierarchy of some sort (for instance semigroup →
-- monoid → group) is included in the library the basic approach is to
-- specify the properties of every concept in terms of a record
-- containing just properties, parameterised on the underlying
-- operations, sets etc.:
--
-- record IsSemigroup {A} (≈ : Rel A) (∙ : Op₂ A) : Set where
-- open FunctionProperties ≈
-- field
-- isEquivalence : IsEquivalence ≈
-- assoc : Associative ∙
-- ∙-cong : ∙ Preserves₂ ≈ ⟶ ≈ ⟶ ≈
--
-- More specific concepts are then specified in terms of the simpler
-- ones:
--
-- record IsMonoid {A} (≈ : Rel A) (∙ : Op₂ A) (ε : A) : Set where
-- open FunctionProperties ≈
-- field
-- isSemigroup : IsSemigroup ≈ ∙
-- identity : Identity ε ∙
--
-- open IsSemigroup isSemigroup public
--
-- Note here that open IsSemigroup isSemigroup public ensures that the
-- fields of the isSemigroup record can be accessed directly; this
-- technique enables the user of an IsMonoid record to use underlying
-- records without having to manually open an entire record hierarchy.
-- This is not always possible, though. Consider the following definition
-- of preorders:
--
-- record IsPreorder {A : Set}
-- (_≈_ : Rel A) -- The underlying equality.
-- (_∼_ : Rel A) -- The relation.
-- : Set where
-- field
-- isEquivalence : IsEquivalence _≈_
-- -- Reflexivity is expressed in terms of an underlying equality:
-- reflexive : _≈_ ⇒ _∼_
-- trans : Transitive _∼_
--
-- module Eq = IsEquivalence isEquivalence
--
-- ...
--
-- The Eq module in IsPreorder is not opened publicly, because it
-- contains some fields which clash with fields or other definitions
-- in IsPreorder.
-- Records packing up properties with the corresponding operations,
-- sets, etc. are sometimes also defined:
--
-- record Semigroup : Set₁ where
-- infixl 7 _∙_
-- infix 4 _≈_
-- field
-- Carrier : Set
-- _≈_ : Rel Carrier
-- _∙_ : Op₂ Carrier
-- isSemigroup : IsSemigroup _≈_ _∙_
--
-- open IsSemigroup isSemigroup public
--
-- setoid : Setoid
-- setoid = record { isEquivalence = isEquivalence }
--
-- record Monoid : Set₁ where
-- infixl 7 _∙_
-- infix 4 _≈_
-- field
-- Carrier : Set
-- _≈_ : Rel Carrier
-- _∙_ : Op₂ Carrier
-- ε : Carrier
-- isMonoid : IsMonoid _≈_ _∙_ ε
--
-- open IsMonoid isMonoid public
--
-- semigroup : Semigroup
-- semigroup = record { isSemigroup = isSemigroup }
--
-- open Semigroup semigroup public using (setoid)
--
-- Note that the Monoid record does not include a Semigroup field.
-- Instead the Monoid /module/ includes a "repackaging function"
-- semigroup which converts a Monoid to a Semigroup.
-- The above setup may seem a bit complicated, but we think it makes the
-- library quite easy to work with, while also providing enough
-- flexibility.

-- More documentation
------------------------------------------------------------------------
-- Some examples showing where the natural numbers/integers and some
-- related operations and properties are defined, and how they can be
-- used:
import README.Nat
import README.Integer
-- Some examples showing how the AVL tree module can be used.
import README.AVL
-- An example showing how the Record module can be used.
import README.Record
-- An example showing how the case expression can be used.
import README.Case
------------------------------------------------------------------------
-- Core modules
------------------------------------------------------------------------
-- Some modules have names ending in ".Core". These modules are
-- internal, and have (mostly) been created to avoid mutual recursion
-- between modules. They should not be imported directly; their
-- contents are reexported by other modules.
------------------------------------------------------------------------
-- All library modules
------------------------------------------------------------------------
-- For short descriptions of every library module, see Everything:
import Everything
-- Note that the Everything module is generated automatically. If you
-- have downloaded the library from its darcs repository and want to
-- type check README then you can (try to) construct Everything by
-- running "cabal install && GenerateEverything".
-- Note that all library sources are located under src or ffi. The
-- modules README, README.* and Everything are not really part of the
-- library, so these modules are located in the top-level directory
-- instead.
