\section[GHC.Base]{Module @GHC.Base@}

The overall structure of the GHC Prelude is a bit tricky.

  a) We want to avoid "orphan modules", i.e. ones with instance
        decls that don't belong either to a tycon or a class
        defined in the same module

  b) We want to avoid giant modules

So the rough structure is as follows, in (linearised) dependency order


GHC.Prim        Has no implementation.  It defines built-in things, and
                by importing it you bring them into scope.
                The source file is GHC.Prim.hi-boot, which is just
                copied to make GHC.Prim.hi

GHC.Base        Classes: Eq, Ord, Functor, Monad
                Types:   list, (), Int, Bool, Ordering, Char, String

Data.Tuple      Types: tuples, plus instances for GHC.Base classes

GHC.Show        Class: Show, plus instances for GHC.Base/GHC.Tup types

GHC.Enum        Class: Enum,  plus instances for GHC.Base/GHC.Tup types

Data.Maybe      Type: Maybe, plus instances for GHC.Base classes

GHC.List        List functions

GHC.Num         Class: Num, plus instances for Int
                Type:  Integer, plus instances for all classes so far (Eq, Ord, Num, Show)

                Integer is needed here because it is mentioned in the signature
                of 'fromInteger' in class Num

GHC.Real        Classes: Real, Integral, Fractional, RealFrac
                         plus instances for Int, Integer
                Types:  Ratio, Rational
                        plus intances for classes so far

                Rational is needed here because it is mentioned in the signature
                of 'toRational' in class Real

GHC.ST  The ST monad, instances and a few helper functions

Ix              Classes: Ix, plus instances for Int, Bool, Char, Integer, Ordering, tuples

GHC.Arr         Types: Array, MutableArray, MutableVar

                Arrays are used by a function in GHC.Float

GHC.Float       Classes: Floating, RealFloat
                Types:   Float, Double, plus instances of all classes so far

                This module contains everything to do with floating point.
                It is a big module (900 lines)
                With a bit of luck, many modules can be compiled without ever reading GHC.Float.hi


Other Prelude modules are much easier with fewer complex dependencies.

{- | The 'Monad' class defines the basic operations over a /monad/,
a concept from a branch of mathematics known as /category theory/.

think of a monad as an /abstract datatype/ of actions.
Haskell's @do@ expressions provide a convenient syntax for writing
monadic expressions.

Minimal complete definition: '>>=' and 'return'.

Instances of 'Monad' should satisfy the following laws:

> return a >>= k  ==  k a
> m >>= return  ==  m
> m >>= (\x -> k x >>= h)  ==  (m >>= k) >>= h

Instances of both 'Monad' and 'Functor' should additionally satisfy the law:

Returns the 'tag' of a constructor application; this function is used
by the deriving code for Eq, Ord and Enum.

The primitive dataToTag# requires an evaluated constructor application
as its argument, so we provide getTag as a wrapper that performs the
evaluation before calling dataToTag#.  We could have dataToTag#
evaluate its argument, but we prefer to do it this way because (a)
dataToTag# can be an inline primop if it doesn't need to do any
evaluation, and (b) we want to expose the evaluation to the
simplifier, because it might be possible to eliminate the evaluation
in the case when the argument is already known to be evaluated.

\begin{code}
{-# INLINE getTag #-}
getTag :: a -> Int#
getTag x = x `seq` dataToTag# x
\end{code}
