Prettier functions for wrapping and wrapping
The post Semantic editor combinators gave an example of a pattern that comes up a lot for me in Haskell programming.
I want to apply functions inside of a newtype without cumbersome unwrapping and wrapping of the representation insides.
While chatting with Daniel Peebles in #haskell today, the realization hit me that these “higher-order wrappers” can not only make other code pretty, but can themselves be expressed more beautifully and clearly, using two of the combinators given in that post.
