Performing a side-effect for each element of a Foldable structure

traverse_ executes an Applicative action for every element in a Foldable structure. It ignores the action's result, keeping only the side-effects. (For a version which doesn't discard results, use Traversable.) -- using the Writer applicative functor (and the Sum monoid) ghci> runWriter $ trave...

Using pointer parameters to return multiple values

A common pattern in C, to easily imitate returning multiple values from a function, is to use pointers. #include <stdio.h> void Get( int* c , double* d ) { *c = 72; *d = 175.0; } int main(void) { int a = 0; double b = 0.0; Get( &a , &b ); pr...

"Hello, world!" in the REPL

The Clojure community puts a large emphasis on interactive development, so quite a lot of interaction with Clojure happens within a REPL (read-eval-print-loop). When you input an expression into it, Clojure reads it, evaluates it, and prints the result of the evaluation, all in a loop. You should b...

It only supports single-inheritance (i.e. class can have only one parent), but you can use composition to build more complex classes using...
