-- Converting strings to values.

-- The "Text.Read" library is the canonical library to import for
-- 'Read'-class facilities.  For GHC only, it offers an extended and much
-- improved 'Read' class, which constitutes a proposed alternative to the
-- Haskell 2010 'Read'.  In particular, writing parsers is easier, and
-- the parsers are much more efficient.

-- | The 'read' function reads input from a string, which must be

-- parse is unsuccessful, and it is therefore discouraged from being used in
-- real applications. Use 'readMaybe' or 'readEither' for safe alternatives.
