idris: Functional Programming Language with Dependent Types
This is a package candidate release! Here you can preview how this package release will appear once published to the main package index (which can be accomplished via the 'maintain' link below). Please note that once a package has been published to the main package index it cannot be undone! Please consult the package uploading documentation for more information.
Warnings:
- 'ghc-options: -O2' is rarely needed. Check that it is giving a real benefit and not just imposing longer compile times on your users.
- 'ghc-options: -threaded' has no effect for libraries. It should only be used for executables.
- 'ghc-prof-options: -auto-all' is fine during development, but not recommended in a distributed package. If you want to use this, make it conditional based on a flag (with 'manual: True' and 'default: False') and enable that flag during development.

- Exposed modules use unallocated top-level names: Idris IRTS Pkg Util
Idris is a general purpose language with full dependent types. It is compiled, with eager evaluation. Dependent types allow types to be predicated on values, meaning that some aspects of a program's behaviour can be specified precisely in the type. The language is closely related to Epigram and Agda. There is a tutorial at http://www.idris-lang.org/documentation. Features include:
Full dependent types with dependent pattern matching
where clauses, with rule, simple case expressions, pattern matching let and lambda bindings
Type classes, monad comprehensions
do notation, idiom brackets, syntactic conveniences for lists, tuples, dependent pairs
Totality checking
Coinductive types
Indentation significant syntax, extensible syntax
Tactic based theorem proving (influenced by Coq)
Cumulative universes
Simple foreign function interface (to C)
Hugs style interactive environment
