Gofer is an interactive functional programming environment (i.e. an
|

|
|
|
interpreter) supporting a language based on the draft report for Haskell
|
2001-02-08 07:47:23 -05:00
|
|
|
version 1.2.

Gofer is intended as an experimental language, particularly where type classes
|

|
|
|
are involved. Gofer extends the Haskell type class system in several ways.

The most significant features of Haskell not currently supported are:
|
|
|
|
|
modules, arrays, overloaded numeric constants, default declarations, derived
|
|
|
|
|
instances, contexts in datatype definitions.
