Hi all,

I often find myself needing the following definitions:

  mapPair :: (a -> b) -> (c -> d) -> (a,c) -> (b,d)
  mapPair f g (x,y) = (f x, g y)

  mapFst :: (a -> b) -> (a,c) -> (b,c)
  mapFst f = mapPair f id

  mapSnd :: (b -> c) -> (a,b) -> (a,c)
  mapSnd = mapPair id

But they seem missing from the prelude and Hoogle or Hayoo only turn
up versions of them in packages like scion or fgl.  Has anyone else
felt the need for these functions?  Am I missing some generalisation
of them perhaps?

Regards,
Dominique
