How about strict vs. lazy? I ask because I assumed there were lazy
variants of uvector or storablevector, using the bytestring list of
chunks approach, but apparently not?
wait.... "list of chunks" makes something that behaves not like a
random-access array, and yet is still rather strict in the elements.
How about strict vs. lazy as in UArray vs. Array: whether the elements
are evaluated lazily (although UArray has the complication that the
elements must also be Storable: e.g. what if you want a strict
random-access array of functions -- so there is not such an easy
solution for a strict but boxed array).
so do we have at least three different variables here? :-)
