If you decide to continue working with infinite sets, then my advice would be to change your representation. For infinite sets, do not use an implicit representation (ie like a potentially infinite list) but switch to an explicit symbolic-generator representation. In other words, you need to

[Haskell] Design guidance sought for Ranged Sets

2005-12-21 Thread Paul Johnson
When I started the Ranged Sets library "infinite" sets (i.e. sets based on infinite lists of ranges) looked easy. The set primitives of union and intersection are simple merge algorithms, so they would work fine on infinite lists of ranges. Set difference is implemented as a combination of in
