sufficient, because imperative and pure functional lazy evaluation of the same algorithm may give very different results. A fair comparison should include the best algorithm suitable for each language and much more different inputs for the programs, including very large ones. Herbert Graeber

I have taken a look on these papers at http://www.cl.cam.ac.uk/~ajk13/ http://ftp.cs.chalmers.se/users/pub/rittri/dimpolyrec.ps.Z But I discovered, that there is one important difference to the C++ example I posted. The type system is extended to allow inference of deimensions. The C++

I have found another useful application of types with value parameters in C++. I have seen an example of using types to check for proper use of physical units. I have found this very useful. But I haven't found a way to express this in haskell. It would be nice to have a type system, that supports
