#NaturalTransformation Source
type NaturalTransformation f g = forall a. f a -> g a
A type for natural transformations.
A natural transformation is a mapping between type constructors of kind
* -> *
where the mapping operation has no ability to manipulate the
inner values.
An example of this is the fromFoldable
function provided in
purescript-lists
, where some foldable structure containing values of
type a
is converted into a List a
.
The definition of a natural transformation in category theory states that
f
and g
should be functors, but the Functor
constraint is not
enforced here; that the types are of kind * -> *
is enough for our
purposes.
