Decomposing datatypes into functors

from Iowa Type Theory Commute · host Aaron Stump

This episode continues the discussion of Swierstra's paper "Datatypes à la Carte", explaining how we can decompose a datatype into the application of a fixed-point type constructor and then a functor. The functor itself can be assembled from other functors for pieces of the datatype. This makes modular datatypes possible.
