Basement.Compat.Bifunctor
Description
A bifunctor is a type constructor that takes
two type arguments and is a functor in both arguments. That
is, unlike with Functor, a type constructor such as Either
does not need to be partially applied for a Bifunctor
instance, and the methods in this class permit mapping
functions over the Left value or the Right value,
or both at the same time.
Formally, the class Bifunctor represents a bifunctor
from Hask -> Hask.
Intuitively it is a bifunctor where both the first and second arguments are covariant.
You can define a Bifunctor by either defining bimap or by
defining both first and second.

A bifunctor is a type constructor that takes
two type arguments and is a functor in both arguments. That
is, unlike with Functor, a type constructor such as Either
does not need to be partially applied for a Bifunctor
instance, and the methods in this class permit mapping

Formally, the class Bifunctor represents a bifunctor
from Hask -> Hask.
Intuitively it is a bifunctor where both the first and second arguments are covariant.
You can define a Bifunctor by either defining bimap or by
defining both first and second.
If you supply bimap, you should ensure that:
bimapidid≡id
If you supply first and second, ensure:
firstid≡idsecondid≡id
If you supply both, you should also ensure:
bimapf g ≡firstf.secondg
These ensure by parametricity:
bimap(f.g) (h.i) ≡bimapf h.bimapg ifirst(f.g) ≡firstf.firstgsecond(f.g) ≡secondf.secondg
Since: base-4.8.0.0
Methods
bimap :: (a -> b) -> (c -> d) -> p a c -> p b d #
Map over both arguments at the same time.
bimapf g ≡firstf.secondg
Examples
>>>bimap toUpper (+1) ('j', 3)('J',4)
>>>bimap toUpper (+1) (Left 'j')Left 'J'
>>>bimap toUpper (+1) (Right 3)Right 4
