Abstract

Edison is a library of functional data structures implemented in Haskell. It supports three main families of abstractions: sequences, collections (e.g., sets and priority queues), and associative collections (e.g., finite maps). This paper summarizes the design of Edison, with particular attention to how that design is influenced by details of Haskell.
