[Haskell-cafe] ANNOUNCE: sloth-0.0.1

[Jan Christiansen]

Hi,

I have just released a prototype implementation of a tool (http://hackage.haskell.org/package/sloth) for checking whether a function is unnecessarily strict. It is inspired by Olaf Chitils StrictCheck tool (http://www.cs.kent.ac.uk/people/staff/oc/) but does not propose improvements that lead to non-sequential function definitions.

For more details there is a short explanation with some examples at http://www.informatik.uni-kiel.de/fileadmin/arbeitsgruppen/ca_prog_develop/Projekte/Sloth/Examples.pdf.

If you discover a bug or have any questions please use the human bug tracking system at jan_christiansen[at]gmx[dot]de.

Cheers, Jan
