Hi Haskellers, dear igraph community,

I am pleased to announce the release of our (inofficial) Haskell 
bindings to the igraph C library. igraph is a powerfull library for 
creating and manipulating directed, undirected and weighted graphs. Our 
package offers a complete coverage of all functions on structural 
properties of graphs.

Compared to the official packages for R and Python it is the first 
library that offers type level distinction between directed/undirected 
and weighted graphs. Haskells type system allows to keep track of the 
types of your nodes and whether or not your graph and its edges are 
directed or undirected, weighted or unweighted.

Haskell graphs may contain any Haskell value as node values, kind of 
similar to Pythons attributes.

igraph on hackage, the official package database for Haskell: 
http://hackage.haskell.org/package/igraph (requires the current 
igraph-0.6 C library)

The official igraph website: http://igraph.sourceforge.net/index.html

Until hackage generates the haddock documentation, the documentation is 
also available at: http://hs.nils.cc/igraph-0.1/html/index.html


Any feedback is appreciated,
