+5.2 [2023.03.12]
+----------------
+* Drop support for GHC 7.10 and earlier.
+* Drop redundant `Monad` constraints on many functions and instances. These
+  constraints were only present for compatibility with pre-7.10 versions of
+  GHC, which `free` no longer supports.
+* Add `Eq`, `Eq1`, `Ord`, `Ord1`, and `Foldable` instances for `Ap` in
+  `Control.Applicative.Free`.
+* Switch out `bifunctors` dependency for `bifunctor-classes-compat`.
+
+5.1.10 [2022.11.30]
+-------------------
+* Add a `MonadFail` instance for `FT`.
+
+5.1.9 [2022.06.26]
+------------------
+* Simplify the `Eq` and `Ord` instances for `FT` to avoid the use of
+  overlapping instances.
+
+5.1.8 [2022.05.07]
+------------------
+* Generalize the `Monad` constraint in the type signatures for
+  `hoistFreeT` in `Control.Monad.Trans.Free` and `Control.Monad.Trans.Free.Ap`
+  to a `Functor` constraint.
+* Allow building with `transformers-0.6.*` and `mtl-2.3.*`.
+
+5.1.7 [2021.04.30]
+------------------
+* Enable `FlexibleContexts` in `Control.Monad.Trans.Free.Church` to allow
+  building with GHC 9.2.
+
+5.1.6 [2020.12.31]
+------------------
+* Explicitly mark modules as `Safe`.
+
+5.1.5 [2020.12.16]
+------------------
+* Move `indexed-traversable` (`FunctorWithIndex` etc) instances from `lens`.
+
+5.1.4 [2020.10.01]
+------------------
+* Allow building with `template-haskell-2.17.0.0` (GHC 9.0).
+
+5.1.3 [2019.11.26]
+------------------
+* Allow building with `template-haskell-2.16` (GHC 8.10).
+* Add `Eq{1,2}`, `Ord{1,2}`, `Read{1,2}`, and `Show{1,2}` instances for
+  `CofreeF`.
+
+5.1.2 [2019.08.27]
+------------------
+* Implement more performant versions of `some` and `many` in the `Alternative`
+  instance for the final `Alt` encoding.
+
+5.1.1 [2019.05.02]
+------------------
+* Allow building with `base-4.13` (GHC 8.8).
+
+5.1 [2018.07.03]
+----------------
+* Generalize the type of `_Free`.
+* Allow building with `containers-0.6`.
+* Avoid incurring some dependencies when using recent GHCs.
+
+5.0.2 [2018.04.25]
+------------------
+* Add `Generic` and `Generic1` instances where possible.
+
+5.0.1 [2018.03.07]
+------------------
+* Fix the build on old GHCs with `transformers-0.4`.
+
+5 [2018.01.28]
+--------------
+* Add a `Semigroup` instance for `IterT`.
+* Add `MonadFail` instances for `IterT` and `FreeT`.
+* Add a `Comonad` instance for the free `Applicative`, `Ap`.
+* Add `Control.Monad.Free.Ap` and `Control.Monad.Trans.Free.Ap` modules, based
+  on the "Applicative Effects in Free Monads" series of articles by Will
+  Fancher.
+* Derive `Data` instances for `Free` and `Cofree`.
+* `Control.Monad.Free.TH` now properly supports `template-haskell-2.11.0.0`. In
+  particular, it now supports `GadtC` and `RecGadtC`, which are new
+  `template-haskell` forms for representing GADTs.
+* Add `telescoped_`, `shoots`, and `leaves` to `Control.Comonad.Cofree`
+* Add the `Control.Applicative.Free.Fast` module, based on Dave Menendez's
+  article "Free Applicative Functors in Haskell"
+* Add `foldFreeT` to `Control.Monad.Trans.Free`
+* Improve the `foldMap` and `cutoff` functions for
+  `Control.Monad.Free.Church.F`, and add a `Traversable`
+* Add a `MonadBase` instance for `FreeT`
+* Add a performance test comparing Free and Church interpreters
+* The use of `prelude-extras` has been removed. `free` now uses the
+  `Data.Functor.Classes` module to give `free`'s datatypes instances of `Eq1`,
+  `Ord1`, `Read1`, and `Show1`. Their `Eq`, `Ord`, `Read`, and `Show` instances
+  have also been modified to incorporate these classes. For example, what
+  previously existed as:
+
+  ```haskell
+  instance (Eq (f (Free f a)), Eq a) => Eq (Free f a) where
+  ```
+
+  has now been changed to:
+
+  ```haskell
+  instance (Eq1 f, Eq a) => Eq (Free f a) where
+  ```
+* Remove redundant `Functor` constraints from `Control.Alternative.Free`
+
+4.12.4
+------
+* Removed a number of spurious class constraints.
+* Support GHC 8
+
+4.12.3
+------
+* Support `comonad` 5
+
+4.12.2
+------
+* Add instances for `ExceptT`: like `ErrorT`, but without an `Error` constraint.
+* Support `containers`
+* Support `transformers` 0.5
+
+
+4.12.1
+------
+* Support GHC 7.4
+
+4.12
+----
+* Add instances of `MonadCatch` and `MonadThrow` from `exceptions` to `FT`, `FreeT` and `IterT`.
+* `semigroupoids` 5, `profunctors` 5, and `bifunctors` 5 support.
+
+4.11
+-----
+* Pass Monad[FreeT].fail into underlying monad
+* Add `retractT`.
+* Added `cutoff` for the church encoded free monad.
+* `cutoff` now accepts negative numbers.
+* Added `intersperseT` and `intercalateT`.
+* Added `foldFree` and `foldF`.
+* Added some new `template-haskell` toys.
+
+4.10.0.1
+------
+* Fix for very old `cabal` versions where the `MIN_VERSION_foo` macros aren't negation friendly.
+
+4.10
+----
+* Redefine `Alternative` and `MonadPlus` instances of `IterT` so that they apply to any underlying `Monad`.
+  `mplus` or `<|>` is Capretta's `race` combinator; `mzero` or `empty` is a non-terminating computation.
+* Redefine `fail s` for `IterT` as `mzero`, for any string `s`.
+* Added `Control.Monad.Trans.Iter.untilJust`, which repeatedly retries a `m (Maybe a)` computation until
+  it produces `Just` a value.
+* Fix things so that we can build with GHC 7.10, which also uses the name `Alt` in `Data.Monoid`, and which exports `Monoid` from `Prelude`.
+
+4.9
+---
+* Remove `either` support. Why? It dragged in a large number of dependencies we otherwise don't support, and so is probably best inverted.
+
+4.8.0.1
+-------
+* Allow complation with older versions of `base`. (Foldable didn't add foldl' until base 4.6)
+
+4.8
+-----
+* Added a `MonadFree` instance for `EitherT` (frrom the `either` package).
+* Support for `transformers` 0.4
+
+4.7.1
+-----
+* Added more versions of `cutoff`.
+
+4.7
+---
+* Added `prelude-extras` support. This makes it possible to work without `UndecidableInstances` for most operations.
+* Removed the `GHC_TYPEABLE` flag.
+
+4.6.1
+-----
+* Added `hoistF`
+
+4.6
+---
+* Víctor López Juan and Fabian Ruch added many documentation improvements and a whole host of proofs of correctness.
+* Improvements in the template haskell code generator.
+* Added instances for `MonadWriter` and `MonadCont` where appropriate, thanks to Nickolay Kudasov.
+* Added `cutoff`, `iterTM`, and `never`.
+* Made modifications to some `Typeable` and `Data` instances to work correctly on both GHC 7.8.1rc1 and 7.8.1rc2.
+* Removed `Control.MonadPlus.Free`. Use `FreeT f []` instead and the result will be law-abiding.
+* Replaced `Control.Alternative.Free` with a new approach that is law-abiding for left-distributive Alternatives.
+
+4.5
+-----
+* Added `Control.Monad.Free.TH` with `makeFree` to make it easier to write free monads.
+* Added missing instances for `MonadFix` and `MonadCont` where appropriate.
+
+4.2
+-----
+* Added `Control.Monad.Trans.Iter` and `Control.Comonad.Trans.Coiter`.
+
+4.1.1
+-----
+* Added a default signature to `wrap`, based on a construction by @fizruk.
+
+4.0
+---
+* Updated to work with `semigroupoids` and `comonad` 4.0
+* `instance ComonadCofree Maybe NonEmpty`
+* `instance ComonadCofree (Const b) ((,) b)`
+
 3.4.2
 -----
 * Generalized `liftF`.

+MonadZip instance for Cofree
+============================
+
+For every functor `f` with `Alternative` and `MonadZip` instances,
+`Cofree f` is an instance of `MonadZip`.
+
+The claim follows as a corollary from the [`MonadZip` instance theorem
+for `CofreeT`](../Trans/Cofree/instance-MonadZip-CofreeT.md) when `m` is
+set to be `Identity`, which obviously has an instance of `MonadZip`.

+Applicative instance for CofreeT
+================================
+
+If the underlying functor f is an instance of Alternative, then CofreeT is also
+an applicative functor.
+
+Note that the only required properties of Alternative are associativity and
+existence of an identity element, so one could also use functors that are
+instances of Plus (semigroupoid package).
+
+```haskell
+instance (Alternative f, Applicative w) =>
+         Applicative (CofreeT f w) where
+  pure = CofreeT . pure . (:< empty)
+  
+  (CofreeT wf) <*> aa@(CofreeT wa) = CofreeT $
+    ( \(f :< t) -> 
+      \(a)      ->  
+      let (b :< n) = bimap f (fmap f) a in 
+      b :< (n <|> fmap (<*> aa) t)) <$> wf <*> wa
+```
+
+
+## Identity
+
+```haskell
+
+  pure id <*> (C wa)
+
+== {- definition of <*> -}
+
+   C $
+     ( \(f :< t) -> 
+       \(a)      ->  
+       let (b :< n) = bimap f (fmap f) a in 
+       b :< (n <|> fmap (<*> C wa) t)) <$> (pure $ id :< empty) <*> wa
+
+== {- w is Applicative -}
+  
+  C $
+       \(a)      ->  
+       let (b :< n) = bimap id (fmap id) a in 
+       b :< (n <|> fmap (<*> C wa) empty)) <$> wa
+
+== {- functor preserves identity -}
+
+  C $
+       \(a)      ->  
+       let (b :< n) = bimap id id a in 
+       b :< (n <|> fmap (<*> C wa) empty)) <$> wa
+
+== {- bifunctors preserve identity -}
+
+  C $
+       \(a)      ->  
+       let (b :< n) = a in 
+       b :< (n <|> fmap (<*> C wa) empty)) <$> wa
+
+== {- empty is invariant under fmap -}
+ 
+  C $
+       \(a)      ->  
+       let (b :< n) = a in 
+       b :< (n <|> empty) <$> wa
+
+== {- empty is identity, β-reduction -}
+
+  C $ id <$> wa
+
+== {- functor preserves identity -}
+
+  C wa
+
+```
+
+
+## Composition
+
+First, we rewrite the definition of the (<*>) into something simpler:
+
+```haskell
+
+  (C wf) <*> (C wa)
+
+== {- definition of <*> -}
+
+  C $
+      ( \(f :< t) -> 
+        \(a)      ->  
+        let (b :< n) = bimap f (fmap f) a in 
+        b :< (n <|> fmap (<*> C wa) t)) <$> wf <*> wa
+
+== {- pattern match on CofreeF -}
+
+  C $
+      ( \(f :< t) -> 
+        \(a :< m)      ->  
+        let (b :< n) = bimap f (fmap f) (a :< m) in 
+        b :< (n <|> fmap (<*> C wa) t)) <$> wf <*> wa
+
+== {- definition of bimap -}
+
+  C $
+      ( \(f :< t) -> 
+        \(a :< m)      ->  
+        let (b :< n) = f a :< fmap (fmap f) m in 
+        b :< (n <|> fmap (<*> C wa) t)) <$> wf <*> wa
+
+== {- β-equivalence -}
+
+  C $
+      ( \(f :< t) -> 
+        \(a :< m) ->  
+        (f a) :< (fmap (fmap f) m <|> fmap (<*> C wa) t)) <$> wf <*> wa
+
+== {- define star(C wa) ≡ ( \(f :< t) -> … (<*> C wa) … ) -}
+
+  C $ star(C wa) <$> wf <*> wa
+
+== {- fmap for w Applicative -}
+
+  C (pure star(C wa) <*> wf <*> wa)
+
+```
+
+Now, we can prove the law of composition:
+
+```haskell
+
+   pure (.) <*> C u <*> C v <*> C w
+
+== {- definition of <*> -}
+
+   C (pure star(C u) <*> pure ((.) :< empty) <*> u ) <*> C v <*> C w  
+
+== {- definition of <*> -}
+
+   C (pure star(C v) <*> 
+       (pure star(C u) <*> pure ((.) :< empty) <*> u ) <*> 
+       v
+     ) <*> 
+     C w
+
+== {- definition of <*> -}
+
+   C (pure star(C w) <*>
+       (pure star(C v) <*>
+         (pure star(C u) <*> pure ((.) :< empty) <*> u ) <*>
+        v) <*>
+      w)

+== {- see lemma 1 -}
+

+                          fmap (\x -> pure (.) <*> x    <*> C v <*> C w) m))) ==
+
+
+
+
+== {- coinduction on recursive definition (“produce 1, consume 1”) -}
+
+    
+     C $ (\a :< m -> b :< n -> c :< p ->
+          (a (b c) :< (fmap (fmap (a . b)) p) <|>
+                      (fmap (\x -> pure a <*> (x <*> C w)) n) <|>
+                      (fmap (\x -> x<*> (C v <*> C w))    m) )  
+
+
+== {- see lemma 2 -}
+
+  C (pure star(C v <*> C w) <*>
+     u <*>
+     (pure star(C w) <*>
+        v <*>
+        w))
+   
+== {- definition of <*> -}
+
+  C (pure star(C v <*> C w) <*> u <*> unC (C v <*> C w))
+
+== {- definition of <*> -}
+
+   C u <*> (C v <*> C w)
+```
+
+### Lemma 1
+
+To make reasoning easier, we'll use a shortand notation.
+
+```
+U               ≡ star(C v)
+V               ≡ star(C u)
+W               ≡ star(C w)
+!               ≡ (.) :< empty
+p               ≡ pure
+<concatenation> ≡ function application 
+.               ≡ (.)
+```
+
+By repeatedly applying the Applicative laws for the underlying functor, we
+get:
+
+```haskell
+   
+pW <*> (pV <*> (pU <*> p! <*> u) <*> v ) <*> w ==
+
+pW <*> (pV <*> (p(U!) <*> u) <*> v ) <*> w ==
+
+pW <*> (p. <*> pV <*> p(U!) <*> u <*> v ) <*> w ==
+
+pW <*> ( p(.V)(U!) <*> u <*> v ) <*> w ==
+
+p. <*> pW <*> ( p(.V)(U!) <*> u ) <*> v <*> w ==
+
+p(.W) <*> (p(.V)(U!) <*> u) <*> v <*> w ==
+
+p. <*> p(.W) <*> p(.V)(U!) <*> u <*> v <*> w ==
+
+p.(.W)((.V)(U!)) <*> u <*> v <*> w 
+
+```
+
+Undoing the shorthand notation and simplifying:
+
+```haskell
+
+!  == (.) :< empty
+U! == \(a :< m) -> (. a) :< fmap (fmap (.)) m
+V  == \(f :< t) -> \(b :< n) -> (f b) :< (fmap (fmap f) n <|>

+### Lemma 2
+
+We use the following shorthands to make reasoning more readable.
+
+```
+W               ≡ star(C w)
+Y               ≡ star(C v <*> C w)
+p               ≡ pure
+<concatenation> ≡ function application 
+.               ≡ (.)
+$W              ≡ ($ star(C w))
+```
+
+By repeatedly applying composition law for w, we get:
+
+```haskell
+  
+pY <*> u <*> (pW <*> v <*> w) ==
+
+p. <*> (pY <*> u) <*> (pW <*> v) <*> w ==

+p. <*> p. <*> pY <*> u <*> (pW <*> v) <*> w ==

+p. <*> (p..Y <*> u) <*> pW <*> v <*> w ==

+
+p.($W)(..(..Y)) <*> u <*> v <*> w
+
+
+(.)  == \f -> \g -> \x -> f (g x)
+
+($W) == \g -> g W
+
+($W) . (..(..Y)) == \s -> (\g -> g W) ((..(..Y)) s)
+                 == \s -> (..(..Y)) s W
+
+(. . (..Y)) == (\s -> . ((..Y) s))
+
+∴ ($W) . (..(..Y)) == \s -> ((..Y) s) . W
+
+(..Y) == (\y -> (.) (Y y))
+
+∴ ($W) . (..(..Y)) ==  \s -> ((.) (Y s)) . W
+
+                   ==  \s -> \t -> ((.) (Y s)) (W t)
+                   
+                   ==  \s -> \t -> (Y s) . (W t)
+
+                   ==  \s -> \t -> u -> (Y s (W t u))
+```
+
+Undoing shorthands and α-converting, we get:

+Monad instance for CofreeT
+==========================
+
+If the underlying functor f is an instance of Alternative, then CofreeT is also
+a Monad.
+
+Note that the only required properties of Alternative are associativity and
+identity element, so one could also use functors that are instances of Plus
+(semigroupoid package).
+
+```haskell
+instance (Alternative f, Monad w) => Monad (CofreeT f w) where
+  return = CofreeT . return . (:< empty)
+  (CofreeT cx) >>= f = CofreeT $ do
+    (a :< m) <- cx
+    (b :< n) <- runCofreeT $ f a
+    return $ b :< (n <|> fmap (>>= f) m)
+```
+
+This definition is equivalent to that of the Cofree module if 'w' is
+identity. 
+
+The tokens `CofreeT` and `runCofreeT` are abbreviated as `C` and `unC`, 
+respectively, for readability.

+MonadZip instance for CofreeT
+=============================
+
+For every monad `m` with a `MonadZip` instance and functor `f` with
+`Alternative` and `MonadZip` instances, `CofreeT f m` is an instance of
+`MonadZip`.
+
+```haskell
+instance (Alternative f, MonadZip f, MonadZip m) => MonadZip (CofreeT f m) where
+  mzip (CofreeT ma) (CofreeT mb) = CofreeT $ do
+    (a :< fa, b :< fb) <- mzip ma mb
+    return $ (a, b) :< (uncurry mzip <$> mzip fa fb)
+```
+
+This definition is equivalent to that of the `Cofree` module if `m` is
+chosen to be the `Identity` monad.
+
+The claim follows directly from the two lemmata below, which establish
+the `MonadZip` laws for naturality and information preservation
+respectively, and the [`Monad` instance theorem for
+`CofreeT`](instance-Monad-CofreeT.md).
+
+In the following, the tokens `CofreeT` and `runCofreeT` are abbreviated
+as `C` and `unC` respectively.

+
+Consider the following problem:
+
+A farmer must cross a river with a wolf, a sheep and a cabbage.
+He owns a boat, which can only carry himself and one other item.
+The sheep must not be left alone with the wolf, or with the cabbage:
+if that happened, one of them would eat the other.
+
+> data Item = Wolf | Sheep | Cabbage | Farmer deriving (Ord, Show, Eq)
+>
+> eats :: Item -> Item -> Bool
+> Sheep `eats` Cabbage = True
+> Wolf `eats` Sheep    = True
+> _ `eats` _           = False
+
+The problem can be represented as the set of items on each side of the river.
+
+> type Situation = ([Item],[Item])
+
+> initial :: Situation
+> initial = ([Farmer, Wolf, Sheep, Cabbage], [])
+
+First, some helper functions to extract single elements from lists, leaving the
+rest intact:
+
+> plusTailOf :: [a] -> [a] -> (Maybe a, [a])
+> a `plusTailOf` b = (listToMaybe b,  a ++ drop 1 b)
+
+> singleOut1 :: (a -> Bool) -> [a] -> (Maybe a,[a])
+> singleOut1 sel = uncurry plusTailOf . break sel

+
+@
+*Cabbage> singleOutAll [Wolf, Sheep, Cabbage]
+[(Just Wolf,[Sheep,Cabbage]),(Just Sheep,[Wolf,Cabbage]),(Just Cabbage,[Wolf,Sheep]),(Nothing,[Wolf,Sheep,Cabbage])]
+@
+
+In every move, the farmer goes from one side of the river to the other,
+together with (optionally) one item.
+
+The remaining items must not eat each other for the move to be valid.
+
+> move :: Situation -> [Situation]
+> move = move2
+>   where
+>   move2 (singleOut1 (== Farmer) -> (Just Farmer,as), bs)  = move1 as bs

+@
+
+When the starting side becomes empty, the farmer succeeds.
+
+> success :: Situation -> Bool
+> success ([],_) = True
+> success _      = False
+
+A straightforward implementation to solve the problem could use the
+list monad, trying all possible solutions and
+
+> solution1 :: Situation
+> solution1 = head $ solutions' initial
+>             where
+>             solutions' a = if success a

+>                            else move a >>= solutions'
+
+However, when it's run, it will get stuck in an infinite loop, as the sheep
+is shuffled back and forth. The solution is being searched in depth.
+
+To guarantee termination, we can use the 'Iter' monad with its MonadPlus instance.
+As long as one of the possible execution paths finds a solution, the program
+will terminate: the solution is looked for _in breadth_.
+
+> solution2 :: Iter Situation
+> solution2 = solution' initial
+>             where
+>               solution' a =
+>                 if success a
+>                   then return a
+>                   else delay $ msum $ map solution' (move a)
+
+Each of the alternative sequences of movements will be evaluated
+concurrently; and the shortest one will be the result. In case of ties,
+the leftmost solution takes priority.
+
+@
+ *Cabbage> solution2
+ IterT (Identity (Right ( …
+   (IterT (Identity (Right
+     (IterT (Identity (Left
+       ([],[Farmer,Sheep,Cabbage,Wolf]))))))))))))))))))))))))
+@
+
+For a cleaner display, use 'retract' to escape 'Iter' monad:
+
+@
+ *Cabbage> retract solution2
+ Identity ([],[Farmer,Sheep,Cabbage,Wolf])
+@
+
+'unsafeIter' will also get rid of the 'Identity' wrapper:
+
+> unsafeIter :: Iter a -> a
+> unsafeIter = runIdentity . retract
+
+@
+ *Cabbage> unsafeIter solution2
+ ([],[Farmer,Sheep,Cabbage,Wolf])
+@
+
+Suppose that we not only want the solution, but also the steps that we
+took to arrive there. Enter the Writer monad transformer:
+
+> solution3 :: Iter (Situation, [Situation])
+> solution3 = runWriterT $ solution' initial
+>             where
+>               solution' :: Situation -> WriterT [Situation] Iter Situation
+>               solution' a = do
+>                 tell [a]
+>                 if success a
+>                   then return a
+>                   else mapWriterT delay $ msum $ map solution' (move a)
+
+The second component contains the complete path to the solution:
+
+@
+ *Cabbage> snd $ unsafeIter solution3
+ [([Farmer,Wolf,Sheep,Cabbage],[]),
+  ([Wolf,Cabbage],[Farmer,Sheep]),
+  ([Farmer,Wolf,Cabbage],[Sheep]),
+  ([Cabbage],[Farmer,Wolf,Sheep]),
+  ([Farmer,Sheep,Cabbage],[Wolf]),
+  ([Sheep],[Farmer,Cabbage,Wolf]),
+  ([Farmer,Sheep],[Cabbage,Wolf]),
+  ([],[Farmer,Sheep,Cabbage,Wolf])]
+@
+
+When the transformer is applied _over_ the Iter monad, it acts locally for each solution.
+If we apply the IterT transformer over another monad,
+the behaviour for that monad will be shared among all threads.
+
+For example, let's keep track of how many moves we perform. We could
+do so with the writer monad again (numbers form a monoid under addition), but
+we'll use the state monad this time.
+
+> solution4 :: Iter (Situation, Integer)
+> solution4 = flip runStateT 0 $ solution' initial
+>             where
+>               solution' :: Situation -> StateT Integer Iter Situation
+>               solution' a =
+>                 if success a
+>                   then return a
+>                   else do

+>                          mapStateT delay $ msum $ map solution' (move a)
+
+This gives us seven moves (one for each transition between two states).
+
+@
+ *Cabbage> unsafeIter solution4
+ (([],[Farmer,Sheep,Cabbage,Wolf]),7)
+@
+
+On the other hand, if move the state inside Iter, we get a global count of
+explored nodes until the solution was found.

+
+Some fractals can be defined by infinite sequences of complex numbers. For example,
+to render the <https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mandelbrot_set Mandelbrot set>,
+the following sequence is generated for each point @c@ in the complex plane:
+
+@
+z₀ = c
+
+z₁ = z₀² + c
+
+z₂ = z₁² + c
+
+…
+@
+
+If, after some iterations, |z_i| ≥ 2, the point is not in the set. We
+can compute if a point is not in the Mandelbrot set this way:
+
+@
+ escaped :: Complex Double -> Int
+ escaped c = loop 0 0 where
+   loop z n = if (magnitude z) >= 2 then n
+                                    else loop (z*z + c) (n+1)
+@
+
+If @c@ is not in the Mandelbrot set, we get the number of iterations required to
+prove that fact. But, if @c@ is in the mandelbrot set, 'escaped' will
+run forever.
+
+We can use the 'Iter' monad to delimit this effect. By applying
+'delay' before the recursive call, we decompose the computation into
+terminating steps.
+
+> escaped :: Complex Double -> Iter Int
+> escaped c = loop 0 0 where
+>   loop z n = if (magnitude z) >= 2 then return n
+>                                    else delay $ loop (z*z + c) (n+1)
+>
+
+If we draw each point on a canvas after it escapes, we can get a _negative_
+image of the Mandelbrot set. Drawing pixels is a side-effect, so it
+should happen inside the IO monad. Also, we want to have an
+environment to store the size of the canvas, and the target window.
+
+By using 'IterT', we can add all these behaviours to our non-terminating
+computation.
+
+> data Canvas = Canvas { width :: Int, height :: Int, window :: Window }
+>
+> type FractalM a = IterT (ReaderT Canvas IO) a
+
+Any simple, non-terminating computation can be lifted into a richer environment.
+
+> escaped' :: Complex Double -> IterT (ReaderT Canvas IO) Int
+> escaped' = liftIter . escaped
+
+Then, to draw a point, we can just retrieve the number of iterations until it
+finishes, and draw it. The color will depend on the number of iterations.
+
+> mandelbrotPoint :: (Int, Int) -> FractalM ()
+> mandelbrotPoint p = do
+>   c <- scale p
+>   n <- escaped' c
+>   let color =  if (even n) then RGB   0   0 255 -- Blue
+>                            else RGB   0   0 127 -- Darker blue
+>   drawPoint color p
+
+The pixels on the screen don't match the region in the complex plane where the
+fractal is; we need to map them first. The region we are interested in is
+Im z = [-1,1], Re z = [-2,1].
+
+> scale :: (Int, Int) -> FractalM (Complex Double)
+> scale (xi,yi) = do
+>   (w,h) <- asks $ (fromIntegral . width) &&& (fromIntegral . height)
+>   let (x,y) = (fromIntegral xi, fromIntegral yi)
+>   let im = (-y + h / 2     ) / (h/2)
+>   let re = ( x - w * 2 / 3 ) / (h/2)
+>   return $ re :+ im
+
+Drawing a point is equivalent to drawing a line of length one.
+
+> drawPoint :: RGB -> (Int,Int) -> FractalM ()
+> drawPoint color (x,y) = do
+>   w <- asks window
+>   let point = line (x,y) (x+1, y+1)
+>   liftIO $ drawInWindow w $ mkPen Solid 1 color (flip withPen point)
+
+We may want to draw more than one point. However, if we just sequence the computations
+monadically, the first point that is not a member of the set will block the whole
+process. We need advance all the points at the same pace, by interleaving the
+computations.
+
+> drawMandelbrot :: FractalM ()
+> drawMandelbrot = do
+>   (w,h) <- asks $ width &&& height
+>   let ps = [mandelbrotPoint (x,y) | x <- [0 .. (w-1)], y <- [0 .. (h-1)]]
+>   interleave_ ps
+
+To run this computation, we can just use @retract@, which will run indefinitely:
+
+> runFractalM :: Canvas -> FractalM a -> IO a
+> runFractalM canvas  = flip runReaderT canvas . retract
+
+Or, we can trade non-termination for getting an incomplete result,

+To estimate the error, we look forward one position in the stream. The next value
+will be much more precise than the current one, so we can consider it as the
+actual result.
+
+We know that the exact value of a function at one of it's zeroes is 0. So,
+@ferror@ can be computed exactly as @abs (f a - f 0) == abs (f a)@

+future and check if the result improves at all.

+
+To compute the square root of @c@, we solve the equation @x*x - c = 0@. We will
+stop whenever the accuracy of the result doesn't improve in the next 5 steps.
+
+The starting value for our algorithm is @c@ itself. One could compute a better
+estimate, but the algorithm converges fast enough that it's not really worth it.

+
+Now, we can write some helper functions:
+
+> readLine :: TeletypeM String
+> readLine = unfoldM $ mfilter (/= '\n') <$> readOrEOF
+
+And use them to interact with the user:
+
+> hello :: TeletypeM ()
+> hello = do
+>           (\^^) "Hello! What's your name?"; nL
+>           name <- readLine
+>           "Nice to meet you, %." % [name]; nL
+>           halt
+
+We can transform any @TeletypeM@ into an @IO@ action, and run it:
+
+> main :: IO ()
+> main = runTeletypeIO hello
+
+@
+ Hello! What's your name?
+ $ Dave
+ Nice to meet you, Dave.
+ This conversation can serve no purpose anymore. Goodbye.
+@
+
+When specifying DSLs in this way, we only need to define the semantics
+for each of the actions; the plumbing of values is taken care of by
+the generated monad instance.

 synopsis:      Monads for free
 description:
   Free monads are useful for many tree-like structures and domain specific languages.
   .
-  A 'Monad' @n@ is a free 'Monad' for @f@ if every 'Monad' homomorphism
-  from @n@ to another monad @m@ is equivalent to a natural transformation
-  from @f@ to @m@.
+  If @f@ is a 'Functor' then the free 'Monad' on @f@ is the type
+  of trees whose nodes are labeled with the constructors of @f@. The word
+  \"free\" is used in the sense of \"unrestricted\" rather than \"zero-cost\":
+  @Free f@ makes no constraining assumptions beyond those given by @f@ and the
+  definition of 'Monad'. As used here it is a standard term from the
+  mathematical theory of adjoint functors.
   .
-  Cofree comonads provide convenient ways to talk about branching streams and rose-trees,
-  and can be used to annotate syntax trees.
+  Cofree comonads are dual to free monads. They provide convenient ways to talk
+  about branching streams and rose-trees, and can be used to annotate syntax
+  trees. The cofree comonad can be seen as a stream parameterized by a 'Functor'
+  that controls its branching factor.
   .
-  A 'Comonad' @v@ is a cofree 'Comonad' for @f@ if every 'Comonad' homomorphism
-  another comonad @w@ to @v@ is equivalent to a natural transformation
-  from @w@ to @f@.
+  More information on free monads, including examples, can be found in the
+  following blog posts:
+  <https://ekmett.github.io/reader/2008/monads-for-free/>
+  <https://ekmett.github.io/reader/2011/free-monads-for-less/>

+This comment section is an internal documentation, but written in proper
+Haddock markup. It is to allow rendering them to ease reading this rather long document.
+
+=== About the definition of @Eq1 (Ap f)@ instance
+
+The @Eq1 (Ap f)@ instance below has a complex definition. This comment
+explains why it is defined like that.
+
+The discussion given here also applies to @Ord1 (Ap f)@ instance with a little change.
+
+==== General discussion about @Eq1@ type class
+
+Currently, there isn't a law on the @Eq1@ type class, but the following
+properties can be expected.
+
+* If @Eq (f ())@, and @Functor f@ holds, @Eq1 f@ satisfies
+
+    > liftEq (\_ _ -> True) x y == (() <$ x) == (() <$ y)
+
+* If @Foldable f@ holds, @Eq1 f@ satisfies:
+
+    * @boringEq x y@ implies @length (toList x) == length (toList y)@
+
+    * @liftEq eq x y == liftEq (\_ _ -> True) && all (\(a,b) -> eq a b)) (zip (toList x) (toList y))@
+
+Let's define the commonly used function @liftEq (\\_ _ -> True)@ as @boringEq@.
+
+> boringEq :: Eq1 f => f a -> f b -> Bool
+> boringEq = liftEq (\_ _ -> True)
+
+Changing the constant @True@ to the constant @False@ in the definition of
+@boringEq@, let @emptyEq@ function be defined as:
+
+> emptyEq :: Eq1 f => f a -> f b -> Bool
+> emptyEq = liftEq (\_ _ -> False)
+
+From the above properties expectated on a @Eq1@ instance, @emptyEq@ satisfies the following.
+
+> emptyEq x y = boringEq x y && null (zip (toList x) (toList y))
+
+==== About @instance (Eq1 (Ap f))@
+
+If we're to define @Eq1 (Ap f)@ satisfying these properties as expected, @Eq (Ap f ())@ will determine
+how @liftEq@ should behave. It's not unreasonable to define equality between @Ap f ()@ as below.
+
+> boringEqAp (Pure _) (Pure _) = True
+> boringEqAp (Ap x1 y1) (Ap x2 y2) = boringEq x1 x2 && boringEqAp y1 y2
+>    {-  = ((() <$ x1) == (() <$ x2)) && (y1 == y2)  -}
+> boringEqAp _ _ = False
+
+Its type can be more general than equality between @Ap f ()@:
+
+> boringEqAp :: Eq1 f => Ap f a -> Ap f b -> Bool
+
+Using @boringEqAp@, the specification of @liftEq@ will be:
+
+> liftEq eq x y = boringEqAp x y && and (zipWith eq (toList x) (toList y))
+
+Then unfold @toList@ to remove the dependency to @Foldable@.
+
+> liftEq eq (Pure a1) (Pure a2)
+>   = boringEqAp (Pure a1) (Pure a2) && all (\(a,b) -> eq a b)) (zip (toList (Pure x)) (toList Pure y))
+>   = True && all (\(a,b) -> eq a b) (zip [a1] [a2])
+>   = eq a1 a2
+> liftEq eq (Ap x1 y1) (Ap x2 y2)
+>   = boringEqAp (Ap x1 y1) (Ap x2 y2) && all (\(b1, b2) -> eq b1 b2) (zip (toList (Ap x1 y1)) (toList (Ap x2 y2)))
+>   = boringEq x1 y1 && boringEqAp y1 y2 && all (\(b1, b2) -> eq b1 b2) (zip (toList x1 <**> toList y1) (toList x2 <**> toList y2))
+>   = boringEq x1 y1 && boringEqAp y1 y2 && all (\(b1, b2) -> eq b1 b2) (zip (as1 <**> gs1) (as2 <**> gs2))
+>        where as1 = toList x1
+>              as2 = toList x2
+>              gs1 = toList y1
+>              gs2 = toList y2
+>   = boringEq x1 y1 && boringEqAp y1 y2 && all (\(a1, a2) -> all (\(g1, g2) -> eq (g1 a1) (g2 a2)) (zip gs1 gs2)) (zip as1 as2)
+
+If @zip as1 as2@ is /not/ empty, the following transformation is valid.
+
+> (...) | not (null (zip as1 as2))
+>   = boringEq x1 x2 && boringEqAp y1 y2 && all (\(a1, a2) -> all (\(g1, g2) -> eq (g1 a1) (g2 a2)) (zip gs1 gs2)) (zip as1 as2)
+>   = boringEq x1 x2 && all (\(a1, a2) -> boringEqAp y1 y2 && all (\(g1, g2) -> eq (g1 a1) (g2 a2)) (zip gs1 gs2)) (zip as1 as2)
+> --                                      ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+>   = boringEq x1 x2 && all (\(a1, a2) -> liftEq (\g1 g2 -> eq (g1 a1) (g2 a2)) y1 y2) (zip as1 as2)
+>   = liftEq (\a1 a2 -> liftEq (\g1 g2 -> eq (g1 a1) (g2 a2)) y1 y2)) x1 x2
+
+Because, generally, the following transformation is valid if @xs@ is a nonempty list.
+
+> cond && all p xs = all (\x -> cond && p x) xs -- Only when xs is not empty!
+
+If @zip as1 as2@ is empty, @all (...) (zip as1 as2)@ is vacuously true, so the following transformation is valid.
+
+> (...) | null (zip as1 as2)
+>   = boringEq x1 x2 && boringEqAp y1 y2 && all (\(a1, a2) -> all (\(g1, g2) -> eq (g1 a1) (g2 a2)) (zip gs1 gs2)) (zip as1 as2)
+>   = boringEq x1 x2 && boringEqAp y1 y2
+
+Combining two cases:
+
+> liftEq eq (Ap x1 y1) (Ap x2 y2)
+>   = null (zip as1 as2) && boringEq x1 x2 && boringEqAp y1 y2
+>       || not (null (zip as1 as2)) && liftEq (\a1 a2 -> liftEq (\g1 g2 -> eq (g1 a1) (g2 a2)) y1 y2)) x1 x2
+>   = null (zip as1 as2) && boringEq x1 x2 && boringEqAp y1 y2
+>       || liftEq (\a1 a2 -> liftEq (\g1 g2 -> eq (g1 a1) (g2 a2)) y1 y2)) x1 x2
+>   = emptyEq x1 x2 && boringEqAp y1 y2
+>       || liftEq (\a1 a2 -> liftEq (\g1 g2 -> eq (g1 a1) (g2 a2)) y1 y2)) x1 x2
+
+The property about @emptyEq@ is used in the last equation.
+
+Hence it's defined as this source code.

+-- \"Applicative Effects in Free Monads\"
+--
+-- Often times, the '(\<*\>)' operator can be more efficient than 'ap'.
+-- Conventional free monads don't provide any means of modeling this.
+-- The free monad can be modified to make use of an underlying applicative.
+-- But it does require some laws, or else the '(\<*\>)' = 'ap' law is broken.
+-- When interpreting this free monad with 'foldFree',
+-- the natural transformation must be an applicative homomorphism.
+-- An applicative homomorphism @hm :: (Applicative f, Applicative g) => f x -> g x@
+-- will satisfy these laws.
+--
+-- * @hm (pure a) = pure a@
+-- * @hm (f \<*\> a) = hm f \<*\> hm a@
+--
+-- This is based on the \"Applicative Effects in Free Monads\" series of articles by Will Fancher

 -- \"Free Monads for Less\"
 --
--- This is based on the \"Free Monads for Less\" series of articles:
+-- The most straightforward way of implementing free monads is as a recursive
+-- datatype that allows for arbitrarily deep nesting of the base functor. This is
+-- akin to a tree, with the leaves containing the values, and the nodes being a
+-- level of 'Functor' over subtrees.
 --
--- <http://comonad.com/reader/2011/free-monads-for-less/>
--- <http://comonad.com/reader/2011/free-monads-for-less-2/>
+-- For each time that the `fmap` or `>>=` operations is used, the old tree is
+-- traversed up to the leaves, a new set of nodes is allocated, and
+-- the old ones are garbage collected. Even if the Haskell runtime
+-- optimizes some of the overhead through laziness and generational garbage
+-- collection, the asymptotic runtime is still quadratic.
+--
+-- On the other hand, if the Church encoding is used, the tree only needs to be
+-- constructed once, because:
+--
+-- * All uses of `fmap` are collapsed into a single one, so that the values on the
+--   _leaves_ are transformed in one pass.
+--
+--   prop> fmap f . fmap g == fmap (f . g)
+--
+-- * All uses of `>>=` are right associated, so that every new subtree created
+--   is final.
+--
+--   prop> (m >>= f) >>= g == m >>= (\x -> f x >>= g)
+--
+-- Asymptotically, the Church encoding supports the monadic operations more
+-- efficiently than the naïve 'Free'.

+
+{- $doc
+ To generate free monadic actions from a @Type@, it must be a @data@
+ declaration (maybe GADT) with at least one free variable. For each constructor of the type, a
+ new function will be declared.
+
+ Consider the following generalized definitions:
+
+ > data Type a1 a2 … aN param = …
+ >                            | FooBar t1 t2 t3 … tJ
+ >                            | (:+) t1 t2 t3 … tJ
+ >                            | t1 :* t2
+ >                            | t1 `Bar` t2
+ >                            | Baz { x :: t1, y :: t2, …, z :: tJ }
+ >                            | forall b1 b2 … bN. cxt => Qux t1 t2 … tJ
+ >                            | …
+
+ where each of the constructor arguments @t1, …, tJ@ is either:
+
+ 1. A type, perhaps depending on some of the @a1, …, aN@.
+
+ 2. A type dependent on @param@, of the form @s1 -> … -> sM -> param@, M ≥ 0.
+      At most 2 of the @t1, …, tJ@ may be of this form. And, out of these two,
+      at most 1 of them may have @M == 0@; that is, be of the form @param@.
+
+ For each constructor, a function will be generated. First, the name
+ of the function is derived from the name of the constructor:
+
+ * For prefix constructors, the name of the constructor with the first
+   letter in lowercase (e.g. @FooBar@ turns into @fooBar@).
+
+ * For infix constructors, the name of the constructor with the first
+   character (a colon @:@), removed (e.g. @:+@ turns into @+@).
+
+ Then, the type of the function is derived from the arguments to the constructor:
+
+ > …
+ > fooBar :: (MonadFree Type m) => t1' -> … -> tK' -> m ret
+ > (+)    :: (MonadFree Type m) => t1' -> … -> tK' -> m ret
+ > bar    :: (MonadFree Type m) => t1  -> … -> tK' -> m ret
+ > baz    :: (MonadFree Type m) => t1' -> … -> tK' -> m ret
+ > qux    :: (MonadFree Type m, cxt) => t1' -> … -> tK' -> m ret
+ > …
+
+ The @t1', …, tK'@ are those @t1@ … @tJ@ that only depend on the
+ @a1, …, aN@.
+
+ The type @ret@ depends on those constructor arguments that reference the
+ @param@ type variable:
+
+     1. If no arguments to the constructor depend on @param@, @ret ≡ a@, where
+       @a@ is a fresh type variable.
+
+     2. If only one argument in the constructor depends on @param@, then
+       @ret ≡ (s1, …, sM)@. In particular, if @M == 0@, then @ret ≡ ()@; if @M == 1@, @ret ≡ s1@.
+
+     3. If two arguments depend on @param@, (e.g. @u1 -> … -> uL -> param@ and
+       @v1 -> … -> vM -> param@, then @ret ≡ Either (u1, …, uL) (v1, …, vM)@.
+
+ Note that @Either a ()@ and @Either () a@ are both isomorphic to @Maybe a@.
+ Because of this, when @L == 0@ or @M == 0@ in case 3., the type of
+ @ret@ is simplified:
+
+     * @ret ≡ Either (u1, …, uL) ()@ is rewritten to @ret ≡ Maybe (u1, …, uL)@.
+
+     * @ret ≡ Either () (v1, …, vM)@ is rewritten to @ret ≡ Maybe (v1, …, vM)@.

+  -- has type Int, there should exist a value of the type such that the expression
+  -- can be replaced by that value in any context without changing the meaning
+  -- of the program.
+  --
+  -- Some computations may perform side effects (@unsafePerformIO@), throw an
+  -- exception (using @error@); or not terminate
+  -- (@let infinity = 1 + infinity in infinity@).
+  --
+  -- While the 'IO' monad encapsulates side-effects, and the 'Either'
+  -- monad encapsulates errors, the 'Iter' monad encapsulates
+  -- non-termination. The 'IterT' transformer generalizes non-termination to any monadic
+  -- computation.
+  --
+  -- Computations in 'IterT' (or 'Iter') can be composed in two ways:
+  --
+  -- * /Sequential:/ Using the 'Monad' instance, the result of a computation
+  --   can be fed into the next.
+  --
+  -- * /Parallel:/ Using the 'MonadPlus' instance, several computations can be
