{-| This module contains the core calculus for the Morte language. This
language is a minimalist implementation of the calculus of constructions,
which is in turn a specific kind of pure type system. If you are new to
pure type systems you may wish to read \"Henk: a typed intermediate
language\".
<http://research.microsoft.com/en-us/um/people/simonpj/papers/henk.ps.gz>
Morte is a strongly normalizing language, meaning that:
* Every expression has a unique normal form computed by `normalize`
* You test expressions for equality of their normal forms using `==`
* Equational reasoning preserves normal forms
Strong normalization comes at a price: Morte forbids recursion. Instead,
you must translate all recursion to F-algebras and translate all corecursion
to F-coalgebras. If you are new to F-(co)algebras then you may wish to read
"Morte.Tutorial" or read \"Recursive types for free!\":
<http://homepages.inf.ed.ac.uk/wadler/papers/free-rectypes/free-rectypes.txt>
Morte is designed to be a super-optimizing intermediate language with a
simple optimization scheme. You optimize a Morte expression by just
normalizing the expression. If you normalize a long-lived program encoded
as an F-coalgebra you typically get a state machine, and if you normalize a
long-lived program encoded as an F-algebra you typically get an unrolled
loop.
Strong normalization guarantees that all abstractions encodable in Morte are
\"free\", meaning that they may increase your program's compile times but
they will never increase your program's run time because they will normalize
to the same code.
