reform-0.1.1: Text/Reform/Proof.hs
{- |
This module defines the 'Proof' type, some proofs, and some helper functions.
A 'Proof' does three things:
- verifies that the input value meets some criteria
- optionally transforms the input value to another value while preserving that criteria
- puts the proof name in type-signature where the type-checker can use it

-- | A 'Proof' attempts to prove something about a value.
--
-- If successful, it can also transform the value to a new value. The
-- proof should hold for the new value as well.
--
-- Generally, each 'Proof' has a unique data-type associated with it
-- which names the proof, such as:
--
-- > data NotNull = NotNull
--
data Proof m error proof a b
= Proof { proofName :: proof -- ^ name of the thing to prove
, proofFunction :: a -> m (Either error b) -- ^ function which provides the proof
}
-- | apply a 'Proof' to a 'Form'
