Showing
Arguments
| :: Real a | |
| => (a -> ShowS) | a function that can show unsigned values | 
| -> Int | the precedence of the enclosing context | 
| -> a | the value to show | 
| -> ShowS | 
Converts a possibly-negative Real value to a string.
showIntAtBase :: (Integral a, Show a) => a -> (Int -> Char) -> a -> ShowS Source
Shows a non-negative Integral number using the base specified by the
 first argument, and the character representation specified by the second.
showEFloat :: RealFloat a => Maybe Int -> a -> ShowS Source
Show a signed RealFloat value
 using scientific (exponential) notation (e.g. 2.45e2, 1.5e-3).
In the call showEFloat digs valdigs is Nothing,
 the value is shown to full precision; if digs is Just dd digits after the decimal point are shown.
showFFloat :: RealFloat a => Maybe Int -> a -> ShowS Source
Show a signed RealFloat value
 using standard decimal notation (e.g. 245000, 0.0015).
In the call showFFloat digs valdigs is Nothing,
 the value is shown to full precision; if digs is Just dd digits after the decimal point are shown.
showGFloat :: RealFloat a => Maybe Int -> a -> ShowS Source
Show a signed RealFloat value
 using standard decimal notation for arguments whose absolute value lies
 between 0.1 and 9,999,999, and scientific notation otherwise.
In the call showGFloat digs valdigs is Nothing,
 the value is shown to full precision; if digs is Just dd digits after the decimal point are shown.
showFFloatAlt :: RealFloat a => Maybe Int -> a -> ShowS Source
Show a signed RealFloat value
 using standard decimal notation (e.g. 245000, 0.0015).
This behaves as showFFloat, except that a decimal point
 is always guaranteed, even if not needed.
Since: 4.7.0.0
showGFloatAlt :: RealFloat a => Maybe Int -> a -> ShowS Source
Show a signed RealFloat value
 using standard decimal notation for arguments whose absolute value lies
 between 0.1 and 9,999,999, and scientific notation otherwise.
This behaves as showFFloat, except that a decimal point
 is always guaranteed, even if not needed.
Since: 4.7.0.0
showFloat :: RealFloat a => a -> ShowS Source
Show a signed RealFloat value to full precision
 using standard decimal notation for arguments whose absolute value lies
 between 0.1 and 9,999,999, and scientific notation otherwise.
floatToDigits :: RealFloat a => Integer -> a -> ([Int], Int) Source
floatToDigits takes a base and a non-negative RealFloat number,
 and returns a list of digits and an exponent.
 In particular, if x>=0, and
floatToDigits base x = ([d1,d2,...,dn], e)
then
- n >= 1 
- x = 0.d1d2...dn * (base**e) 
- 0 <= di <= base-1 
Reading
NB: readInt is the 'dual' of showIntAtBase,
 and readDec is the `dual' of showInt.
 The inconsistent naming is a historical accident.
readSigned :: Real a => ReadS a -> ReadS a Source
Reads a signed Real value, given a reader for an unsigned value.
Arguments
| :: Num a | |
| => a | the base | 
| -> (Char -> Bool) | a predicate distinguishing valid digits in this base | 
| -> (Char -> Int) | a function converting a valid digit character to an  | 
| -> ReadS a | 
Reads an unsigned Integral value in an arbitrary base.
readHex :: (Eq a, Num a) => ReadS a Source
Read an unsigned number in hexadecimal notation. Both upper or lower case letters are allowed.
readFloat :: RealFrac a => ReadS a Source
Reads an unsigned RealFrac value,
 expressed in decimal scientific notation.
