The idea behind this library is to provide a bit-manipulation primitives together with type classes that capture isomorphism between your custom types and arrays of bits.
Additionally, library provides [Un]signed integer types of a size fixed at the type level:
> pulp psci > import Prelude > import Data.Binary (toBits) > import Data.Binary.UnsignedInt > import Data.Typelevel.Num > uint32 = fromInt d32 > bits = uint32 >>> toBits > uint32 100 UnsignedInt32#1100100 > :t uint32 100 UnsignedInt (NumCons D3 D2) > bits 100 [0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,1,1,0,0,1,0,0] > two = uint32 2 > five = uint32 5 > toBits (two * five) [0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,1,0,1,0] > import Data.Bounded > (top :: UnsignedInt D17) UnsignedInt17#11111111111111111 > (bottom :: UnsignedInt D17) UnsignedInt17#0
> import Data.Binary.SignedInt > import Data.Typelevel.Num > import Data.Bounded > (bottom :: SignedInt D5) SignedInt5#10000 > (top :: SignedInt D5) SignedInt5#01111
