Name : ghc9.4
Product : Fedora 36
Version : 9.4.2
Release : 10.fc36
URL : https://haskell.org/ghc/
Summary : Glasgow Haskell Compiler
Description :
GHC is a state-of-the-art, open source, compiler and interactive environment
for the functional language Haskell. Highlights:
- GHC supports the entire Haskell 2010 language plus a wide variety of
extensions.
- GHC has particularly good support for concurrency and parallelism,
including support for Software Transactional Memory (STM).
- GHC generates fast code, particularly for concurrent programs.
Take a look at GHC's performance on The Computer Language Benchmarks Game.
- GHC works on several platforms including Windows, Mac, Linux,
most varieties of Unix, and several different processor architectures.
- GHC has extensive optimisation capabilities, including inter-module
optimisation.
- GHC compiles Haskell code either directly to native code or using LLVM
as a back-end. GHC can also generate C code as an intermediate target for
porting to new platforms. The interactive environment compiles Haskell to
bytecode, and supports execution of mixed bytecode/compiled programs.
- Profiling is supported, both by time/allocation and various kinds of heap
profiling.
- GHC comes with several libraries, and thousands more are available on Hackage.
