FlexibleInstances
常规实例需要:
All instance types must be of the form (T a1 ... an)
where a1 ... an are *distinct type variables*,
and each type variable appears at most once in the instance head.
这意味着,例如,虽然你可以为 [a]
创建实例,但你无法为 [Int]
创建实例。FlexibleInstances
放松了:
class C a where
-- works out of the box
instance C [a] where
-- requires FlexibleInstances
instance C [Int] where
