Applicative overview

The Applicative type class extends the Apply type class with a of function, which can be used to create values of type f a from values of type a.

Where Apply provides the ability to lift functions of two or more arguments to functions whose arguments are wrapped using f, and Functor provides the ability to lift functions of one argument, pure can be seen as the function which lifts functions of zero arguments. That is, Applicative functors support a lifting operation for any number of function arguments.

Instances must satisfy the following laws in addition to the Apply laws:

  1. Identity: A.ap(A.of(a => a), fa) <-> fa
  2. Homomorphism: A.ap(A.of(ab), A.of(a)) <-> A.of(ab(a))
  3. Interchange: A.ap(fab, A.of(a)) <-> A.ap(A.of(ab => ab(a)), fab)

Note. Functor’s map can be derived: A.map(x, f) = A.ap(A.of(f), x)
