-Description: Typeclasses and instances for converting between types, Hugs package
- convertible provides a typeclass with a single function
- that is designed to help convert between different types: numeric
- values, dates and times, and the like.  The conversions perform bounds
- checking and return a pure Either value.  This means that you need
- not remember which specific function performs the conversion you
- desire.
- .
- Also included in the package are optional instances that provide
- conversion for various numeric and time types, as well as utilities
- for writing your own instances.
- .
- Finally, there is a function that will raise an exception on
- bounds-checking violation, or return a bare value otherwise,
- implemented in terms of the safer function described above.
- .
- Convertible is also used by HDBC 2.0 for handling marshalling of
- data to/from databases.
- .
- Convertible is backed by an extensive test suite and passes tests
- on GHC and Hugs.
