The Design of a Pretty-printing Library John Hughes
Documents "text" concat(document1, document2) nest(document, columns)
"[" |> concat("1,") |> concat("2,") |> concat("3") |> concat("]") [1,
2, 3]
"[" |> line("1,") |> line("2,") |> line("3") |> nest(2) |>
line("]") [ 1, 2, 3 ]
A Prettier Printer Philip Wadler
group( "[" |> concat("1,") |> concat("2,") |> concat("3") |> nest(2)
|> concat("]") ) [ 1, 2, 3 ]
choose( doc, replace_concat_with_line_break(doc) ) DANGER: STRICT LANGUAGE AHEAD
Strictly Pretty Christian Lindig
Our documents color(doc, :blue) nest(doc, :cursor) ...
DIFFING DATA STRUCTURES
1) test two strings are different (Test) test.ex:6 Assertion with
== failed code: assert "hello world!" == "Hello, my world" left: "hello world!" right: "Hello, my world" stacktrace: test.ex:7: (test)

An O(ND) Difference Algorithm and Its Variations Eugene W. Myers
“Find the shortest edit script to turn a sequence A
into a sequence B.” = Find shortest path in a graph
O(ND) D is related to how "similar" the two sequences
are DNA strand mutation source code changes
iex> List.myers_difference([1, 4, 2, 3], [1, 2, 3, 4]) [eq:
[1], del: [4], eq: [2, 3], ins: [4]]
Now colorize

Property-based testing
check all list <- list_of(term()) do sorted = sort(list) assert
is_list(sorted) assert length(list) == length(sorted) end
String.starts_with?(s1 <> s2, s1) String.ends_with?(s1 <> s2, s2) For any
strings s1 and s2:
Only Erlang tools (with different license)
QuickCheck: A Lightweight Tool for Random Testing of Haskell Programs
Koen Classen John Hughes
all the base ideas are there but it relies too
heavily on types
data Colour = Red | Blue | Green instance Arbitrary
Colour where arbitrary = oneof [return Red, return Blue, return Green]
(prop/for-all [v (gen/vector gen/int)] (= (sort v) (sort (sort v))))
Clojure's test.check
StreamData check all s1 <- string(), s2 <- string() do
assert String.starts_with?(s1 <> s2, s1) assert String.ends_with?(s1 <> s2, s2) end
Generators functions that take some random state and return a
lazy tree
Lazy tree a value plus a "recipe" for shrinking it
StreamData.integer() 3 0 2 0 1 0
StreamData.integer() 3 0 2 0 1 0
map(StreamData.integer(), fn x -> x * 2 end) 3 *
2 0 * 2 2 * 2 0 * 2 1 * 2 0 * 2
map(StreamData.integer(), fn x -> x * 2 end) 6 0
