deterministic operation |
documentation: |
`on f g x y` applies the binary operation `f` to the results of applying operation `g` to two arguments `x` and `y`. Thus, it transforms two inputs and combines the outputs. (*) `on` f = \x y -> f x * f y A typical usage of this operation is: sortBy ((<=) `on` fst) |
