...f these libraries also provide a bunch of extra combinators on top, and usually some form of template haskell machinery to automatically generate lenses for the fields of simple record types.

Here is an implementation of the Haversine method in Java which also takes into account height differences between two points. /** * Calculate distance between two po...

... Look in /lib or /usr/lib. The libraries are all named lib<name>.a or lib<name>.so - it's the "<name>" you put after the -l. In this case, the math library is named libm.so, so we call it -lm. – ams Dec 29 '11 at ...

...orm extremely badly with g++ 5.2 -O3, and Boost 1.58 (like 30x worse than calling glibc's toupper in a loop.) There's a dynamic_cast of the locale that doesn't get hoisted out of the per-char loop. See my answer. On the plus side, this may be properly UTF-8 aware, but the slowdown doesn't come fr...
