13. fix 1. The fixed point combinator. Called Y in combinatory logic. Fix is a higher-order function which returns a fixed point of its argument which is a function. fix :: a -> a -> a fix f = f fix f Which satisfies the equation fix f = x such that f x = x. Somewhat surprisingly, fix can be defined as the non-recursive lambda abstraction: fix = h . x . h x x x . h x x Since this involves self-application, it has an infinite type. A function defined by f x1 . . xN = E can be expressed as f = fix f . x1 . . . xN . E = f . x1 . . . xN . E fix f . x1 . . . xN . E = let f = fix f . x1 . . . xN . E in x1 . . . xN . E If f does not occur free in E i. e. it is not recursive then this reduces to simply f = x1 . . . xN . E In the case where N = 0 and f is free in E, this defines an infinite data object, e. g. ones = fix ones . 1 : ones = ones . 1 : ones fix ones . 1 : ones = 1 : fix ones . 1 : ones = 1 : 1 : . . . Fix f is also sometimes written as mu f where mu is the Greek letter or alternatively, if f = x . E, written as mu x . E. Compare quine. [Jargon File]
