conal / Lambda Ccc

Convert lambda expressions to CCC combinators and then to circuits.

Additional info:

• Project notes.
• The talk From Haskell to Hardware via CCCs.
• Instructions in test/Tests.hs.

Dependencies:

• GHC 7.8.2 or better
• KURE, commit 7ce26aa
• HERMIT, commit 5557609
• hermit-extras
• circat, for circuit specification, display, and conversion to netlists.

To use these versions of KURE and HERMIT, clone the repos (or pull if already cloned), and use "git checkout [commit-id]".

To try out:

• cabal install circat and lambda-ccc (in that order)

• In a shell, cd to lambda-ccc/test, and type make. If all works, you'll see something like the following output:

  bash-3.2$ ./test

The .v.txt file is Verilog code. Additionally the PDF will be displayed if the display code figures out how to on your system.

There are many other examples in test/TreeTest.hs. At any time, all examples but one are commented out.
