Comment (by simonpj):

 > Is there document for Core?

 Actually Core is rather carefully documented. Look in
 [https://github.com/ghc/ghc/tree/master/docs/core-spec docs/core-spec].
 For convenience (and against convention, since it's a generated file)
 there's a [https://github.com/ghc/ghc/blob/master/docs/core-spec/core-
 spec.pdf typeset PDF] there too.

 Richard wrote this document.  I like to keep it up to date.
