[Haskell-cafe] Stack ADT?

I was looking here: http://www.haskell.org/haskellwiki/Abstract_data_type

I haven't done much with modules so I'm guessing what you've provided is the guts of StackImpl, to hide the implementation?

Thanks,

Michael

Could not find one on Hackage either. Probably because its so easy to handcraft your own:

    newtype Stack a = Stack [a]

    emptyStack = Stack []

    isEmptyStack (Stack xs) = null xs

    push x (Stack xs) = Stack (x:xs)

    pop (Stack (_:xs)) = Stack xs

    top (Stack (x:_)) = x

I saw such stacks in Haskell only for educational purposes. Usually, people seem to use lists directly.
