Module Data.FiniteMap

IMPORTANT NOTE: This library is deprecated and included only for compatibility with older programs. Use library Data.Map instead!

A finite map is an efficient purely functional data structure to store a mapping from keys to values. In order to store the mapping efficiently, an irreflexive(!) order predicate has to be given, i.e., the order predicate le should not satisfy (le x x) for some key x.

Example: To store a mapping from Int -> String, the finite map needs a Boolean predicate like (<). This version was ported from a corresponding Haskell library
