Interfaces are a way to define a set of functions that a type must implement. In Haskell, we can achieve similar functionality using typeclasses.
To run this program, save it as Geometry.hs and use ghc to compile it:
In this Haskell version, we use a typeclass Shape to define the interface for geometric shapes. The Rectangle and Circle types then implement this typeclass. The measure function can work with any type that implements the Shape typeclass.
This demonstrates how Haskell’s typeclasses can be used to achieve similar functionality to interfaces in other languages, allowing for polymorphic behavior while maintaining type safety.
