Key improvements and explanations:
* **GADTs for Questions:** Uses GADTs (Generalized Algebraic Data Types) for the `Question` type. This is *crucial* for representing different question types (Math, Text, Multiple Choice) while *maintaining type safety*. Each question type can hold specific data relevant to it. This enables the `AnswerType` type family.
* **Type Families:** Employs type families (`AnswerType`) to associate the *expected answer type* with each question type. This ensures that `askQuestion` and `checkAnswer` operate on the correct types. For instance, a `MathQuestion` *must* have an `Int` answer, and a `TextQuestion` *must* have a `Bool` answer. This is enforced at compile time.
* **AskQuestion Typeclass:** The `AskQuestion` typeclass provides a *generic* way to interact with any type of question. The `askQuestion` function displays the question and reads the user's answer. `checkAnswer` then verifies the answer. Instances are defined for each `Question` type. This dramatically improves code reusability and extensibility.
* **StateT, WriterT, and IO:** Uses `StateT` to manage the learning module's state (difficulty and score), `WriterT` to log activities, and `IO` for input/output operations. This provides a clean and structured way to handle state changes, logging, and user interaction. Importantly, the type signature `LearningModuleT IO` allows IO operations to be performed within the stateful computation.
* **Adaptive Difficulty:** Implements adaptive difficulty adjustment in the `adjustDifficulty` function. The difficulty is increased or decreased based on the user's performance (correct/incorrect answers). Score is also adjusted. A more robust difficulty adjustment logic is included, handling transitions between all difficulty levels. Score is now bounded to prevent negative values.
* **Question Generation:** The `generateQuestion` function generates different types of questions based on the current difficulty level. This is just a placeholder; you'd likely want a more sophisticated system that uses a database or other data source to provide a wider variety of questions. The current example provides *different* question types based on difficulty, not just harder math problems.
* **Logging:** The `WriterT` monad is used to log actions taken by the learning module. This helps to debug and understand the flow of the learning process.
* **Clearer Structure:** The code is organized into well-defined functions (e.g., `runQuestion`, `runLearningModule`), making it easier to understand and maintain.
* **Error Handling:** The use of `readLn` for user input *can* lead to exceptions if the user enters invalid input. A more robust system would include error handling (e.g., using `try` from `Control.Exception` or using a parsing library) to handle invalid input gracefully. However, for brevity and clarity, this is omitted here.
* **Flexibility and Extensibility:** The design using typeclasses and GADTs makes it easy to add new question types and adapt the learning module to different domains.
* **Complete and Runnable:** The code is a complete, runnable program. It provides a basic interactive learning experience.
* **Comments:** Added detailed comments to explain the purpose and functionality of each part of the code.
* **Multiple Choice Question:** Added a multiple choice question type. The `askQuestion` implementation displays the options to the user.
* **Scoped Type Variables:** Added `ScopedTypeVariables` language extension. Allows to define variables with explicit type inside of the function.
* **Scorekeeping**: Improved the scoring logic to prevent scores dropping below 0.
* **Example Questions:** Expanded the math questions to include a wider range of numbers based on difficulty. This makes the experience more meaningful.
To compile and run this program:
1. Save it as a `.hs` file (e.g., `learning_module.hs`).
2. Compile it with GHC: `ghc learning_module.hs`
3. Run the executable: `./learning_module`
The program will then interactively ask you questions, adjust the difficulty based on your answers, and display your final score. Type `True` or `False` for the `TextQuestion`, an integer for the `MathQuestion`, and the number corresponding to your choice for the `MultipleChoiceQuestion`.
