-- | @'fix' f@ is the least fixed point of the function @f@,
-- i.e. the least defined @x@ such that @f x = x@.
--
-- For example, we can write the factorial function using direct recursion as
--
-- >>> let fac n = if n <= 1 then 1 else n * fac (n-1) in fac 5
-- 120
--
-- This uses the fact that Haskell’s @let@ introduces recursive bindings. We can
-- rewrite this definition using 'fix',
--
-- >>> fix (\rec n -> if n <= 1 then 1 else n * rec (n-1)) 5
-- 120
--
-- Instead of making a recursive call, we introduce a dummy parameter @rec@;
-- when used within 'fix', this parameter then refers to 'fix'’s argument, hence
-- the recursion is reintroduced.

-- | @'on' b u x y@ runs the binary function @b@ /on/ the results of applying
