To produce the haddocks and open them in a browser
Example
{-# LANGUAGE TypeApplications, ScopedTypeVariables #-}
module Main where
import qualified ArrayFire as A
import Control.Exception (catch)
main :: IO ()
main = print newArray `catch` (\(e :: A.AFException) -> print e)
where
newArray = A.matrix @Double (2,2) [ [1..], [1..] ] * A.matrix @Double (2,2) [ [2..], [2..] ]
