Jun 19, 2013 at 4:51 comment added Tom LaGatta @Qiaochu: thank you! I did not know this. So this is a way to model any arbitrary finite set, correct? ncatlab.org/nlab/show/hereditarily+finite+set
Jun 19, 2013 at 4:47 comment added Tom LaGatta @Matteo: yes, that's exactly the point. Furthermore, I want to have the flexibility of dealing with arbitrary belief hierarchies. e.g., a space $X$, its space of measures $M(X, \mathbb R)$, the space of measures over that $M( M(X, \mathbb R), \mathbb R)$, etc.

Jun 18, 2013 at 20:15 comment added Qiaochu Yuan Haskell can at least model hereditarily finite sets: that's a fairly simple recursive data type (a hereditarily finite set is a finite list of hereditarily finite sets, more or less).
Jun 18, 2013 at 18:36 comment added user11618 Just out curiosity: what kind of computer programs do you have in mind? Something to do with measure (probability) theory, e.g., probabilistic computations over some uncountable domain?
