+convertible provides a typeclass with a single function that is designed
+to help convert between different types: numeric values, dates and times,
+and the like. The conversions perform bounds checking and return a pure
+Either value. This means that you need not remember which specific function

+types, as well as utilities for writing your own instances. Finally, there
+is a function that will raise an exception on bounds-checking violation,

+marshalling of data to and from databases. Convertible is backed by an
+extensive test suite and passes tests on GHC and Hugs.
