gollark: This is monomorphised to, if you use it for floats and ints, say,```haskellapifyBees__Int :: Int -> Int -> IntapifyBees__Int x y z = z - y * xapifyBees__Double :: Float -> Float -> FloatapifyBees__Double x y z = z - y * x```
gollark: As in, it can take any type satisfying the constraints as `a`.
gollark: This is "generic" over the type of `a`.
gollark: For example,```haskellapifyBees :: Number a => a -> a -> aapifyBees x y z = z - y * x```
gollark: You convert generic functions to many nongeneric ones during compilation.

- The International Olympic Committee formally stripped the US team of their gold medals following the admission of Antonio Pettigrew that he had been using performance-enhancing drugs while competing in Sydney (he voluntarily returned his medal earlier).
- Marion Jones of the United States admitted to having taken performance enhancing drugs prior to the 2000 Summer Olympics. She relinquished her medals to the United States Olympic Committee and the International Olympic Committee formally stripped her of her medals. Her medals were reawarded as follows
- 100 metres
- not awarded
- 200 metres
- Long jump
- The IAAF recommended to the IOC Executive Board to disqualify the USA women's 4x100 m and 4x400 m relay teams after Marion Jones admitted to having taken performance enhancing drugs prior to the Games. The IOC disqualified both U.S. relay teams and asked for Jones' teammates' medals to be returned. France (Linda Ferga, Muriel Hurtis, Fabe Dia, Christine Arron, Sandra Citte*) finished fourth in the 4×100 m relay in a time of 42.42, and Nigeria (Olabisi Afolabi, Opara Charity, Rosemary Okafor, Falilat Ogunkoya-Osheku, Doris Jacob*) finished fourth in the 4×400 m relay in a time of 3:23.80. All members of the U.S. relay teams except Nanceen Perry (and Marion Jones) then appealed to the Court of Arbitration for Sport who ruled in favor of them due to the fact that, according to the rules at the time, a team should not be disqualified because of a doping offense of one athlete. Their medals were then restored to them.
- The IOC report (page 447 of 548) incorrectly states that Pantelimon finished fourth, despite having an identical jumping record.
