A type constructor or class can be an operator, beginning with a colon; e.g. :*:. The lexical syntax is the same as that for data constructors.

Algebraic data type - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
In computer programming, an algebraic data type (sometimes also called a variant type ) is a datatype each of whose values is data from other datatypes wrapped in one of the constructors of the da...

Although the goals and means of rule-based and data-based systems are too different to be fully integrated at the present time, it seems appropriate to investigate a closer integration of language constructs and a better cooperation of execution models for both kinds of approaches.

Haskell calls this pattern "Existential Data Construction."; In A History of Haskell: Being Lazy With Class , Hudak, Hughes, Wadler, and Jones provide the following Haskell datatype as motivation for existential data constructors.

2.5 Data constructors and pattern matching ... As in most functional languages, data constructors are used both to construct values and to deconstruct them. ... Most constants and data constructors are defined as part of concrete type definitions. Moby provides three kinds of concrete type definition: datatypes, enumerations,
