```
```
-- foobar.cabal
name: foobar
version: 0.1.0.0
build-type: Simple
cabal-version: >=1.10
library
build-depends: base
exposed-modules: Foobar
benchmark bench
type: exitcode-stdio-1.0
build-depends: base, foobar
main-is: Bench.hs
```
```hs

module Foobar where
```
```hs

- cabal-install-1.24.0.2, Cabal-1.24.2.0
