@Bert first& second are exactly what I was looking for. Thanks.
@Thomas: I'm not sure what you mean by fmap
What I wanted is to do this:
> let f = map $ first (*2)
> f [(1,1),(2,2),(3,3),(4,4)]
[(2,1),(4,2),(6,3),(8,4)]

Actually it's second that is fmap.
Prelude> :m +Control.Monad.Instances Control.Arrow
Prelude Control.Monad.Instances Control.Arrow> fmap (*2) (1,3)
(1,6)
Prelude Control.Monad.Instances Control.Arrow> second (*2) (1,3)
(1,6)

If I want to define a constant set in Python I would do this:
class Colors:
red = 1
blue=2
...
and then I use them like this: Colors.red, Colors.blue...
Can I do something similar in Haskell?
thanks

In Haskell this would usually be an abstract type:
data Color = Red | Blue | ...
You could then use functions to convert between integers and colors.
fromColor :: Color -> Int
toColor :: Int -> Maybe Color
You could also derive an Enum instance and get the conversion functions
'fromEnum' and 'toEnum' for free, although in that case the 'toEnum'
function is less safe (no Maybe):
data Color = Red | Blue | ...
deriving Enum
fromEnum :: Color -> Int
toEnum :: Int -> Color

While the function arrow mentioned by Brent is enough for many purposes,
I just want to have mentioned Edward Kmett's amazing data-lens library,
which provides prefab lenses for tuples:
(3, 5) ^. fstLens = 3
(3, 5) ^. sndLens = 5
(fstLens ^= 4) (3, 5) = (4, 5)
(sndLens ^= 4) (3, 5) = (3, 4)
(fstLens ^%= f) (3, 5) = (f 3, 5)
This is especially useful when your tuple is part of the implicit
argument of a state monad (data-lens-fd package):
access fstLens :: State (a, b) a
-- starting state (3, 5)
fstLens ~= 10 -- (10, 5)
fstLens += 1 -- (11, 5)
fstLens %= negate -- (-11, 5)
focus fstLens $ do
-- Do something with only the fst value here.

HI,
I am learning haskell by writing small programs. In this instance I want to
write a program using the haskell binding of the NCurses library.
Here is the (rather simple) code:
import UI.NCurses
main = do
putStrLn "Hello World"
When I try to run it:
$ runhaskell cursesprog.hs
cursesprog.hs: <command line>: can't load .so/.DLL for: ncursesw
(/usr/lib/libncursesw.so: file too short)
The file certainly exists but is only 32 bytes. I installed from Ubuntu's
package manager. I am working on a 64 bit machine (if that helps).
Can someone help me fix this?
Thanks,
Aditya.

It appears that this is a problem related to ghc:
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=578509
I am using ghc 7.0.3 which comes with the latest Ubuntu (11.10). Would
installing the latest ghc release help?
