Hi,
I have a question about functor applicate.
I know that:
pure (+1) <*> Just 2
produce: Just 3
because pure (+1) produce Just (+1) and then Just (+1) <*> Just 2
produce Just (2+1)
but in more complex case like:
newtype Parser a = P (String -> [(a,String)])
parse :: Parser a -> String -> [(a,String)]
parse (P p) inp = p inp
item :: Parser Char
item = P (\inp -> case inp of
[] -> []
(x:xs) -> [(x,xs)])
instance Functor Parser where
fmap g p = P (\inp -> case p inp of
[] -> []
[(v, out)] -> [(g v, out)])
instance Applicative Parser where
pure v = P (\inp -> [(v, inp)])
pg <*> px = P (\inp -> case parse pg inp of
[] -> []
[(g, out)] -> parse (fmap g px) out)
When I do:
parse (pure (\x y -> (x,y)) <*> item <*> item) "abc"
The answer is:
[(('a','b'),"c")]
But I don't understand what exactly happens.
First:
pure (\x y -> (x,y)) => P (\inp -> [(\x y -> (x,y), inp)])
Then:
P (\inp -> [(\x y -> (x,y), inp)]) <*> item => ???
Can someone explain what's happens step by step please.
Thank you.

Subject: [Haskell-beginners] Password Program Questions
Message-ID: <[email protected]>
Content-Type: text/plain; charset="utf-8"
I am very new to Haskell and I am attempting to make a simple password program
as my first program. I have ran into a problem and I am not very sure on how to
fix it. I do not know how to make a second section for the passwords. My
guessing attempts have failed so I am asking for help.
Here is my code
main = do putStrLn "Hello, Who are you?" name <- getLine --User
Input putStrLn ("Hey " ++ name ++ ", What's the password?") pass <-
getLine if pass == "12345" then putStrLn ("Welcome") pw
else do putStrLn "That is wrong!" mainpw = do
putStrLn "What Password do you need?"
Thanks in advance, Casey :D

Remember that haskell is whitespace delimited. You probably intended
putStrLn "Welcome" to line up with pw, in its own do.
if pass == "12345"
then do
putStrLn "welcome"
pw
else do
putStrLn "wrong"
main
