Mmmm, it took me a while to really find laziness useful, and that was normally to let me create complex things that were mutually dependent on each other, releasing me from some housekeeping - some calculation in one would help the other creep along, and vice versa. I'm afraid no examples come easily to mind, though. BTW, I wonder if it's too much difficulty to show off STM. -- Mark _______________________________________________ Haskell-Cafe mailing list Haskell-Cafe@haskell.org http://www.haskell.org/mailman/listinfo/haskell-cafe
