If you're bored... can you come up with a solution to this?
Try using floatToDigits:
http://haskell.org/ghc/docs/latest/html/libraries/base/Numeric.html#v%3AfloatToDigits
"floatToDigits takes a base and a non-negative RealFloat number, and
returns a list of digits and an exponent."
I think you also need floatRadix and floatDigits.
Note that the challenge asks for the "internal" bitmap representation of
an IEEE double-precision integer - not the mathematical binary
expansion. (In particular, things like Infinity and NaN have special bit
sequences.)
Did I mention that this is a silly challange yet?
