Just to follow those sentiments, the version I knocked out quickly
looked like:
(It's not quite the same as the original function, I think I'm lacking a
map (map (take 8)) on the first line).
showSystems :: Show a => [[a]] -> String
showSystems = unlines . zipWith showSystem [1..]
where
showSystem n as = "Eq" ++ (show n) ++ ": " ++ sum ++ " = " ++ val
where
sum = concat . intersperse " + " . zipWith showNum [1..] $ (init as)
val = show . last $ as
showNum n a = show a ++ " x" ++ show n
I'm puzzled - do we have 2 seperate where clauses?
Pointsfree and explicit lambda notation I find can be very concise in
places, but make it quite hard to reuse or refactor code later - if you
can't read it, make a function/variable with a useful name so you can
later.
Mmm, so just like every other programming language. Theoretically you
could write a ten thousand line Pascal program on 1 line - but please
don't! Hehe.
