That would be bad style.

I think your pseudocode is right on track.

The most obvious way to do it would be to define
data Input = ...
data Output = ...
input_values :: IO Input
calculate :: Input -> Output
ouput_values :: Output -> IO ()
then:
main = do i <- input_values
let o = calculate i
output_values o
or:
main = output_values . calculate =<< input_values
-k
