Hi, Thanks to Miguel for pointing out my silly error. So at least my understanding of tail recursion is correct :) So then the question becomes: what *is* the best way to write this function? One version I can think of is
> ecount :: [Tree] -> Integer -> Integer > ecount [] acc = acc > ecount (Leaf _ : ts) acc = ecount ts $! (acc + 1) > ecount (Branch t1 t2 : ts) acc = ecount (t1 : t2 : ts) acc which essentially maintains an explicit stack and runs on all trees. Are there better ways to do this? Thanks again and sorry for my mistake, Edsko _______________________________________________ Haskell-Cafe mailing list Haskell-Cafe@haskell.org http://www.haskell.org/mailman/listinfo/haskell-cafe
