Yeah, readInt has a more useful type than atoi() in most circumstances so obviously it's a default which somehow disqualify this function... (I wasn't aware that this function was only useful in the shoutout context, I should probably scrap it from my other programs now) I think we should write all the entries in Haskell98 and disable any optimisation in GHC too, that would gives us a much fairer vision of Haskell current performances. -- Jedaï _______________________________________________ Haskell-Cafe mailing list Haskell-Cafe@haskell.org http://www.haskell.org/mailman/listinfo/haskell-cafe
