Hello,

I've a small question about the function const. I'm a bit of confused about how 
it binds. Let me take the following expression as example:

const id 1 2

If I execute this expression, I will get as answer 2 with Helium. Now is my 
question, why doesn't it give me 1 as the answer? Because the type of id would 
be: a -> a. So first it would execute id 1 in my opinion. That gives us 1. And 
after executing const 1 2 it should give us 1.

Can somebody explain to me why it does not bind as I expect? (I know I can do: 
const (id 1) 2 to get what I want)

Thank you for your answers.
