Hello, 
I get this error when I try to derive an instance of the Show typeclass:
Abc.hs:21:60:    Couldn't match expected type `Vector' with actual type 
`[Point]'    In the first argument of `show'', namely `xs'    In the second 
argument of `(++)', namely `show' xs'    In the second argument of `(++)', 
namely `", " ++ show' xs'Failed, modules loaded: none.
Here's the faulty code:
newtype Point = Point Intinstance Show Point where   show (Point a) = [chr $ a 
+ 48]   data Vector = Vector [Point]instance Show Vector where   show (Vector 
ys) =      let show' (Vector [z])     = show z          show' (Vector (x:xs))  
= show x ++ ", " ++ show' xs          show' (Vector [])      = []      in  "(" 
++ show' ys ++ ")"
What I'm trying to do, is to print out a vector like "Vector [Point 1, Point 2, 
Point 3]" as "(1, 2, 3)".My question is: what should I change in order to make 
it work?
Best regards,
William
