Variables ?

[Tim Bishop]

I am relatively new to Haskell, and I'm using Hugs 1.4.

My my source of programming is Java, with the odd bit of basic thrown in for
good measure.

Now one of the first things I notice about Haskell is that there don't seem
to be variables in the same sense that there are in other programming
languages. I want to be able to store a value, or a set of values for use
through-out various functions.

Any suggestions ?

Thanks.
