Yes, I agree with both of you. But that is if I want to use Haskell as a
development tool. The target in learning by reinventing the wheel is the
ability to think declaratively when solving problems and to improve an
already found solution. For instance, Data.List module provides permutations

That's a standard Unix limitation. A child process is forked with one
thread, so if the parent has multiple threads running, it's overwhelmingly
Hi,
Interesting: my program is compiled with -threaded, and when I run it
with +RTS -N I get:
: forking not supported with +RTS -N greater than 1
This is probably about forkProcess rather than forkIO/forkOS, but why

I have problems with upgrading some already working code for GHC 6.12.
The following code:

Bulat,
All I need is to know how many cores I have. In my program, I can run
some actions in parallel, and knowing the number of cores helps set
the maximum number of parallel processes. These processes are in fact
external programs (CPU-intensive but not memory intensive, so number
of cores is ma

With 6.12.1 and newer, no "-N" argument implies 1 core, "-N*k*"
implies *k* co
Hi,
As a followup to the discussion [1] about the portable way to find the
number of CPUs/cores: how is the default value of numCapabilities [2]
set when +RTS -N is not on the command line?
Does GHC runtime figure out the number of cores itself, or it is by
default 1 unless specified on the comma
I agree with the answer that Yitz gave, but let me frame it in a bit of context:
Many people's idea of a programming language is Python, and within 12 minutes
of settling in to a new language they're going to wonder how to match a regular
expression to a string, or download a web page, and they'

For most people, the recommended approach is to install
the Haskell Platform. This is not a minimal setup - it includes

The version I have checked out is 6.12 and that's why I haven't seen

I notice that many of the installed libs aren't required for learning
Haskell. What libs are required so I can get the bare minimum version of

delete the folders and edit package.conf?
