[Haskell-cafe] Missing Symbol (2)

2007-09-18 Thread PR Stanley
Hi Here's another one: f [] = v f (x:xs) = x . f xs The "." is supposed to denote a generic operator - f [] maps to some value v and applied to non-empty list applies head to ? operator. Thanks, Paul ___ Haskell-Cafe mailing list Haskell-Cafe@haskell.

Paul, The Hutton book has gotten great reviews, but pouring over a faulty OCRd version can only be counterproductive. I highly recommend Yet Another Haskell Tutorial[1]. After that you can check out all the other wonderful online resources (starting here [2]). At that point a few OCR errors won't

The book is very well written. I did try to follow the wikibook thingummajig but found the English a bit trying. Cheers Paul t 07:43 19/09/2007, you wrote: Paul, The Hutton book has gotten great reviews, but pouring over a faulty OCRd version can only be counterproductive. I highly recommend Ye

Joel YAHT is full of symbols which cannot be rendered by the Adobe text extractor. I appreciate your kind advice but you must also bear in mind that I am using the Hutton book for a reason. Did you not think it'd occurred to me also that there were other tutorials out there? Sincerely, Paul At

This looks like foldr, specifically: f = foldr (.) v so really, there's no way of telling what the operator could be, other than that: (.) :: a -> b -> b where f :: [a] -> b v :: b BTW, I find that most of your emails are in a very large font size. Do other people notice this? It's not very nice

It's probably \oplus then. The font size according to my trusty screen reader is 11 point which is not particularly large. Still, if anybody else finds it annoying I'll reduce it to 9pt. Paul At 13:21 19/09/2007, you wrote: This looks like foldr, specifically: f = foldr (.) v so really, ther

Hi Paul, Sorry that my suggestion wasn't so practicable. On the other hand, I see that the YAHT tex source is available on darcs.haskell.org/yaht. Maybe we can do something about those unextractable symbols. Anyone know more about this? It really is a great resource for beginners. -- Joel On 9
