Someone mentioned the "Blow your mind" page.
One example there really caught my attention.
"1234567" => ("1357","246")
foldr (\a ~(x,y) -> (a:y,x)) ([],[])
I've known about lazy match since an early version of the Haskell
report, but have never actually used it. Last night, looking at
that example, the lights went on and I finally grokked why it's
there and understood when/why I might use it myself.
Oh, I knew perfectly well what it does. It just never made itself
at home in my head.
I'd like to recommend this example for some sort of prize, therefore.
