"2345 + 6767" shoudl give IntAdd (2345) (6767)
"2345" should give IntT 2345
You need to write a parser. There are a lot of libraries that will
help you write a parser. One library that is often used for writing
parsers in Haskell is called Parsec [1]. There's good documentation on
that site on how to use it. Parsec is already included in you
distribution. Good luck!
