Hi Creighton, This means that the interpreter have detected that your program run into infinite loop. There are many possibilities but one of them (the most often for me) is to have something like:
let x = f x because of the lazy evaluation this is possible but leads to infinite loop. It is different from: x := f x that you usually do in imperative languages. Sometimes I also forget to give a new name for x and it results in this kind of infinite loop.

What is GHC detecting when it emits that warning? > > Thanks, > Creighton > _______________________________________________ > Glasgow-haskell-users mailing list > Glasgow-haskell-users@haskell.org > http://www.haskell.org/mailman/listinfo/glasgow-haskell-users > _______________________________________________ Glasgow-haskell-users mailing list Glasgow-haskell-users@haskell.org http://www.haskell.org/mailman/listinfo/glasgow-haskell-users
