Hi Alistair, | I've just debugged a program that used a case expression, but | where I was trying to match on constants rather than literals. | Here's a contrived example: | | > module Main where | > one = 1 | > two = 2 | > | > test n = | > case n of | > one -> "one" | > two -> "two" | > _ -> "three" | > | > main = putStrLn (test 2)
There's a 1992 tech report by Aitken and Reppy that provides a proposal for doing this kind of thing (and a bit more) in the context of SML: ftp://ftp.research.bell-labs.com/dist/smlnj/papers/92-tr-aitken.ps All the best, Mark _______________________________________________ Haskell-Cafe mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.haskell.org/mailman/listinfo/haskell-cafe
