Hi again, I have tried to play around with MVar today, but still... I did not see how to synchronize MVar without the help of forkIO, and then explicitly call yield :: IO (). But then, if I use forkIO I will create "daemon threads" that will cause my program to terminates immediately (back to the original problem).
I attached the source code to this email. ps: If you can tell the depth of my understanding of concurrent Haskell from my code, please do not hesitate to evaluate it (Eg. am I using MVar correctly? Any better method? etc.), since I am really new to concurrent Haskell. Thanks. Again, thank you for the help.
