Suppose there is a data definition in Haskell:
data MyType = MyType { date     :: Double,
                   weight       :: Double,
                  height        :: Double
                } deriving (Eq, Ord, Show)

Is it possible to check if the field height, for example, is filled
in(defined)? Can we give default values in Haskell?

Many thanks and sorry fro so sily questions. Vladimir

You could make date, weight, and height "Maybe Double"s, then
isDefined = isJust and isNull = isNothing.
