Hello
You may find this paper useful

It should give you the general feeling of how things are actually executed.
It's quite old, some things in GHC have changed, but the overall scheme,
I believe, is the same. The competent people will correct me, if I'm wrong.

Hi
(take 4 . map (>0)) (f s t)
where
s = 2 : t
t = 3 : s
f = zipWith (-)
What would be the order of evaluation for the above code? How would I
illustrate the evaluation step-by-step?
I'm guessing that the code necessitates lazy evaluation and as such it
starts with take then it applies f which in turn applies s and t and
zipWith until the first element satisfies the predicate in map and This
is repeated 4 times
What does the list think?
Many thanks,
Paul
P.S. I'm not done with induction. I'm just letting it rst for a bit.
