This is akin to a technique that data-parallel haskell uses; they call it "chunking", but this is useful only when we were trying to evaluate elements of the list in parallel, and generally the transformation will be more like g([a,b,c]) ++ g([d,e,f]) etc. Cheers, Edward _______________________________________________ Haskell-Cafe mailing list [email protected] http://www.haskell.org/mailman/listinfo/haskell-cafe
