Hello,
I get this error when I try to derive an instance of the Show typeclass:
Abc.hs:21:60: Couldn't match expected type `Vector' with actual type
`[Point]' In the first argument of `show'', namely `xs' In the second
argument of `(++)', namely `show' xs' In the second argument of `(++)',
namely `", " ++ show' xs'Failed, modules loaded: none.
Here's the faulty code:
newtype Point = Point Intinstance Show Point where show (Point a) = [chr $ a
+ 48] data Vector = Vector [Point]instance Show Vector where show (Vector
ys) = let show' (Vector [z]) = show z show' (Vector (x:xs))
= show x ++ ", " ++ show' xs show' (Vector []) = [] in "("
++ show' ys ++ ")"
What I'm trying to do, is to print out a vector like "Vector [Point 1, Point 2,
Point 3]" as "(1, 2, 3)".My question is: what should I change in order to make
it work?
Best regards,
William _______________________________________________
