Of course, the line
unzip (a,b):ps
illustrates a typical first year student error --- it should be:
unzip ((a,b):ps)
I could blame my mailer for not having a Haskell parser or even the late
summer heat but instead I'll sit here in the corner and write out a 100
times:
``Function application is denoted by juxtaposition, left associative and
has highr precedence than anything else''
Sorry to spoil people's bandwidth but I thought I should point out this
error.
