well I love design patterns, it's just that in Haskell-land they are called higher-order functions, or polymorphic functions, etc. I think you need `design pattern' as a special concept only if you can't express it in the language itself (that is, if all your functions are first order, if you can't write polymorphic code, or can't typecheck it properly, etc.) as it happens for most of the mainstream languages ... -- -- Johannes Waldmann ---- http://www.informatik.uni-leipzig.de/~joe/ -- -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] -- phone/fax (+49) 341 9732 204/207 -- _______________________________________________ Haskell mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.haskell.org/mailman/listinfo/haskell
