Re: I need some help

  However the user of the program give some argument then program is
  starting. And I want to use this arguments for example at the end of the
  program. What will I do.

 Good question. I've had a bad time with this, some in this list proably got
 tired of me saying the same thing over and over again... those of you might
 want to skip the rest of my mail :-)

huh? what is this line doing here.. I thought I had cut/pasted it below, 
but instead I copy/pasted it (then changed it). Most of the is pretty 
readble, I just complain about stuff in the last part of the e-mail :-)

Is there a name for this structure?

2002-03-26 Thread Joe English


Not really a Haskell question, but someone here might know the answer...

Suppose you have two morphisms f : A - B and g : B - A
such that neither (f . g) nor (g . f) is the identity,
but satisfying (f . g . f) = f.   Is there a conventional name
for this?  Alternately, same question, but f and g are functors
and A and B categories.

In some cases (g . f . g) is also equal to g; is there a name
for this as well?

I find myself running into pairs of functions with this property
over and over again, and am looking for a short way to describe
the property...

Thanks,

Is it equivalent to saying that (f . g) is the identity on the range
of f?  That's shorter, though still not a snappy single word term.
