Without going through your derivation completely, the problem is almost
certainly polymorphic recursion. Vector is a nested datatype---its
definition

My motivation in using this type was to see if, for example, I could
restrict addition of a vector to another vector to vectors of the same
length. This would be helpful in the crypto library where I end up having to
either define new length Words all the time or using

Brandon,
I get the error below without the type signature. My confusion was thinking
I needed rank-2 types. In fact I only need polymorphic recursion. Ross
Paterson's suggestion fixes the problem. I stole Even and Odd from Chris
Okasaki's paper
Can anyone tell me why the following doesn't work (and what I have to do to

to be used both at a and (a,b).

This will never work. A function

Change the signature to

Frank explained why the type you gave wouldn't work. I would
