Tashdid, does anyone know what happened to HCAR? or HWN? I guess the May ;) 2006 edition of HCAR will appear soon. I'm not sure about what happened to HWN the last couple of weeks, though, but I think that Donald is just quite busy these days. Regards, Stefan

[Haskell-cafe] Newbie: safe program termination in Windows

Hi, I have a program that handle cached data. I don´t find the way to store the data when the program is killed by other program. There is nothing similar to signal in the Windows implementation and no exception appears to trigger when the program is killed by a service handler or by the Task

[Haskell-cafe] Learning C after Haskell

Ok, so I'm doing things somewhat backward. I've been using Haskell for a while now, whenever I get a chance to. But in order to become more involved in high-performance computing projects at my work, I need to learn C. I've heard a lot of people say that experience in Haskell can improve one's

[Haskell-cafe] Separate a string into a list of strings

Hi all, I want to write a function to separate a string into a list of strings separated by commas. Example: separate :: String - [String] separate Haskell, Haskell, and Haskell = [Haskell, Haskell, and Haskell] If anyone has some ideas, please share with me. Thanks. S.

Off the top of my head: separate :: String - [String] separate [] = [] separate s = case break (',' ==) s of (s,[]) - [s] (s,',':s') - s : separate s' _ - error how did we get here? There is at least one cunning rewriting with foldl, I think, but I think this version is clearer. /g

Re: [Haskell-cafe] Learning C after Haskell

Thanks, Minh. So are things like recursion and memory sharing typically out the window? Also, I don't see how thinking about type classes will help, without the benefits of polymorphism. -Chad-- Forwarded message --From: minh thu [EMAIL PROTECTED]Date: Jun 12, 2006 12:23 PM

Re: [Haskell-cafe] Learning C after Haskell

Thanks, Minh. So are things like recursion and memory sharing typically out the window? Recursion works in C, but every function call pushes stack, so recursive depth is limited by RAM (compare to tail call optimization in many functional programming languages where the stack frame is reused if

Funny. I have a module called Useful.hs with some of these same sorts of functions. (coming from Python where I used .split(',') and .replace('\r', '') and such a lot): -- module Useful where import List ( intersperse, tails ) import Numeric ( readHex ) hex2num :: (Num a) =
