Well, for your example frustration, the leading comma style would sort your problem nicely. As for the particulars… hmm, not sure. I use leading commas for both, so I never really noticed. It may be that since modules simply expose functions to other programs, the form is syntactically

Hi Anthony. What you've got there is a list comprehension. I'll try to break down what it says for you. The basic structure of a list comprehension is function arguments = [ description of the list ] In this function, the argument 'xs' is a Haskell idiom. We use 'xs' to mean a list of x's.
