Hi Mateusz,
I don't think my post was out of order at all and I don't understand
why it sparked such an... energetic response - that wasn't my intent
at all.
A friendly response might contain the things you told John, but it could
also be a bit more empathic, otherwise its easy to perceive

Hi,
I have to write a function which returns a list of all pairs (x,y) where x,
y ∈ N AND:
– x is the product of two natural numbers (x = a · b, where a, b ∈ N) AND
– x is really bigger than 5 but really smaller than 500, AND
– y is a squer number (y = c² where c ∈ N) NOT greater than 1000,
For a first sight, you cannot use x - [0..]*[0..] to mean 'all possible
pairs x = a*b'.
You would need to do something like
[ (a*b, y) | a - [0..], b - [0..], a*b 5, a*b 500, and the rest of
things ]

Hi,

You can't write
[1..] * [1..]
Since Haskell's lists aren't Nums
Instead you'd want to write something like
a-[1..], b-[1..], and then multiply them together manually.
But this still doesn't really work since it'll loop forever without finding
any solutions. Haskell's list comprehensions
thanks to both!
listPairs = [(a*b, y) | a - [0..], b - [0..], (a*b) 5, (a*b) 500,
(y*y) 1001, mod y x == 0]
Now I have it as you said, however the compiler complains about all y and x
and says they are NOT in scope.
Why is it so? I can't see any problem with that...

Well you've deleted the portion of the code referring to x and y.
listPairs = [(a*b, y) | y - [0..], a - [0..], b - [0..], (a*b) 5,
(a*b) 500, (y*y) 1001, mod y (a*b) == 0]
This will still never terminate however.

You can always write it like this:
listPairs = [ (x,y) | x - [6 .. 499] , y - [0 .. 1000] , isProduct x ,
isSqrt y , mod y x == 0 ]
So you have the bounds for x and y, and then the conditions. You then need
to define isProduct and isSqrt with types
isProduct :: Int - Bool
isSqrt :: Int - Bool
Well, definitely, isSqrt should be called isSquare.

Isn't the product check actually redundant? re-reading the requirements we
could just define a = 1 and b = x. Maybe I'm misunderstanding though.

I'm not sure. As I understand the requirement, the squer of y should not be
greater than 1000.
But anyway, without this condition
1. Does the order of conditions affect the result at all?
Conditions, I don't believe so, the ordering/placement of bindings though
can effect the results a great deal.
When I say bindings, I mean something that involves a -
2. The , means AND or , right? So how do you write OR || instead?
is'nt it possible, to write it in one line without any nested functions in
WHERE?
If it's possible I'd prefer that...
any idea?
Thanks

thanks for your tips.
As I said, I'm at the very beginning of Haskell. I try it to understand as
much as I can, however the topic is very new to me. Sorry about my silly
questions...
You said, their is a mailing list for beginner? Could you please tell me I
get to that?
Thanks
