Talk:Learn Haskell in 10 minutes
In Learn_Haskell_in_10_minutes#Function_definitions, the definition of main
is not a function, but rather an IO definition. Haskell cleanly separates the notion of "function" from "definition". I suggest renaming this section just "Definitions" and tweaking the explanation. Conal 13:17, 18 July 2007 (UTC)
- Yes - I agree with Conal and have done a start, albeit without renaming the section to definitions.--BrettGiles 17:54, 22 July 2007 (UTC)
Don't you think referencing "Teach Yourself Programming in Ten Years" would be useful here? --vvv 15:12, 2 August 2007 (UTC)
What is the syntax for comments in Haskell code?
- -- introduces a single line comment
- {- is a nested comment -} dons 05:07, 5 September 2008 (UTC)
I think it would be useful to mention that constants (including functions) can be defined in GHCi using let
. You do not need to write a module for that purpose. Data types or type classes however cannot be defined. Lemming 09:16, 11 June 2009 (UTC)
