[Haskell-cafe] Re: Simple but interesting (for me) problem

[michael rice]

Thanks everyone,

Hmm...I hadn't thought about it that way, but w/r/t Haskell you're absolutely right.

People have said that Haskell is good to learn because it makes one think differently about programming, and they're right.

I think its more in the spirit of things things to have a function that produces an infinite list of values.
