What is the greatest liftA* ?
glguy 2017-01-26 05:55:58
zipper: You can use tab-completion in GHCi to answer that
zipper 2017-01-26 05:56:09
glguy: Oh
zipper 2017-01-26 05:56:22
Got it :)

Random thought
taliriktug 2017-01-26 05:56:52
Hi! Question: should ":info (:)" really display two identical strings? I tried to find it in ghc sources, but failed.
taliriktug 2017-01-26 05:57:03
> :info (:)

taliriktug 2017-01-26 05:57:12
oh, ok
wz1000 2017-01-26 05:57:15
zipper: IIRC, there are more liftMs than liftAs
merijn 2017-01-26 05:57:20
taliriktug: That's an...odd issue
merijn 2017-01-26 05:57:29
taliriktug: I get the same here, but I have no clue why
glguy 2017-01-26 05:57:54
What's the specific issue?
taliriktug 2017-01-26 05:58:11
merijn: Can it be some bug with parsing documentation or something (has no idea where ghci takes info)
merijn 2017-01-26 05:58:19
taliriktug: No idea, tbh
merijn 2017-01-26 05:58:29
glguy: ":i (:)" prints the same text twice
merijn 2017-01-26 05:58:36
7.10.1 for me
zipper 2017-01-26 05:58:36
I don't get two identical strings
lpaste 2017-01-26 05:58:43
glguy pasted ":info (:)" at http://lpaste.net/8597764141286948864
taliriktug 2017-01-26 05:58:58
I have 7.10.3
wz1000 2017-01-26 05:59:09
merijn taliriktug: I only get it once with 8.0.1
zipper 2017-01-26 05:59:21
glguy: I don't see two strings there
lpaste 2017-01-26 05:59:26
merijn pasted "Double output" at http://lpaste.net/8842925770805346304
merijn 2017-01-26 05:59:34
Maybe it's fixed in GHC 8?
glguy 2017-01-26 05:59:39
Probably just one of the many bugs fixed since that version
taliriktug 2017-01-26 05:59:41
yeah, probably
merijn 2017-01-26 05:59:52
Doesn't seem like a critical problem, imo :p
zipper 2017-01-26 06:00:31
merijn: Haskellers love to nitpick!
merijn 2017-01-26 06:01:10
to be fair, it is odd
discodiddler 2017-01-26 06:01:24
today I had to edit some elixir code, and realised I didn't know the return type of a function, and missed haskell again :(
taliriktug 2017-01-26 06:01:25
actually it was discovered in a course on Haskell basics
taliriktug 2017-01-26 06:01:47
we were told about (:) and someone tried to look at the info
taliriktug 2017-01-26 06:02:32
I replied that it is fixed. Thanks =)
zipper 2017-01-26 06:03:25
discodiddler: I always add type annotations in my clj(s) code lol
zipper 2017-01-26 06:03:43
taliriktug: :)
discodiddler 2017-01-26 06:04:16
zipper: problem with that is you can't know they're actually true
wz1000 2017-01-26 06:04:20
That reminds me of one of the reasons I hate ghci
wz1000 2017-01-26 06:04:26
:i doesn't show documentation
Tuplanolla 2017-01-26 06:04:56
We're still lacking colors and integrated documentation, which is a shame.
zipper 2017-01-26 06:06:24
discodiddler: True
zipper 2017-01-26 06:06:48
Plus people always delete them because they make no sense to them or they are well useful only to me
