Is it a convention that Haskell array code is done using indices starting at 1? I get the impression from the tutorials I've been looking at.

mbw: There's no convention -- Ix lets you choose whatever bounds make the most sense for your application.
Cale 2017-03-04 21:03:40
(if you want to start an array at 137, you can do that)
Cale 2017-03-04 21:04:07
0 would usually be preferred, all else being equal though

Trying a State Monad to store a global array.

storearray "value-table" ( newArray (512,512) 0 ) has a problem.
spatial 2017-03-04 21:14:12
I guess the pattern will work if I remove the errors.

Cale: Ok, that's good to know.

mbw: these days https://hackage.haskell.org/package/vector is arguably the most common implementation of arrays and it uses 0 based indices

hi, how can I reference a type of the sourrounding environment? If I have "f :: (Monad m) => m (); f = g; where g :: m ()...) I get an error that the the monad of g m1 can't be matched with the one of f.
