I can apreciate that the program works when the first guard condition is met (faster Bob Joe). I am not sure why it fails on the second case (faster Bob Joe)
Your `fact` function is the one that is partial
fact Buffalo Bob = True fact Pig Joe = True fact Slug Steve = True -- what if all those patterns fail?
You should add a line to handle "every other case", like
fact Buffalo Bob = True fact Pig Joe = True fact Slug Steve = True fact _ _ = False
Does that help? _______________________________________________ Beginners mailing list Beginners@haskell.org http://mail.haskell.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/beginners
