How can I do something to each element of a list, but only modify one element at at time, so the result is a list of lists, where each sublist is the original list with one element altered.
Something like
[..]
λ> each (*10) [1..3] [[10,2,3],[1,20,3],[1,2,30]]
You could make use of the 'inits' and 'tails' functions from Data.List: λ: inits [1..3] [[],[1],[1,2],[1,2,3]] λ: tails [1..3] [[1,2,3],[2,3],[3],[]] Using this, you could build a little list comprehension which takes every head and every tail and produces a list in which the two are concatenated, except that the first element of the tail has some function applied to it: λ: let each f xs = [i ++ f t:ts | (i, t:ts) <- zip (inits xs) (tails xs)] λ: :t each each :: (a -> a) -> [a] -> [[a]] λ: each (*10) [1..3] [[10,2,3],[1,20,3],[1,2,30]] -- Frerich Raabe - raabe@froglogic.com www.froglogic.com - Multi-Platform GUI Testing
