Hi Angus,
Try placing $ in place of ???. Type of filter is (a->Bool) -> [a] ->
[a]. $ is of type (a->b) -> a -> b but it's low priority so left and right
hand side is calculated before function application.
Thanks

I am getting a list of lists from chop9. I want to somehow filter each element in the list. How do I do that.
I have encoded binary data eg [1,1,0,0,1,0] etc
Each 9th bit is a parity bit which is checked using this function:
type Bit = Int
paritychecker :: [Bit] -> Bool paritychecker xs | length xs == 9 && ((sum (init xs)) `mod` 2) == (last xs) = True | otherwise = False
In the stream (the list) I use chop to retrieve each block of 9 bits as in:
chop9 :: [Bit] -> [[Bit]] chop9 [] = [] chop9 bits = take 8 bits : chop9 (drop 8 bits)
I have been playing with this sort of thing: filter paritychecker ??? chop9 [1,0,0,0,1,1,1,0,0,...]
But doesn't work.
I want to end up with all the 9 bit chunks which pass the filter. So my end type should be [[Bit]]
paritychecker requires a list - eg [Bit] . So I want to run paritychecker on each element returned from chop9. How do I do that?
Example encoded data stream:
[1,0,0,0,1,1,1,0,0,1,1,1,0,1,1,1,0,0,1,0,1,0,0,1,1,0,0,0,1,0,0,1,1,1,0,0,0,0,1,0,1,1,1,0,0,1,0,0,1,1,1,1,0,1]
