Re: [Haskell-beginners] How to check the help page of a function?

Many other languages have help pages in the command (see help() in python and R). Why haskell doesn't have such a feature? On Sat, May 16, 2015 at 6:16 PM, Henk-Jan van Tuyl wrote:

Hi, I can not find how to check the help page of a function.

For example, I want to check the help page of "head". How should I do it? (":help" doesn't seem to help.)

I generally use Hoogle: https://www.fpcomplete.com/hoogle?q=head and sometimes Hayoo: http://hayoo.fh-wedel.de/?query=head
