data Tree a = Node a [Tree a]
well here is something that builds and runs. Not sure if the monad laws apply. watch out for indents! {-# LANGUAGE InstanceSigs #-} module TreeApp where import Debug.Trace import Data.Char data Tree a = Node a [Tree a] deriving (Show) instance Functor Tree where fmap::(a -> b) -> Tree a -> Tree b fmap f (Node x l0) = Node (f x) (fmap f <$> l0) instance Applicative Tree where pure::a -> Tree a pure a = Node a [] (<*>)::Tree (a -> b) -> Tree a -> Tree b (<*>) (Node f _) tra = f <$> tra instance Monad Tree where return::a -> Tree a return a = pure a (>>=)::Tree a -> (a -> Tree b) -> Tree b (>>=) (Node x []) amb = amb x (>>=) (Node x l0) amb = Node b (m1 <$> l0) where (Node b _) = amb x m1 ta = ta >>= amb f::Char->Int f = digitToInt mb::Char->Tree Int mb c = f <$> (pure c) main::Char -> Char -> IO () main a b = print $ tc4 >>= mb {- do print ti2 print ta3 tm4 <- tc4 -} where tc1 = pure a ti2 = f <$> tc1 ta3 = (Node f []) <*> tc1 tc4 = Node b [tc1] _______________________________________________ Beginners mailing list Beginners@haskell.org http://mail.haskell.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/beginners
