Hello Brent, I just have written a quick sort program. There is nothing more in the code than that I have shown. What is it about the main function? What do I need to do in the main function? I do not get any errors. And I get the expected output. The only thing that I am stuck at is that I do not get the ".prof" file which will give me the profile details of the code. Also it would be great if you could through a light on whether there is any other method to profile a code in Haskell? Regards, Sayali. -----Original Message----- From: beginners-bounces@haskell.org [mailto:beginners-bounces@haskell.org] On Behalf Of Brent Yorgey Sent: Saturday, November 15, 2008 2:24 AM To: beginners@haskell.org Subject: Re: [Haskell-beginners] Profiling haskell code
quicksort [ ] = [ ]
quicksort (x : xs) = quicksort larger ++ [x ] ++ quicksort smaller
where
smaller = [a | a <- xs, a <= x ]
larger = [b | b <- xs, b > x ]
When I compile the code with the following command :
$ ghc --make Project.hs -prof -auto-all
Then I tested it with the following command :
$ Project +RTS -p
It generates the .hi and the .o file but I cannot get the .prof file.
Please let me know if any of the steps is missing or where could I
check
my profiling info.
Hi Sayali, Is the code shown above *everything* in your Project.hs file? You will also need a main function for it to actually do anything. If there is more to your Project.hs file that you have not shown, could you send the complete version? Do you get any errors? Does Project produce the output that you expect? -Brent _______________________________________________ Beginners mailing list Beginners@haskell.org http://www.haskell.org/mailman/listinfo/beginners
