hlint gives me a parse error on a clause using DoIfThenElse, even if I have the language pragma. I don't see any hlint options to get around that, are there any?
Is it considered good style to write code like this?
if "" == results then return True else return False
The obvious way rewrite below just seems clunky to me (though I can see how others might prefer it to the code above).
return $ if "" == results then True else False
You've just pressed one of my language-independent style hot
buttons. Why on earth are you using an if/then/else here? What's wrong
with the straightforward:
return "" == results
The expression results in a boolean, and it's even the one you want to
return. So why not return it?
