The user meant unboxed tuples, not a literal string. Try not to give the
questioner the benefit of the doubt and search for a better answer than,
"there's quotes, it must be a string rather than them trying to contain the
syntax they want to express!"
Anyway, Haskell isn't search hostile, Google is Haskell hostile. You can

Kinds, reference types, and value types in Haskell. Also, Alan Watts.
Double is a reference type of Kind *
Double# is an unboxed value type of Kind #
Types in Haskell default to *. This is what you want usually. Value types
are an after-the-fact optimization that shouldn't be done without the

But yeah, not a string.

What's "(# #)"?
Haskell is search-hostile. Can you provide some context? It looks like ordinary string "(# #)" :: String or "(# #)" :: [Char] Emanuel _______________________________________________
