My apologies, the 2nd function should be:
scoreRule_ r zs = Z.foldlz' (scoreElem r) (0, 0) zs where scoreElem r s@(nCorrect, nIncorrect) z = case ruleApplication r z of Just tag -> if tag == correct then let nCorrect = nCorrect + 1 in
This is a cyclic definition. The nCorrect on the right hand side is not the nCorrect from the function parameter but the nCorrect from the left hand side of the definition, so you have a nonterminating value here. You need to introduce a new name, let newCorrect = nCorrect + 1 in newCorrect `seq` (newCorrect, nIncorrect) (since nIncorrect isn't changed, we don't need to use seq on that).
nCorrect `seq` nIncorrect `seq` (nCorrect, nIncorrect) else let nIncorrect = nIncorrect + 1 in
Same problem here.
nCorrect `seq` nIncorrect `seq` (nCorrect, nIncorrect) Nothing -> s where (correct, _) = Z.cursor z

Hello,
After trying the suggestions, I still cannot execute the code. I have tried:
scoreRule_ r zs = Z.foldlz' (scoreElem r) (0, 0) zs where scoreElem r !s@(!nCorrect, !nIncorrect) z = case ruleApplication r z of Just tag -> if tag == correct then (nCorrect+1, nIncorrect) else (nCorrect, nIncorrect + 1) Nothing -> s where (correct, _) = Z.cursor z
That should run, what's the problem here? Perhaps the bangs should be placed s@(!(InCorrect, !nIncorrect)), I'm not sure how ghc treats bang patterns exactly atm.
and
scoreRule_ r zs = Z.foldlz' (scoreElem r) (0, 0) zs nIncorrect) where (correct, _) = Z.cursor z nCorrect = nCorrect + 1 nIncorrect = nIncorrect + 1
Again cyclic definitions.
where scoreElem r s@(nCorrect, nIncorrect) z = case ruleApplication r z of Just tag -> if tag == correct then let nCorrect = nCorrect + 1 in nCorrect `seq` nIncorrect `seq` (nCorrect, nIncorrect) else let nIncorrect = nIncorrect + 1 in nCorrect `seq` nIncorrect `seq` (nCorrect, nIncorrect) Nothing -> s where (correct, _) = Z.cursor z
Here too.
In an attempt to figure out the problem I also tried:
scoreRule_ r zs = Z.foldlz' (scoreElem r) (0, 0) zs where scoreElem r !s@(!nCorrect, !nIncorrect) z = (nCorrect, nIncorrect) where (correct, _) = Z.cursor z nCorrect = nCorrect + 1 nIncorrect = nIncorrect + 1
Strangely enough GHC complains that correct, nCorrect and nIncorrect are not used.
With -Wall or -fwarn-name-shadowing it should also complain about the shadowing of nCorrect and nIncorrect.
Why is this so for nCorrect and nIncorrect? Why won't the above also execute in a strict manner?
Does anyone have any ideas why I still get stack-overflow?
TIA, Hugo F.
