Roelof, Do you get any type-errors with your code? On Thu, Feb 26, 2015 at 8:32 PM, Roelof Wobben wrote:

Oke,

I send it a second time but now in plain text.

So for 3 it will be like this :

Node = Node (Node Leaf "msg1" Leaf) (Node Leaf "msg2") (Node "msg3" Leaf) ???

In my second example you can see a minimal node with a message:

node = Node Leaf "msg" Leaf

Instead of either left or right Leaf you can put another value of type MessageTree, for example:

node = Node Leaf "msg1" (Node Leaf "msg2" Leaf)

Oke,

So a leaf is a node which has no "branch"

I have made a exercise where I have to made the logMessages. Now I have to turn them into a tree

Where does the second entry goes then ?

Hi Roelof,

I think you misunderstood it.

There are two things here: types and values (value-constructors). They exist in different world, not touching each other.

In Haskell, you define a type as:

data =

You can create values as:

let varName = <Value> <Value> <Value>

You need to put <Value> of some type, not type name itself in place of those <Value>s.

So, with datatype you provided, you have two data-constructors:

Leaf

and

Node <val> <val> <val>

You can create a leaf:

let leaf = Leav

or a node:

let node = Node Leaf "msg" Leaf

You can see that Node is a data-constructor that takes 3 values, not type-names as it's parameters.

Hope this helps.

Hello,

Suppose we have this definition of a tree :

data MessageTree = Leaf | Node MessageTree LogMessage MessageTree deriving (Show, Eq)

let Message = LogMessage "E 1 this is a test error" let Message = LogMessage "e 2 this is the second test error "

As I understand it right I can make the first entry like this : first_entry = Node Messagetree Message Messagetree

And the second one like this second_entry = Node Message Messagetree Message2 Messagetree ??

Hello, Im looking for goofd online software to make the diagrams. As soon as I find it . I will publish them on the ML. Roelof Joel Neely schreef op 1-3-2015 om 14:45:

Roelof,

Perhaps it would help for you to draw diagrams for the cases you're working. If a leaf has nothing below it, and a node always has exactly three things below it (the left child, the message, and the right child), what would your picture look like for 1, 2, and 3 nodes? And how would you write out constructor expressions that match those shapes?

Hope that helps, -jn-

Roelof, please consider changing your mail client to send *both* HTML and plain-text emails! With your current setting you send *only* HTML sometimes and it results in a slightly broken list archive, see [1] for an example of the result. To boot, you also make it more difficult for those of us who use plain-text mail clients to benefit from the diskussions you participate in. /M [1]: https://mail.haskell.org/pipermail/beginners/2015-February/014808.html On Thu, Feb 26, 2015 at 03:01:22PM +0100, Roelof Wobben wrote:
