Re: [Haskell-cafe] Usage of . and $

Which is the longer way of saying you don't need to count to make sure you closed all the brackets you opened! ;-)

< Dougal Stanton 1) Emacs does the counting for me 2) parens don't surprise me if I happen to use rank-2 types. i was bit enough times when learning why $ and runST don't like each other that I've grown averse of $. I also like thinking of building a composite function instead of sequencing applications--this has helped me see patterns in other places like writing monad transformer instances and other stuff, so maybe it's a good thing. My 2 cents.
