Prelude> 1000000000 `mod` 256
0
So [1..1000000000] == [1..0].
Cheers,

Hello everyone,
I was playing with Word8 and list comprehensions and the following examples came up. I have to admit the behavior looks quite strange because it does not seem to be consistent. Can someone shed some light on reason behind some of these outputs?
By the way, I have abbreviated some outputs with ellipsis ...
[1..10] :: [Word8] [1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10]
[1..100] :: [Word8] [1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10,...,100]
[1..1000] :: [Word8] [1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10,...,232]
[1..10000] :: [Word8] [1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10,11,12,13,14,15,16]
[1..100000] :: [Word8] [1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10,...,160]
[1..1000000] :: [Word8] [1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10,...,64]
[1..10000000] :: [Word8] [1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10,...,128]
[1..100000000] :: [Word8] []
[1..1000000000] :: [Word8] []
Thank you, Jose
