Re: [Haskell-cafe] Is there a way to find out the type inferred for a local function inside another function? :)

AFAIK there is no way to do that, thouhg scion[1] may offer it.

Personally I develop more complex local functions at the top-level, and once I'm happy with it I perform some re-factoring and move it in.

I would not write large local functions at all. I would leave them top-level but do not export them. This also allows to test them from GHCi.

The downside to this is when you want to use the worker/wrapper transform in order to capture some local variables for a recursive function, instead of passing them through the recursion. -- Live well, ~wren
