Then she may have to learn it from someone else, but there are
resources out there. The first thing that came up for me in a
web search:
http://www.willamette.edu/~fruehr/haskell/lectures/tutorial4.html
Haskell functions of several arguments are actually "curried",
i.e., they are higher-order functions of successive arguments
> :t take
take :: Int -> [a] -> [a]
> :t take 10
take 10 :: [a] -> [a]
> :t take 10 ['a'..'z']
take 10 (enumFromTo 'a' 'z') :: [Char]
I think the key is examples.
