If that were the reason, then to be consistent, there would be no literals in patterns, as these are tested using equality.
Only numeric literals actually use the '==' operator, correct?
Yes. This is a hack which allows viewing numeric types as algebraic types with many constructors, assuming that (==) definition is sane. -- __("< Marcin Kowalczyk * qrczak@knm.org.pl http://qrczak.ids.net.pl/ \__/ ^^ SYGNATURA ZASTÊPCZA QRCZAK
