[*] Which notation do you use for functions in text? is f() ok?
Sure, although a little unusual for Haskell where f() means f applied to the empty tuple. Some people use |f| (generally those who use latex), but generally it can be inferred from the context what is a function
Neil's answer was complete I just want to elaborate on this last point. f is the most logical (and for Haskell things appropriate) notation. It's an odd historical quirk of mathematical notation that using f(x) for f is still so common.
