Hi Haskell-Cafe, Consider a data type such as data Binding = Binding Var (Either Value [Value]) representing a variable bound either to a fixed value or that has a list of possible values. I'd like to perform an operation on say, the fixed-value members of a list of bindings. Data.Either has "partitionEithers"---I'd essentially like to use partitionEithers, but in a way that it "peeks" into the value field of the binding. For the sake of argument, let's say I can't or can't modify Binding to move the Either to the outside. What would be an idiomatic Haskell way to accomplish this? Currently I've got "liftedPartitionEithers :: [a] -> (a -> Either b c) -> ([a], [a])" which is my own version of partitionEithers that calls a selector first. Another option would be to map each Binding to a new datatype that has the Either on the outside, use partitionEithers, and map back. Thanks, Aran
