Hi,
This is my first post to this list so I apologize in advance if I don't use it properly, or if my question is too simple or inapropriate.
I come from the Caml world and I am quite new to Haskell (but not to functional programming). I am currently trying to get the hang of Haskell arrays. I have gone through regular arrays, IO Arrays and I am now working with ST Arrays.
This is the problem I am currently stuck with. I write the following code:
arr = newArray (-1, 1) 0 :: ST s (STArray s Int Int) get :: Int -> Int get i = runST (arr >>= (\b -> readArray b i))
Here everything is perfectly OK.
Now I want a more general version that could deal with any array like arr. So I write:
get2 :: ST s (STArray s Int Int) -> Int -> Int get2 tab i = runST (tab >>= (\b -> readArray b i))
And the compiler is clearly very upset by my code:
Couldn't match type ‘s’ with ‘s1’ ‘s’ is a rigid type variable bound by the type signature for: get2 :: forall s. ST s (STArray s Int Int) -> Int -> Int at testst.hs:17:9 ‘s1’ is a rigid type variable bound by a type expected by the context: forall s1. ST s1 Int at testst.hs:18:14 Expected type: ST s1 Int Actual type: ST s Int I am pretty sure that the compiler is right and I am wrong, but I don't get why... Anyone could help?
Thanks
