But zaxis, here's another thing to look at. There's usually a "view
source" link beside most of the functions that come up in the Haddock
documentation to which Hoogle links. It's worth clicking. You would be
surprised (certainly I was!) at how often looking at the definition
of a function suddenly makes it quite clear what it does, when the
description didn't quite do it for you. (This is one of the joys of
Haskell.)
