[Haskell-cafe] Re: Overloading functions based on arguments?

Is this kind of overloading (instead of the polymorphism based overloading) possible in Haskell? Namely to have two functions with the same name but different signatures so they could be distinguished by a call's parameters? I fear not... So I guess I have to name the functions differently, right?

Thanks for all the quick replies, I think I'm really going for different names :) But there were some nice ideas I will remember for the future, maybe they can be of some use for something else! Daniel
