Re: ML like pattern matching

Greetings,

How do I emulate the "when" clause in ML for pattern matching? In other words when a pattern is matched (from a list of patterns of a function) and to enforce additional predicates I use guards, but if the guard condition is not satisfied I want Haskell to get back to trying the remaining patterns.

Thanks

Maybe you hav to reorganize the list of patterns or you use "otherwise" as the last case of your guard conditions to call the function with a more general parameters which matches an other pattern. A litle example would be helpfull. Jonas
