Hi,

In exercise 2 of http://www.walenz.org/Dijkstra/page0145.html we need to write a function that holds

(1) The value 1 is in the sequence

(2) If x and y are in the sequence, so is f(x,y), where f has the properties

a. f(x,y) > x

b. (y1 > y2) => (f(x,y1)>f(x,y2))

This is a solution for this problem, but an inefficient one

hammingff :: [Integer]

hammingff = 1 : merge [ h x y | x <- hammingff, y <- hammingff ] [ h x y | y <- hammingff, x <- hammingff ]

h x y = 2*x+3*y

merge :: (Ord a) => [a] -> [a] -> [a]

merge [] xs = xs

merge ys [] = ys

merge (x:xs) (y:ys) = case compare x y of

    LT -> x : merge xs (y:ys)

GT -> y : merge (x:xs) ys

EQ -> x : merge xs ys

anybody  has a better solution?.

Thanks

Jose
