Thanks. I'll take a look at it. I also need to take a look at the basic Haskell syntax. An interesting-looking web page which discusses monads is: http://www.nomaware.com/monads/html/analogy.html What struck me was this bit of code: assemblyLine w = (return w) >>= makeChopsticks >>= polishChopsticks >>= wrapChopsticks Interestingly, this looks like Forth (!), where you put a value on the stack, and successive operations fiddle with the stack as a series of transformations. Not that I know Forth, you understand. Hmm, so Haskell can be a concatenative language if you want it to be. ___________________________________________________________ Yahoo!
