Hi Bulat and Stefan - Thanks very much for your help - very much appreciated! In spite of being a newcomer, I'm very much sold on Haskell's elegance and clean syntax. On the subject of whether this is a good way to learn Haskell - granted, it's probably not ideal. However, I've already been through the GHC user guide (and also visited the "PLEAC" site on Sourceforge). I didn't find quite the code that I was looking for in either place, so I scanned the archives of this list as well (where I found the previously-posted code). So that's three places ... If there were a "Haskell cookbook" (as there is a Python one), I would have gone straight there. I regularly use the "Python cookbook" site which is very useful . However, until there's a Haskell equivalent (which then newcomers could be pointed at) , it's pretty much a case of "finding what one can" ... :-) Many thanks again - I'll make this my last post for at least a week or two (to give others some bandwidth) - - Andy
