Hi haskell-cafe,
From a non programmer : Does someone know the exact source, book, page no etc. where Haskell Curry intoduced and developed its concept of a curry function.
I'm afraid I don't know anything not mentioned by http://www.cs.nott.ac.uk/~gmh/faq.html#currying I wonder if "Combinatory logic", Haskell B. Curry and Robert Feys, North-Holland, 1958, might cite the right earlier sources.
Is there an exemple of such a function in the Haskell language ?
Most certainly. For instance, we can define: f :: Integer -> Integer -> Integer f x y = x + y g = f 1 Then,
:type f Integer -> Integer -> Integer :type g Integer -> Integer f 2 3 5 g 4 5
I hope that helps. -- Mark
