Re: [Haskell-cafe] I think someone had a complicated program to use brackets for array indexing - is it possible to use a DSL for this?

There's some plans to allow more flexible overloaded list syntax that, once done, would allow list style notation for static sized tuples/lists. But it's probably not gonna be mature till ghc 7.14 at the current rate. Hopefully 7.12, but more likely 7.14 On Monday, June 1, 2015, KC wrote:

Then a tuple might work better as input to a function to index into an array

e.g. myArray (5)

Aside from 1-tuples not being a thing? (That's the same as (myArray 5).)
