Re: [Haskell-cafe] "Assignment" in do blocks?

It’s not re-assigment, it’s rather feature request for non-rec-let (as let in Haskell is recursive) and some pragma to say “yes, I do shadow name on purpose" For example fix f = let x = f x in x -- let is recursive niceTry f = noreclet x = f x in x -- Not in scope: ‘x’ - Oleg

Hi all,

I'd like to propose an inbuilt "assignment" operator for use within do-blocks.

Time to add your proposal here! https://wiki.haskell.org/Nitpicks

Honestly, I feel it would break the way I read Haskell programs (i.e. no reassignment surprises).
