Hello,
an answer from me, this is NOT the homework assignment. For my own homework assignment, I had to create custom data types and convert a string containing my datatype into my datatype. I will not expose my datatype, but it is something with logical operators.
My approach would be using "operator recognition", I've written a function that can search those "operators". However I was wondering how they would do it with intergers because intergers are in a infinity set! But I couldn't figure it out =(.
Thanks for answering you all!

Is this a homework assignment, perchance? Please take a look at

Everyone here is glad to help, but we're also sensitive on academic
honesty.
With that said, you've done the first step, which is writing down the
function's type. You don't want to iterate over all possible Int
values, so maybe a recursive definition is in order. What are the cases
to consider? Like, what happens if you have a negative number...
> this is a cast function to cast an Int to a String. I know such function
By the way, "cast" is probably the wrong word for what you want. You're
building a string representation of an Integer; in my view it's not "just"
a type conversion.
Good luck,
John
