Re: [Haskell-cafe] Ordering vs. Order

Chris,

I'm not a native English speaker and recently I was wondering about the two words "order" and "ordering" (the main reason why I write this to the Haskell mailing list, is that the type class "Ordering" does exist).

Irrelevant to your struggle, but note that the *type class* is dubbed "Ord", while the Prelude provides a *type* "Ordering": class ... => Ord a where ... data Ordering = LT | EQ | GT deriving ... Cheers, Stefan
