The trick is that Int is not the only index data type, but tuples of index data types are, too. Do this:
| type Point = (State, State, Int) | type TypeV = Array State Double | | matrix :: TypeV | matrix = array bounds values | where | ... Surely you meant to say
| type TypeV = Array Point Double
True, I did make that mistake.
Cheers, Ben And
type Value = Double newtype PointNat = PointNat Int deriving (...Ix) type Point = (State,State,PointNat)
Or even
type TypeVof a = Array PointNat a type TypeV = TypeVof Value
I did not even run the code I wrote through ghci, I was just showing what it could look like.
And stop calling me Shirley.
Dear Chris,
Could you please be a bit more explicit? Have I offended anyone? Or else, how do I have to understand this comment other than as a rebuke? And how comes you answer this as if you were the one who posted the code, and not a person named Matthias Fischmann?
Sorry for the misunderstanding. No one has been offended or given offense. The Surely/Shirley is a reference to the classic 1980 motion picture "Airplane!" in which the humor includes a repeated motif [1]:
Rumack: Mr. Striker, the passengers are getting worse. You must land soon. Ted Striker: Surely there must be something you can do. Rumack: I'm doing everything I can... and stop calling me Shirley.
Ted Striker: Surely you can't be serious. Rumack: I am serious... and don't call me Shirley.
Please note that English is not my native tongue so there is always the possibility that I misunderstood something, or that I express myself badly and so cause misunderstandings. Is the expression "Surely you meant to say <whatever>" perceived as offending or arrogant, perhaps? In this case I would gladly apologize and assure everyone that this was not intended!
Nothing was offensive or arrogant.I just saw it as an opportunity to reference the joke.
I posted this correction only in order to avoid confusion for the OP, who described himself as a beginner with regard to Haskell. I didn't mean to be nitpicking or anything like that. If I have made a mistake, either technically or by chosing the wrong words, then please tell me so.
Your answer to my other posting today is of a similar nature, i.e. completely obscure to me, and totally disregarding the essence of my question. If there is something personal involved here (for which I can't imagine any reason other than the above mentioned one) maybe it would be better to clearly say so (and sort this out in private and not on this list).
I am sorry my other posting was off topic. Sometimes I contribute what occurs to me instead of what is relevant. Cheers, Chris [1] http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0080339/quotes
