Re: [Haskell-cafe] Separate a string into a list of strings

Hi

beginsWith [] [] = True beginsWith _ [] = True beginsWith [] _ = False beginsWith (a:aa) (b:bb) | a == b = aa `beginsWith` bb | otherwise = False

I used to have this in my library then I discovered isPrefixOf :) (or flip isPrefixOf, I think in this case)

endsWith a b = beginsWith (reverse a) (reverse b) ditto, isSuffixOf

Thanks Neil
