Hi
How come
foldr1 min [(maxBound::Int) % 1,1 % 2]
2147483647 % 1
I guess that foldr1 min == minimum
but
foldr1 min [2147483647 % 1,1 % 2]
1 % 2
Why???
The first one certainly causes an overflow with machine word Ints whereas 2147483647 is an Integer and thus all other numbers are interpreted as Integers.
