It depends how much you mean "like" :). Usually whatever you would solve using a while loop in an imperative language is solved with recursion in Haskell. The problem with directly having 'while' is that such a statement depends necessarily on mutable variables (otherwise, if the condition is 'true' at the start, it will never be 'false'). Moreover, there isn't usually a return value associated with a while statement. -- Hal Daume III | hdaume@isi.edu "Arrest this man, he talks in maths." | www.isi.edu/~hdaume On Wed, 11 Jun 2003, Filip wrote:
I have a stupid question :) Is there something like "while" loop in GHC ??
