i want to know if HAskell has an inbuilt function in the prelude a function that allows me to use wild character like so: ie. if a list of strings contains a word or a combination of words that do not necessarily have to be side by side. someting that works like so [.. "hello" ..] == ["my", "tie" , "egg", "hello", "good"] would return True. where .. represents other elements of the list it counld be 1element or a hundred elements. please reply urgently to johnjohnjohn64@hotmail.com if haskell does not provide such a function can you please give me information on how to create one that would do such a thing that i need. THANKYOU FOR YOUR TIME. please reply! i need this function for an assignment for university. p.s if you're interested in the question visit. http://www.cse.unsw.edu.au/~cs1711/ass1/spec-ass1.html _________________________________________________________________________ Get Your Private, Free E-mail from MSN Hotmail at http://www.hotmail.com.
