Hello people, I've been studying the Haskell 98 report as part of my study of the Haskell language and need to rant just a little bit. <micro-rant> As long as were trying to clean up a final version of the Haskell 98 report, lets simplify it a little by getting rid of unary minus. It's the only prefix operator in the whole language. It requires messing up the otherwise clean expression syntax. It has a meaning that the user can't change, very rare in Haskell. It even has a fixed precedence level. It leads to excessive confusion when dealing with sections involving '-' (the binary operator). Uses can be replaced by either negate x or 0-x. </micro-rant> I know we can't actually remove unary minus at this point, I just had to get this off my chest. -- Gary
