Hi Alex,
I suggest you try haskell-cafe@haskell.org, its a much better place to
ask these sorts of Haskell style questions.
The answer is to use an "if" expression somewhere, I'll leave you to
figure out where :)
Thanks

Hi, I am a newbie in Haskell and have some problem of defining a function that would convert all small letters to capital and leave the rest intact. I have managed to do with two functions:
capitalise :: String -> String capitalise xs = [capitalise2 ch| ch<-xs]
capitalise2 :: Char -> Char capitalise2 ch | isLower ch = chr (ord ch - 32) | otherwise = ch
But in the book exercise it asks to define as a single function. I tried like this:
capitalise :: String -> String capitalise xs = [chr (ord ch - 32) | ch<-xs, isLower ch]
But this returns only converted characters, the rest is ignored.
Any help would be much appriciated.
