- Lambdas are a nice way to avoid defining unnecessary separate functions. Convert the following let- or where-bindings to lambdas:
map f xs where f x = x * 2 + 3
let f x y = read x + y in foldr f 1 xs
Sections are just syntactic sugar for lambda operations. I.e. (+2) is equivalent to \x -> x + 2. What would the following sections 'desugar' to? What would be their types?
(4+)
(1 `elem`)
(`notElem` "abc")
|
map (\x -> x * 2 + 3) xs
foldr (\x y -> read x + y) 1 xs
\x -> 4 + x :: Int -> Int
\xs -> elem 1 xs :: [Int] -> Bool
\c -> notElem c "abc" :: Char -> Bool
