(Only the @ symbol, which may only occur in patterns, binds even stronger.) Function application binds stronger, in fact: strongest.

And Haskell can be very nice for expressing listy-type things, such as the case in point :-) perl -e ‘$fac = 1; $fac *= $_ for 1..$ARGV[0]; print $fac;’

The lispiness of my code really is because of my not being certain whether arithmetic of function evaluation binds tighter...

fac n = product [1..n]

This is a lot like “n! is the product of all integers from 1 to n”

Also, the Haskell isn’t Lisp:

> fac 8 / (fac 3 * fac 5)
56.0

I admit that I sometimes add extra parens because I’m not sure if they’re necessary…
