Me again, I'm trying to iterate through my list of customers to find the correct customer and when I find them I want to display any non-zero int's that are attached to them. I'm not sure how to proceed. I know there will only be 1 record of the person's name in the shop.
type Name = String
type Customer = (Name,Int,Int)
type Shop = [Customer]
shop = [cust1, cust2]
cust1 = ("Steve", 321, 123) :: Customer
cust2 = ("John", 0,678) :: Customer
getName :: Customer -> Name
getName (a, b,c) = a
getNumbers :: Customer -> [Int]
getNumbers (a,b,c) = filter (/=0) [b,c]
rental:: Shop-> Name -> [Int]
rental shop' name' = map getNumbers [ x|x<-shop',getName x == name']
It is very useful to read error message!
test23.hs:10:9:
Couldn't match type `(Name, t0)' with `(Name, Int, Int)'
Expected type: Customer
Actual type: (Name, t0)
You have
getName (a, b) = a
but is defined
type Customer = (Name,Int,Int)
The right function looks like
getName (a, _, _) = a
After correct, you could see next meassage:
test23.hs:17:26:
Couldn't match type `[Int]' with `Int'
Expected type: Customer -> Int
Actual type: Customer -> [Int]
In the first argument of `map', namely `getNumbers'
...
In an equation for `rental'
But error is not in getNumbers
, but in signature of rental:: Shop-> Name -> [Int]
. Must be:
rental:: Shop-> Name -> [[Int]]
Your answer is pretty close. First of all, you need to update getName
to take a 3-tuple, and second you should use concatMap getNumbers
instead of map getNumbers
.
Although, it looks like you're going to be adding new fields to your Customer
type, so I would recommend that you switch to using a record instead:
data Customer = Customer
{ custName :: Name
, custVal1 :: Int -- I don't know what these are, so use real names
, custVal2 :: Int
} deriving (Eq, Show)
And now you could get rid of getName
and do
getNumbers :: Customer -> [Int]
getNumbers c = filter (/= 0) [custVal1 c, custVal2 c]
rental :: Shop -> Name -> [Int]
rental shop' name' = concatMap getNumbers [x | x <- shop', custName x == name']
Now if you were to add another field to Customer
, you don't have to update all your functions that don't depend on that field.
