Subject: Pattern matching over lazy lists
Date: Tue, 10 Jul 2007 23:38:46 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <200707102338.47010.jon@ffconsultancy.com> (raw)


What's the best way to do this?

I was thinking of forcing the first few elements of a lazy list before pattern 
matching and then looking for forced values in the lists as patterns but I 
don't think you can deconstruct a lazy value in a pattern match...
