Need to partition a list into lists based on breaks in ascending order of elements (Haskell)

You can do this by resorting to manual recursion, but I like to believe Haskell is a more evolved language. Let’s see if we can develop a solution that uses existing recursion strategies. First some preliminaries. {-# LANGUAGE NoMonomorphismRestriction #-} — because who wants to write type signatures, amirite? import Data.List.Split — from package split … Read more

Intersection and union of 2 lists

Also, not sure why you’re dead against cuts, so long as their removal would not change the declaritive meaning of the code, as per your link. For example: inter([], _, []). inter([H1|T1], L2, [H1|Res]) :- member(H1, L2), inter(T1, L2, Res). inter([_|T1], L2, Res) :- inter(T1, L2, Res). test(X):- inter([1,3,5,2,4], [6,1,2], X), !. test(X). X = … Read more

“bad words” filter [closed]

Beware of clbuttic mistakes. “Apple made the clbuttic mistake of forcing out their visionary – I mean, look at what NeXT has been up to!” Hmm. “clbuttic”. Google “clbuttic” – thousands of hits! There’s someone who call his car ‘clbuttic’. There are “Clbuttic Steam Engine” message boards. Webster’s dictionary – no help. Hmm. What can … Read more

How to count number of element occurrences in a list in Prolog

The following is based on my previous answer to “Remove duplicates in list (Prolog)” and on this previous answer to the question “Prolog union for A U B U C“. list_item_subtracted_count0_count/5 is derived from list_item_subtracted/3. list_counts/2 is derived from list_setB/2, which were both defined here. list_item_subtracted_count0_count([], _, [], N,N). list_item_subtracted_count0_count([A|As], E, Bs1, N0,N) :- if_(A … Read more

In Dart, what’s the difference between List.from and .of, and between Map.from and .of?

The important difference between the from and of methods are that the latter have type annotations and the former do not. Since Dart generics are reified and Dart 2 is strongly typed, this is key to both ensuring the List/Map is correctly constructed: List<String> foo = new List.from(<int>[1, 2, 3]); // okay until runtime. List<String> … Read more

Replace individual list elements in Haskell?

Typically, you modify elements of a list by splitting the list, replacing an element, and joining it back together. To split a list at an index, we have: splitAt :: Int -> [a] -> ([a], [a]) which you can use to break up a list, like so: > splitAt 2 [“Off”,”Off”,”Off”,”Off”] ([“Off”,”Off”],[“Off”,”Off”]) now you just … Read more
