Haskell 将 Int 与 Int 混淆 -> Int

Question

我最近在 Haskell 中遇到了这个奇怪的问题。下面的代码应该返回一个缩小到一个范围内的值(如果它高于 high 它应该返回 high 如果它低于 low 它应该返回 low 。

inRange :: Int -> Int -> Int -> Int
inRange low high = max low $ min high

错误信息是:

scratch.hs:2:20:
    Couldn't match expected type ‘Int -> Int’ with actual type ‘Int’
    In the expression: max low $ min high
    In an equation for ‘inRange’: inRange low high = max low $ min high

scratch.hs:2:30:
    Couldn't match expected type ‘Int’ with actual type ‘Int -> Int’
    Probable cause: ‘min’ is applied to too few arguments
    In the second argument of ‘($)’, namely ‘min high’
    In the expression: max low $ min high

难道不应该再提出一个论点并将其置于高位吗？我已经尝试过其他可能性，例如:

\x -> max low $ min high x

和

\x -> max low $ (min high x)

在 GHCI 中尝试时，出现以下错误:

<interactive>:7:5:
    Non type-variable argument in the constraint: Num (a -> a)
    (Use FlexibleContexts to permit this)
    When checking that ‘inRange’ has the inferred type
      inRange :: forall a.
                 (Num a, Num (a -> a), Ord a, Ord (a -> a)) =>
                 a -> a

Answer 1

($)定义为:

f $ x = f x

所以你的例子实际上是:

max low (min high)

这是错误的，因为你实际上想要

max low (min high x)

使用函数组合，其定义为:

f . g = \x -> f (g x)

和您的工作示例 \x -> max low (min high x)我们得到:

\x -> max low (min high x)
== max low . min high -- by definition of (.)
