2026-03-03 16:48:55 +0100 <haskellbridge> <ijouw> Yes, (:) is the constructor for lists. You need the one for trees.

2026-03-03 16:48:05 +0100 <c_wraith> Do you have a specific example to work with, or just exploring the idea more generally?
2026-03-03 16:46:14 +0100 <c_wraith> So you should be starting with the data definition, and the constructors within
2026-03-03 16:46:00 +0100 <c_wraith> Ah, true. Matching is done against the constructors for the data type.
2026-03-03 16:45:28 +0100 <durstloescher> my intuition says i just use (x:xs) but trees are no lists
2026-03-03 16:45:07 +0100 <durstloescher> i don't understand how i can "get" the value and how to proceed with the next node
2026-03-03 16:44:39 +0100 <durstloescher> i know the concept but i'm not comfortable with the use of pattern matching in this topic
2026-03-03 16:43:28 +0100 <c_wraith> (There's nothing particularly special about Haskell for binary trees, at least in the context of immutable data structures.)
2026-03-03 16:42:24 +0100 <c_wraith> How comfortable are you with binary trees in general?
2026-03-03 16:41:56 +0100 <durstloescher> hey can someone explain binary trees in haskell to me?

2026-03-03 16:16:11 +0100gentaurohowever, I DO run my `ghci` with stack -> `stack ghci`
2026-03-03 16:15:47 +0100 <gentauro> kind of strainge tbh
2026-03-03 16:15:43 +0100 <gentauro> __monty__: Nope. That seem to work

2026-03-03 16:12:08 +0100 <__monty__> Can you reproduce the same behavior in GHCi?
2026-03-03 16:11:18 +0100 <gentauro> but, I'm not on a windows device …
2026-03-03 16:11:10 +0100 <gentauro> I guess even (Elm) Evan ran into something like this (back in 2019): https://discourse.elm-lang.org/t/help-improve-unicode-support-on-windows/3366

2026-03-03 16:09:47 +0100 <gentauro> __monty__: yeah: `putStr (show localeEncoding)` -> `UTF-8`
2026-03-03 16:07:31 +0100 <__monty__> Does System.IO.localeEncoding report UTF-8 for you?

2026-03-03 16:04:37 +0100 <gentauro> __monty__: what does your `locale` say?
2026-03-03 15:59:17 +0100 <__monty__> If I `hSetEncoding` to `latin1` I do get the error you got so it looks like it is an encoding problem.
2026-03-03 15:55:32 +0100 <gentauro> it's correct to assume that `hSetEncoding` is set globally right? I just need to add it in my `main :: IO ()` right?

2026-03-03 15:53:23 +0100 <gentauro> it's just x3 the same syntas with the following keywords
2026-03-03 15:53:07 +0100 <gentauro> __monty__: obviously not. It's to write less ;)

2026-03-03 15:51:55 +0100 <__monty__> That doesn't look like valid Haskell syntax.
2026-03-03 15:51:27 +0100 <gentauro> just in case, it's `hSetEncoding {stderr|stdin|stdout} utf8`
2026-03-03 15:51:19 +0100misterfish(~misterfis@84.53.85.146) (Ping timeout: 264 seconds)
2026-03-03 15:50:25 +0100 <gentauro> I guess I've set UTF-8 properly in the Haskell app.
2026-03-03 15:50:10 +0100 <gentauro> ijouw: `hGetEncoding` -> `Just UTF-8`
2026-03-03 15:47:46 +0100 <gentauro> ijouw: let me try
2026-03-03 15:47:05 +0100 <yahb2> 🍎🍏
2026-03-03 15:47:05 +0100 <gentauro> % putStrLn [ '🍎', '🍏' ]
2026-03-03 15:46:57 +0100 <__monty__> (FYI, you can use en_DK to get sensible dates ; ) )
2026-03-03 15:46:40 +0100 <haskellbridge> <ijouw> Just to be sure, you can use hGetEncoding to double check
