我正在尝试运行此教科书示例,但我一直收到此错误:
* Couldn't match expected type `Integer -> t'
with actual type `[Char]'
* The function `showPerson' is applied to two arguments,
but its type `People -> [Char]' has only one
In the expression: showPerson "charles" 18
In an equation for `it': it = showPerson "charles" 18
* Relevant bindings include it :: t (bound at <interactive>:38:1)
我不明白为什么我收到这个错误。我正在输入正确的类型。
我的代码是:
type Name = String
type Age = Int
data People = Person Name Age
showPerson :: People -> String
showPerson (Person a b) = a ++ " -- " ++ show b
答案 0 :(得分:4)
您声明的showPerson
函数只有一个参数。此参数的类型为People
。
但是,根据您引用的错误判断,您尝试使用两个参数调用此函数 - "charles"
和18
。第一个参数类型为String
,第二个类型为Int
。
这就是编译器试图告诉你的时候:
The function `showPerson' is applied to two arguments,
but its type `People -> [Char]' has only one
要正确调用函数,首先需要创建类型为People
的值,然后将该值作为参数传递给函数:
p = Person "charles" 18
showPerson p
或者同一行:
showPerson (Person "charles" 18)
