Is the only way to add type [Char] to the beginning of a [Char], concatenation ++?

Replace x with lst.

I was really trying to wrap my head around where the variable x is coming from?

I even get a compile error that the variable is not in scope.

I read till the end of this section to understand what the -> pointy arrow in the function signature meant. It would have been great if a note was added about this.

I understood that the first two types are for the variables and the last for the return. This is in the recap, however, I would like to know if there is any other use of the pointy arrow.

Use variable as y to avoid confusion with multiplication operator.

EDIT: It is described below the table.

<del>Small text describing the operators would help beginners never exposed to code.</del>

Those of you trying to understand this /= is the not equals operator.

This is a duplication of what is already a part of the previous section.

I ran into an issue here - The first time after installation that I ran hie, it worked. However, after exiting the root user, I tried hie, command not found. I tried getting back into the root user, command not found again.

I copied the hie file from root ~/.local/bin/hie to my home directory.

I probably should have installed as a regular user instead of root. I got another error in VScode as soon as I opened the Main.hs file.

You are not the owner of '/home/kaycee/github/octo-goggles/haskell/first-project/.stack-work/'. Aborting to protect file permissions.
Retry with '--allow-different-user' to disable this precaution.

I added allow-different-user: true to ~/.stack/config.yaml file.

Suggestion: Please add an instruction to not use a root shell for the installation. Saves a lot of time in fixing it later. GHC was downloaded yet another time for me.

Some more explanation on this would help.

How to change the resolver? For example, I have a nightly build, I'd like to switch to an LTS version.

It's not clear if we are expected to just follow the install instructions and the steps 2, 3 and 4 from the Get started page are covered in the chapters in this book.

This section was super easy to understand than reading - https://docs.haskellstack.org/en/stable/README/

This should probably be referenced in the previous chapter.

By this point I am not aware of what stack and cabal are. I'm hoping that this is covered in the next chapter as there is no indication. My immediate action was to do a search on these terms.

https://docs.haskellstack.org/en/stable/README/ https://www.haskell.org/cabal/

You should probably also add some predefined tags here to be used in annotations. It would make it easier for you to sift through the annotations.
