How do I convert a list to a tuple in Haskell?

Question

How can I best convert a list to a tuple in Haskell:

[1,2,3,4,5,6] -> (1,2,3,4,5,6)

Answer 1

I find it difficult to make cogent explanations of Template Haskell manipulations, but here is a demonstration:

> :m +Language.Haskell.TH
> :set -XTemplateHaskell
> runQ [| [1,2,3,4,5,6] |] >>= putStrLn . pprint
[1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6]
> runQ [| [1,2,3,4,5,6] |] >>= \ (ListE exps) -> putStrLn (pprint (TupE exps))
(1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6)
