Haskell: Converting Int to String

Question

I know you can convert a String to an number with read:

Prelude> read \"3\" :: Int
3
Prelude> read \"3\" :: Double 
3.0
         


        

Answer 1

Anyone who is just starting with Haskell and trying to print an Int, use:

module Lib
    ( someFunc
    ) where

someFunc :: IO ()
x = 123
someFunc = putStrLn (show x)
