问题
I'm making a function in Haskell that halves only the evens in a list and I am experiencing a problem. When I run the complier it complains that you can't perform division of an int and that I need a fractional int type declaration. I have tried changing the type declaration to float, but that just generated another error. I have included the function's code below and was hoping for any form of help.
halfEvens :: [Int] -> [Int]
halfEvens [] = []
halfEvens (x:xs) | odd x = halfEvens xs
| otherwise = x/2:halfEvens xs
Thank you for reading.

Use div, which performs integer division:
halfEvens :: [Int] -> [Int]
halfEvens [] = []
halfEvens (x:xs) | odd x = halfEvens xs
| otherwise = x `div` 2 : halfEvens xs
The (/) function requires arguments whose type is in the class Fractional, and performs standard division. The div function requires arguments whose type is in the class Integral, and performs integer division.
More precisely, div and mod round toward negative infinity. Their cousins, quot and rem, behave like integer division in C and round toward zero. div and mod are usually correct when doing modular arithmetic (e.g. when calculating the day of the week given a date), while quot and rem are slightly faster (I think).
Playing around a bit in GHCi:
> :t div
div :: Integral a => a -> a -> a
> :t (/)
(/) :: Fractional a => a -> a -> a
> 3 / 5
0.6
> 3 `div` 5
0
> (-3) `div` 5
-1
> (-3) `quot` 5
0
> [x `mod` 3 | x <- [-10..10]]
[2,0,1,2,0,1,2,0,1,2,0,1,2,0,1,2,0,1,2,0,1]
> [x `rem` 3 | x <- [-10..10]]
[-1,0,-2,-1,0,-2,-1,0,-2,-1,0,1,2,0,1,2,0,1,2,0,1]

I should add that using map would simplify the code.
HalfIfEven n
| even n = n `div` 2
| otherwise = n
halfEvens = map halfIfEven
