Probably not the module you're looking for, but then again you're not going to be able to turn any of the others in for your homework either . . .

module Main where eng_commafy :: (Show a) => [a] -> String eng_commafy x | length x > 2 = foldl1 (commacat) init_as_show ++ ", a +nd " ++ last_show where commacat x y = x ++ ", " ++ y init_as_show = map (show) (init x) last_show = show (last x) eng_commafy x | length x == 2 = (show (head x)) ++ " and " ++ (show (l +ast x)) eng_commafy x | length x == 1 = show (head x) eng_commafy [] = "" main = do putStrLn (eng_commafy [1..10]) putStrLn (eng_commafy [1,2]) putStrLn (eng_commafy [1])

(Yeah, my Haskell's terrible . . . :)

Update: Actually looking at the OP's posting history this is probably not homework. But it's still trivial and probably not past the threshold of "should be stuck in a module" on its own.

The cake is a lie.
