在GHCi中，可以使用:type来查看对象的类型，与http://www.cnblogs.com/long123king/p/3837686.html中说到的一样，
Haskell中，函数也是一种特殊的对象，对象就有类型，函数作为一种对象，可以作为参数传递，也可以赋值，创建和销毁。
Prelude> :type (+) (+) :: Num a => a -> a -> a
这个类似要怎么解释呢，"::"的前面是函数的名称，后面是函数对象的类型，或者说原型。
"=>"前面的Num a是表明参数的类型，
Prelude> :type 1 1 :: Num a => a
后面是函数的输入与输出类型声明。
之所以会有多个->，那是因为(+)函数对象中其实包含一个更加简单的函数，比如(+) 2，这个函数的意思是“在使用(+)函数对象时，将第一个参数固定为2，这与boost中的bind类似”，而这个函数对象的类型是Num a => a->a，
再把另外一个参数传递给这个简单的函数，得到的结果也是a类型，因此(+)是一个复合函数。
凡是需要多个参数的函数对象，都可以分解成一步一步的简单函数组成的复合函数。
Prelude> (+) 2
<interactive>:35:1:
No instance for (Num a0) arising from a use of `+'
The type variable `a0' is ambiguous
Possible fix: add a type signature that fixes these type variable(s)
Note: there are several potential instances:
instance Num Double -- Defined in `GHC.Float'
instance Num Float -- Defined in `GHC.Float'
instance Integral a => Num (GHC.Real.Ratio a)
-- Defined in `GHC.Real'
...plus three others
In the expression: (+) 2
In an equation for `it': it = (+) 2
<interactive>:35:1:
No instance for (Show (a0 -> a0)) arising from a use of `print'
Possible fix: add an instance declaration for (Show (a0 -> a0))
In a stmt of an interactive GHCi command: print it
Prelude> :type (+) 2
(+) 2 :: Num a => a -> a
特殊符号需要显式地用括号来表明这是个函数对象，
对于普通的函数对象，也可以使用括号来表明其函数对象的身份。
Prelude> :type + <interactive>:1:1: parse error on input `+' Prelude> :type (+) (+) :: Num a => a -> a -> a Prelude> :type names names :: [Char] Prelude> :type head head :: [a] -> a Prelude> :type (head) (head) :: [a] -> a
再来看一个更加复杂的函数对象
Prelude> :type map map :: (a -> b) -> [a] -> [b]
这个函数对象包含了两个简单函数对象， (a -> b)是一个函数，可以将类型a的对象转换成类型b的对象；
(a -> b) -> [a]，是另外一个函数，它的意思是“在执行整体函数对象时，将第一个参数固定为[a]”。
这种将复合函数对象（包含了多个参数的函数对象）分解成几个简单函数对象的思想，是为了支持“函数作为一种对象”的这种设计理念，
这样就可以将上面分解出的简单的函数作为参数，传递给复合函数对象。
比如
Prelude> let nums = [1..100] Prelude> map ((*) 2) nums [2,4,6,8,10,12,14,16,18,20,22,24,26,28,30,32,34,36,38,40,42,44,46,48,50,52,54,56,58,60,62,64,66,68,70,72,74,76,78,80,82,84,86,88,90,92,94,96,98,100,102,104,106,108,110,112,114,116,118,120,122,124,126,128,130,132,134,136,138,140,142,144,146,148,150,152,154,156,158,160,162,164,166,168,170,172,174,176,178,180,182,184,186,188,190,192,194,196,198,200]
虽然，像(+) 2这样的函数对象在多数时候，看起来并不是一个常见的用法。

Prelude> :type foldr foldr :: (a -> b -> b) -> b -> [a] -> b Prelude> foldr (:) "King" ['D','a','n','i','e','l', ' '] "Daniel King"
但是用foldl就不行。
使用子模块功能
Prelude> map Data.Char.isDigit ((++) ['0'..'9'] ['a'..'z']) [True,True,True,True,True,True,True,True,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False] Prelude> map Data.Char.isDigit (concat [['0'..'9'],['a'..'z']]) [True,True,True,True,True,True,True,True,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False]
另外，(++) 与concat的功能不相同，它们的原型也不相同，因此在使用一个函数之前，一定要明确这个函数的原型。
