Dot operator in haskell with multi-parameter functions

Question

I want to write a function point-free in haskell, to keep things simple lets say I want to make this function:

maxmin :: Ord a => a -> a -> a ->          


        

Answer 1

I wouldn't say this is simplier but here you go:

maxmin :: Ord a => a -> a -> a -> a                                             
maxmin = (. min) . (.) . max 

(Generated with pl tool from lambdabot http://www.haskell.org/haskellwiki/Pointfree)

lambdabot> pl maxmin a b c = max a (min b c)
maxmin = (. min) . (.) . max
