An array of character strings, for example

I kind of understand pointers, but what about arrows?

lolFun :: (Bool -> [Char]) -> Char
means that the function takes a predicate (Bool) and a list of Chars, then the predicate is applied to the list and returns a single Char.

You don't understand arrows, or Haskell.

The (->) function is not an arrow -- it is the function creation function.

Explain how -> isn't an arrow. It has an arrow line and an arrow head, ergo, it must be an arrow.

→ is an arrow, -> is a hyphen and a greater-than sign.

Well, my EMACS supports ``proper arrows''.

It's actually a hyphen-minus and a greater-than sign.

``'' is a hyphen.
``'' is a minus sign.
``-'' is a hyphen-minus.

Needs more JPEG artifacts.
Seriously, what the fuck? Why can't people figure out what image formats are best for what kinds of images?

If it has as few colors as this one, use either GIF or PNG, and only use GIF if your image editor can pick a sane palette.

Maybe it isn't JPEG artifacts, but that noise is actually part of the font?

Hey /prog/, let's make a monospace bitmap version of Comic Sans, suitable for coding. The best of both worlds.

Pointers let you in effect pass a small object (i.e., the pointer to a big object) instead of copying a big, full object.  Pointers are also useful when you want a function to modify something outside of itself.
