最佳答案
data GroceryItem = CartItem ItemName Price Quantity | StockItem ItemName Price Quantity
makeGroceryItem :: String -> Float -> Int -> GroceryItem
makeGroceryItem name price quantity = CartItem name price quantity
I want to create a `GroceryItem` when using a `String` or `[String]`
createGroceryItem :: [String] -> GroceryItem
createGroceryItem (a:b:c) = makeGroceryItem a b c
The input will be in the format ["Apple","15.00","5"] which I broke up using Haskell's words function.
I get the following error which I think is because makeGroceryItem accepts a Float and an Int.
*Type error in application
*** Expression : makeGroceryItem a read b read c
*** Term : makeGroceryItem
*** Type : String -> Float -> Int -> GroceryItem
*** Does not match : a -> b -> c -> d -> e -> f*
But how do I make b and c of type Float and Int, respectively?
