[Haskell-beginners] Recursive Let

There's actually nothing all that difficult about _|_; it is the value
of divergent computations--i.e. infinite recursion which never
actually produces any data.  We usually also say that anything which
results in a run-time error is _|_. For example, each of the following
is _|_:

  undefined
  error "blarg"
  let x = x in x
  let y = y + 1 in y
