[Haskell-beginners] Type unions

[Russ Abbott]

Isn't "Either" the same thing as AorB in

data AorB = Aconstructor Int | Bconstructor Int


I want two separate types A and B along with a third type which is their
Union. Is that not possible?

In my actual case, I have more than two types.  So I would like a way to
take the union of an arbitrarily number of types.

data Union = A1 | A2 | ...


where each of A1, A2, ... has its own data declaration.
