[Haskell-beginners] possible incorrect indentation

[jean verdier]

Indent the if like this:

if (c=='y')
  then evaluate e'
  else putStrLn "OK, finished"

I don't know the syntax rule of why you should write it like this. The
point is that your then and else should be more indented than your if.
The following also works:

if (c=='y') then evaluate e'
  else putStrLn "OK, finished"
