[Haskell-beginners] list range

[Henry Lockyer]

I'm a beginner so beware, but I believe [1..10] is a VALUE (it is not a function from something to something else).
It's type is essentially 'list of numeric' but because you used "..."  to express a range of values it also has to be of 
type 'Enum' as well as numeric.
If you have GHCI installed, then I recommend using the ":t" command to explore the types of Haskell expressions.
