[Haskell-beginners] 'case of' question

[Manfred Lotz]

Hi there,
Let's say I have something like this (it is an artificial example just
for illustration):

case x of
 1 -> doThis
 5 -> doThis
 76 -> doThis
 112 -> doThat
 21 -> doThat
 _ -> doOtherwise


I would like to have something like this (which is illegal)

case x of
 1 | 5 | 76  -> doThis
 112 | 21 -> doThat
  _ -> doOtherwise


Is something like this possible to do? 


The only idea I got is:

processX x 
  | x `elem` [ 1, 5, 76 ] = doThis
  | x `elem` [ 112, 21 ] = doThat
  | otherwise = doOtherwise
