[Haskell-beginners] List operations

[jianqiuchi at gmail.com]

Hi,

I have a question about the cost of list comprehension and map function.

For example, I have a list of Double and I want to do lots of calculation  
on it. There are two ways to do that:
1. [x ** 3 | x <- list]
2. map (flip (**) 3) list
I am wondering if the cost of using them could be very different and why.

Thanks.
