Hello.
Given the following function definitions
f 0 = True
g False = True
ghc infers the following types for the functions:
f :: (Eq a, Num a) => a -> Bool
g :: Bool -> Bool
Why f has "Eq a" in the context in ts type, and g does not?
As both are defined using a constant pattern, I expected none of them
should require the type of the argument to be instance of Eq.
