As others have already said, Haskell does in fact have a "split on spaces"
function (words), and several others flavors of splitting that makes it
possible to dissect your list as you wish. If you still want a split
function ala Perl, there is a solid "split
<https://hackage.haskell.org/package/split>" package on hackage which
propose several standard function and a very configurable generic version
of the split concept for all lists. Also, Data.Text comes with several
splitting functions for use with the Text datatype.
