[Haskell-beginners] how to check the format of a string ?

[Sumit Sahrawat, Maths & Computing, IIT (BHU)]

The exercise was meant to be done without using any library. Try it out, it
will work.
A parser combinator library, such as parsec or attoparsec is better learnt
after you have some idea of monads, which is the last topic cis194 deals
with.
But, if it interests you, keep going. Parsec might be a better option as it
has been there for a longer amount of time, and thus has more learning
resources.

Hope this helps.
