[Haskell-beginners] Is there an idiom for this?

[emacstheviking]

I guess it depends on the final use cases... you could use currying to
partially evaluate some stuff ready, locked and loaded as it were but the
example you have  given shows to distinct functions pres1 and pred2.

I guess the short answer is "yes" but it depends on how you do it!
