[Haskell-beginners] Constructor classes and type classes.

[PATRICK BROWNE]

My intended use of the term 'subclass' is as the Haskell report:
<https://www.haskell.org/onlinereport/basic.html>
"class Num of numeric types is a subclass of Eq, since all numbers may be
compared for equality"
Of course what I have written may not be consistent with the report.
Regards,
Pat
