[Haskell-beginners] instance 2

[Ut Primum]

Hi,

I think the problem is indentation. Write the code this way:

data StringOrInt = TisanInt Integer | TisAString String

instance Eq (StringOrInt) where
  (==) (TisanInt v) (TisanInt v') = v == v'
  (==) (TisAString s) (TisAString s') = s==s'

where the red lines are indented (it means you have to leave two white
spaces at the beginning of those lines).

Ut
