foldl' ?

[RichardE.Adams]

I don't know if this will help, but I am using GHC Interactive, version 
5.03, for Haskell 98, and I wanted to use the 'toUpper' function.  
'toUpper' is defined in Data.Char, but is not loaded when ghci is  
started:

      Prelude> :info toUpper

      Variable not in scope: `toUpper'

To bring 'toUpper' into scope, I put "import Char" in my program (a very 
simple program named "Text1.hs"):

      module Text1 where
      import Char

      f = Char.toUpper 'a'

After starting ghci from the operating system shell, I enter ":load 
<program name>" at the ghci prompt, then evaluate the function 'f':

      [localhost:~/Documents/myHaskellProgs] richard% ghci
           .
           .
           .
      Loading package base ... linking ... done.
      Loading package haskell98 ... linking ... done.
      Prelude> :load Text1.hs
      Compiling Text1            ( Text1.hs, interpreted )
      Ok, modules loaded: Text1.
      *Text1> f
      'A'
      *Text1>
