[Haskell-cafe] Rewrite this imperative in FP way

[Yves Parès]

Okay.
But that's misleading, as normally x == y = True *iff* compare x y = EQ,
but there this is not verified, as you don't redefined

A function like "unionBy" doesn't exist, so IMHO to limit ambiguity, it
would be a good idea to use MyTuple *only *at the specific place where you
need its Eq instance instead of that of tuple (and then remove the Ord
MyTuple instance), and use regular tuples elsewhere. The following should
do the job:
map getTuple . (`union` c) . map MyTuple
