[Haskell] 2 programs VERY URGENT

[Thomas Davie]

Hi,
   While this is an interesting question, the haskell mailing list is  
not really the appropriate place to ask it.

Questions here should be of the form of:
• How do I work this feature of Haskell
• What the hell does this error mean
• Wouldn't it be cool if Haskell did this?
• Is there a <insert dev tool here> for Haskell?
• Is there a <insert library here> library for Haskell?

They shouldn't be of the form:
• Can you do my university assignement for me?
• Can you write this piece of code for me?

Although, you could probably get away with:
• Here's a solution to this problem, how do I optimise it?
