Hallo Tsunkiet,
Looking at
http://www.cs.uu.nl/wiki/bin/view/Helium/ATourOfTheHeliumPrelude
it seems you're looking for the /. operator, which is division on
floating points. The / you're using only works on integers.
Groetjes,
Martijn.

Hello,
I'm new to Haskell and it seems like a very nice language to learn.
However I'm not really familiar with the errormessages it produces. I am
using a Helium interpreter. I've created the following module (however
it is just a small sketch). I've written the following code:
fac :: Int -> Int
fac n = product[1..n]
boven :: Int -> Int -> Int
boven n k = (fac n) `div` fac k * fac (n-k)
bin :: Int -> Int -> Int -> Int
bin n k p |(n-k)>0 && k>0 = (boven n k) * (p^k) * (1-p)^(n-k)
|(n-k)<0 && k>0 = (boven n k) * (p^k) * (1/((1-p)^(-(n-k))))
|(n-k)<0 && k<0 = (boven n k) * (1/(p^(-k))) *
(1/((1-p)^(-(n-k))))
When I load this into my interpreter it says:
Compiling ./Test.hs
(11,55): Type error in infix application
expression : 1 / ((1 - p) ^ (-(n - k)))
operator : /
type : Float -> Float -> Float
does not match : Int -> Int -> Int
(12,47): Type error in infix application
expression : 1 / (p ^ (-k))
operator : /
type : Float -> Float -> Float
does not match : Int -> Int -> a
(12,62): Type error in infix application
expression : 1 / ((1 - p) ^ (-(n - k)))
operator : /
type : Float -> Float -> Float
does not match : Int -> Int -> a
Compilation failed with 3 errors
Some details that might be usefull:
Line 11 is |(n-k)<0 && k>0 = (boven n k) * (p^k) * (1/((1-p)^(-(n-k))))
Line 12 is |(n-k)<0 && k<0 = (boven n k) * (1/(p^(-k))) *
(1/((1-p)^(-(n-k))))
So my question is: how can I fix these errors?
(I used these lines of codes because it is not possible to use a
negative exponent in the Helium interpreter.)
Thank you for answering my question!
Greetings JTKM
