Haskell int to text

In Haskell, converting an integer to text can be accomplished using the show function. The show function is used to convert any value to its string representation.

Code Example

printInteger :: Integer -> String
printInteger n = show n

Example Usage

main :: IO ()
main = do
  let myInteger = 42
  putStrLn $ "My integer is: " ++ printInteger myInteger

In the above code, printInteger function takes an Integer argument and returns its string representation using the show function.

In main, we define an integer myInteger and print its string representation by calling printInteger within a putStrLn statement.

Conclusion

In Haskell, converting an integer to text can be done using the show function. This function converts any value to its string representation.
