using list comprehension

Show all headers | View raw

Hi
I'm trying to understand if I can use the following code in a list comprehension.

The following works for 2 values - 456.78 44
perc = 44.56
returns nav shares =
  let aum = nav * shares
      rets = aum ^ 2
      val = 1000 / perc
      rem = aum / rets  + val 
  in aum / rets * rem ^ 4

main = do 
   print(returns 456.78 44) -- result is 12.620116562240828

.......... however, what I would like to achieve is - can I use the above logic for many values in a list comprehension?

eg

nav = [1,2,3,4]
shares = [5,6,7,8]

I would now like my "return" function to act on the list's nav and shares.
Is this possible and how.

Regards
