Yes, I should have said that the two were not the same. I wrote the
Haskell first, then a simple C version that used qsort. Finally I
decided to make a more flexible C version where it was natural to choose
an ordering. I should probably have chosen
const char letters[] =
"ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVZXYZabcdefghijklmnopqrstuvzxyz";
to make all the version the same. To change the Haskell, replace "sort"
with "sortBy (comparing toLower)" and import Data.Ord to get the
comparing combinator. (It's a one-liner, as is a caseless compare
function, but the Haskell way is to use what's there).
They are still not the same though because the Haskell version is
Unicode aware (except for the simple sort).
