Effective Haskell: Example doesn’t work (page 8)
Title: Effective Haskell - Example doesn’t work (page 8)
Middle of page 8 says: "Create a new Main.hs and copy the example below to get started.
module Main where
makeGreeting salutation person =
salutation <> " " <> person
Now load up ghci and test out…"
If I load this file into ghci (or try to compile it), I get errors: "The IO action ‘main’ is not defined in the module ‘Main’.
The text shown is not complete as it doesn’t include a main module. The reader is left to figure out why it doesn’t work.

Thanks for pointing out that bug! It will be fixed as soon as the next beta update is released.
Until then, the correct example should be:
module Main where
makeGreeting salutation person =
salutation <> " " <> person
main = print "no salutation to show yet"
