Dict.foldr documentation possibly incorrect

Confidenceman02 opened this issue · 2 comments

In the foldr documentation the function getAges
it says it returns a List String.

However in the commented return value we have:

-- getAges users == [28,19,33]

Which would suggest the actual return type is List Int.

It's fairly harmless but might be enough to cause folks a head scratch moment like it did for me.

We can either type the example code as List Int or change the commented return code as:

-- getAges users == ["28","19","33"]

Thanks for reporting this! To set expectations:
