Sum Scan With Tail Recursion Assignment
Motivation
Gain experience with converting from head recursion to tail recursion with a twist. Taking the standard simple approach would leave with you with a result opposite of the desired order.
A Sting In the Tail
Everything does not always goes perfectly smoothly on the jouney to the land of tail recursion. Some operations are transitive (for example: + and *) and they can be performed in either order. This is not the case for list construction with ::.
You will likely be left to decide between taking:
- the dreaded road that leads to n^2 of concatenation via @, or
- going the way of the Jeholornis.
