I took your solution and simplified it:
verify :: String -> Bool verify [] = True verify ('+':x:'+':xs) = verify $ '+':xs verify ('+':xs) = verify xs verify ('=':xs) = verify xs verify (_) = False
Also note that nothing in the question indicates the characters other than = and + can only be letters. Your version would accept 1 even though 1 is a character and it is not surrounded by +s.
=
+
1
This solution assumes that the only other character is =. No idea if you can assume this
The string will be composed of + and = symbols with several characters between them.
If I'm reading this correctly, it means that the characters are categorized into three categories:
So any character other than + and = must be surrounded by +s - which is exactly what my version checks.
