  • But are you allowed to re-let variable myBook in Haskell? That's what the question is asking, i.e. can a local variable be updated. Commented Feb 22, 2018 at 18:44
  • @Andreas, no, in haskell it's definitely impossible. Here myBook and myBook' are functions definitions, not data structure as java class is. Commented Feb 22, 2018 at 19:06
