I'm going through the excercises in this book and am stumped on the second one I tried. Does anyone have a hint on how to approach this problem?

Consider types as trees. You have to recurse into the tree, searching for the type you want to replace.

I hope it helps. If you're still stuck, I can give you my solution.

Thank you, this will be very helpful as I continue through; it is interesting comparing Ariel's Ch.2 solutions with my own. Thanks for the hints, they did help and I was very pleased when I completed the excercise on my own. -K
