# Triangle Determine if a triangle is equilateral, isosceles, or scalene. An _equilateral_ triangle has all three sides the same length.
An _isosceles_ triangle has at least two sides the same length. (It is sometimes specified as having exactly two sides the same length, but for the purposes of this exercise we'll say at least two.)
A _scalene_ triangle has all sides of different lengths. ## Note For a shape to be a triangle at all, all sides have to be of length > 0, and the sum of the lengths of any two sides must be greater than or equal to the length of the third side. See [Triangle Inequality](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Triangle_inequality). ## Dig Deeper The case where the sum of the lengths of two sides _equals_ that of the third is known as a _degenerate_ triangle - it has zero area and looks like a single line. Feel free to add your own code/tests to check for degenerate triangles. ## Getting Started For installation and learning resources, refer to the [exercism help page](http://exercism.io/languages/haskell). ## Running the tests To run the test suite, execute the following command: ```bash stack test ``` #### If you get an error message like this... ``` No .cabal file found in directory ``` You are probably running an old stack version and need to upgrade it. #### Otherwise, if you get an error message like this... ``` No compiler found, expected minor version match with... Try running "stack setup" to install the correct GHC... ``` Just do as it says and it will download and install the correct compiler version: ```bash stack setup ``` ## Running *GHCi* If you want to play with your solution in GHCi, just run the command: ```bash stack ghci ``` ## Feedback, Issues, Pull Requests The [exercism/haskell](https://github.com/exercism/haskell) repository on GitHub is the home for all of the Haskell exercises.
