How to run a sequence of operations (functions) in Haskell?

Let's say I have a list of values to which I want to apply a sequence of operations until I get a final result:

[0, 1, 2]

firstOperation xs = map (+1) xs
secondOperation xs = filter even xs
thirdOperation xs = sum xs

Although I am sure there are开发者_高级运维 other better ways to handle this, the only one I currently know is to define a function that calls all these functions nested one inside another:

runAllOperations xs = thirdOperation (secondOperation (firstOperation xs))

but this is both ugly and raises the problem that if I have 10 operations, turns this bit of code into a maintanance nightmare.

What is the correct way of implementing something of the kind here? Keep in mind the example I gave above is just a oversimplification of what I am facing on my current project.


. or $ are way more readable than ( and )

runAllOperations xs = thirdOperation $ secondOperation $ firstOperation xs

or

runAllOperations = thirdOperation . secondOperation . firstOperation


If you can make a list of all the operations, you can then fold the composition operator over that list:

foldr (.) id fns

Then you can apply the result of that to the initial values.

Though you might need to apply a final reduction step separately.
