Merging two lists in Haskell

Question

Can't figure out how to merge two lists in the following way in Haskell:

INPUT:  [1,2,3,4,5] [11,12,13,14]

OUTPUT: [1,11,2,12,3,13,4,14,5]

Answer 1

I want to propose a lazier version of merge:

merge [] ys = ys
merge (x:xs) ys = x:merge ys xs

For one example use case you can check a recent SO question about lazy generation of combinations.
The version in the accepted answer is unnecessarily strict in the second argument and that's what is improved here.
