Great. It was an idea that came up in #haskell this morning: 19:43:28 <geezusfreeek> any good articles/tutorials/whatever about how to best go about actually designing a program in haskell (or functional languages in general)? 19:48:09 <geezusfreeek> i have a mostly OO background, and i want to avoid tainting my functional prog ramming experience with the OO design patterns and habits i have 19:48:31 <geezusfreeek> and it's already clear to me that most of my habits are going to lead me straight to confusion 19:54:48 <dons> geezusfreeek: possibly some of the functional pearl, and design-ish, papers from ICFP would be a good read 19:55:10 <dons> basically replacing going to oxford or chalmers, and having Richard Bird teach you how to think like a lambda :-) So, what better way to steep yourself in the design cult(ure) of the lambda, than to go through the pearls. :-) -- Don _______________________________________________ Haskell-Cafe mailing list Haskell-Cafe@haskell.org http://www.haskell.org/mailman/listinfo/haskell-cafe
