Hi all,
I've placed a gzip'd copy of the PostScript file of a paper
I've written in pub/haskell/incoming on nebula.cs.yale.edu. The paper
is called
"An Introduction to Haskell with Applications to Digital
Signal Processing."
This paper is being submitted to the ACM SAC '94 Special
Track on Programming Languages. The file name is
intro-dsp.ps.gz
While there are already excellent tutorials for Haskell (the
paper by Hudak and Fasel and the on-line Yale tutorial) and a nice
text book (Davie), I wanted a short tutorial for my electrical
engineering colleagues to entice them into exploring Haskell.
Therefore, the goal of this tutorial is to explain enough Haskell to
do some simple well-known digital signal processing (DSP) algorithms,
nothing more. In particular, it is not a replacement for any of the
existing tutorials, and leaves out many nice features of Haskell.
I welcome your feedback. I hope to create an expanded version
that includes many more interesting digital signal processing (DSP)
examples that I have done but haven't written up yet.
Special thanks go to Mark Jones of Yale for his careful review
and suggestions. In particular, Mark has shown me some elegant ways
to rewrite some of the DSP code (you are invited to do so too!).
Unfortunately, the length limitations and time constraints imposed by
the conference prevent me from incorporating most of his good ideas at
this time; no doubt future versions will benefit greatly from his
suggestions.
