I think the reason I hated that module is that I couldn't see what use it had. I understood that it was to teach functional programming, but I had already been doing that before I went to uni. That was another thing I couldn't understand! People doing computer related courses that hadn't done any IT subjects at a'level or gcse. The mind boggles.
