Hello!
I've completed reading of Yet another Haskell tutorial and now want to learn
Haskell more thoroughly.
I'm searching for a book, in which the features of Haskell are explained in
the form of examples and exercises (like in the book Clause and Effect on
PROLOG).
My purpose in exploring
Hello all,
A question on that most elusive of subjects performance in haskell (GHC 6.2)
Using the GHC profiler, I obtained the following analysis results (i
hope the code doesn't come out too ugly by mail):
total time =0.92 secs (46 ticks @ 20 ms)
total alloc =
If you really want to find out if Haskell is for you, you need to try
and do things you already know how to do in the other languages.
For this reason I found that Algorithms: A Functional Programming
Approach was great for showing me where Haskell excelled and why it
was the language for me.
Thanks for your suggestions!
As far as learning about Haskell, I have learnt the most from doing the
Implementing a functional language tutorial. However, if you are not
interested in compilers, this would not be a good option.
I am primarily interested in using Haskell for everyday work, which

Matriods are generalization of vector spaces. Basically, they are
defined by a set of linear dependence axioms and basis exchange
properties. Oxley's Matriod Theory is the standard reference. There
are a multitude of equivalent

I'm not sure this is a good idea, because GHC really needs non-blocking
can't GHC do this using the threaded RTS?

kinds of streams: files, pipes, arrays (private memory), and sockets.
Haskell is statically typed and lacks subsumption. This means that
even though streams are unified by using a class, code which

Hi,
I have 3 Haskell books, The Craft of Functional Programming (Thompson),
Introduction to Functional Programming Using Haskell (Bird) and The Haskell
School of Expression (Hudak).
I recommend Thompson's book because it contains good explanations and lots
of exercises, although the book is

Do you know if there are solutions to exersises avaialable somewhere?
Have you gone through
