Re: [Haskell-beginners] REPL with visualisation

      Great to hear people still play with programming - I should do that more
myself! ;-)

Racket has a very nice REPL that lets you display nontextual data, such
as the plot utils for graphs here:
http://docs.racket-lang.org/plot/utils.html
Would be great to get something like this for Haskell.

Otherwise for the Mandelbrot set I'd imagine you could use the
"diagrams" package to specify the graphics using Haskell and then have
it rendered into a file that you load up into browser.

Then you can change the spec, re-generate file and reload in the browser.

Ondrej,
It has just text. Have you seen this though...?
The hackage page...
https://hackage.haskell.org/package/vacuum
and a YouTube video...
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=X4-212uMgy8
That might be of interest?!
All the best,
Sean.

When I was learning it (still learning!) I just use emacs.
Top half is my code window, bottom half is a standard "M-x shell"
    then run ghci. It works. I've tried to use leksah but it is a
    little "busy" and doesn't really help to keep things simple when
    you are still learning, IMO anyway.

        iHaskell (jupyter/ipython + haskell kernel - don't try to

        native libraries) is quite usable. There is great looking
        haskellformac (paid) software but as the name suggests it's OS

Hi
            Just curious: is there some recommended "first choice"
            combination of REPL and libs for (Apple) Swift styled
            "playgrounds"? (I have just seen a fractalish coffee spill
            and remembered that I have not implemented Mandelbrot set
            since high school and Pascal days and maybe it's time to
            be a bit childish again).
            Thanks
                Ondra 'satai' Nekola
