greetings! i am very intrigued with haskell having acquired some experience in pascal, elisp, c, perl, mostly python and some sql. i've been going through various tutorials and the online real world haskell. i've also been reading through the haskell98 report at appropriate points. are there any recommended approaches for learning and studying haskell? -- In friendship, prad ... with you on your journey Towards Freedom http://www.towardsfreedom.com (website) Information, Inspiration, Imagination - truly a site for soaring I's

I think building a small, self-contained project that solves a problem
that you are interested in will be a nice compliment to the other
stuff that you're doing and will also leave you with something useful
in the end.

Prad, I'm new to Haskell as well and I have found doing the problems at Project Euler has been a good way to give one small tasks to learn Haskell with. Bryce On 06/18/2010 03:46 PM, Keith Sheppard wrote:

thank you bryce! i'm aware of project euler, but going there hadn't quite clicked till your post. thank you also keith for your idea. and edgar too who suggested the following in an email to my other post suggested course of action whose duplication i apologize for - i sent this in and realized i hadn't signed onto the list, unaware at the time that there was a mod who might put it through). edgar recommended a gentle intro to haskell which i've been enjoying since this evening especially since it works with haskell98 report. he also suggested category theory by awodey which i've downloaded and it really looks good for making many concepts understandable. -- In friendship, prad ... with you on your journey Towards Freedom http://www.towardsfreedom.com (website) Information, Inspiration, Imagination - truly a site for soaring I's
