I agree -- I think the most major learning curve problem (for me) was not learning haskell directly, it was un-learning all those patterns and workarounds and so on from imperative/OOP languages. Of course, the only problem with learning haskell first is that one will probably be mildly annoyed by most of the more common programming languages ;-) -Ross On Jul 14, 2009, at 6:22 AM, Bulat Ziganshin wrote:

Haskell is a wonderful language (my favorite language by far) but it is pretty difficult for a beginner.
i believe that Haskell is hard for intermediate programmers already knowing any imperative language, but for beginners it should be ideal
