Not so long ago, I had difficulties to understand functional dependecies.
Due to the (sometimes well-grounded) prejudgement of considering
research papers as an unfriendly and obscure source of information, I
stupidly ruled out reading Mark P Jones original paper. Then I learned
I was totally wrong, it is written in a friendly way, with lots of
examples, allowing me to finally understand how functional
dependencies work and what was the reason to introduce them:

Hi all,
i'm having some trouble 'getting' functional dependencies in the Haskell context (although my understanding of them in the context of relational database theory isn't that great either). Could someone please point me to an introduction / tutorial in this regard?
Thanks!
