Hi,
is the above mentioned book still *the* authority on the subject?
I bought the book, read about 10 pages and then put it back on the shelf. Um. In my app I have to deal with 4 csv files, each between 5 - 10 mb, and some static data.
I had put all that data into an Sqlite3 database and used SQL on it. But, as the requirements keep changing the SQL becomes a bit messy. I guess we've all had that experience.
So I'm wondering if I will find clues in this book how to do my querying and handling of moderately large data in a more haskellish way and be able to drop the SQL.
Use the fine libraries on http://hackage.haskell.org. E.g. bytestring-csv then load that into a finite map? These days it is rare to have to roll your own new data structures... -- don
