Is there any link that counts the use of all functions in all packages in Hackage and lists them by frequency or by other stats?
I'm still new to haskell but I've been working my way through tons and tons of tutorials and books. It would be very helpful to target in on the current reality of the most critical functions.
Hello Casey, You can use Hoogle http://www.haskell.org/hoogle/ to get information about a particular function or to find a function by a part of it's signature. While it's helpful to carefully study some basic modules like Prelude function by function, I don't think it's a good approach in general. I suggest you to look for reviews of popular modules. Personally, I found "24 days of hackage" http://ocharles.org.uk/blog/ to be quite informative. I wouldn't argue it's a best source for a beginner, but at least it gives quite a broad perspective.
