Hello,
In terms of
"to become a great programmer, you need to read great programs"[1]
what are "great" programs written in Haskell (for your personal definition of great), which source code is freely available on hackage or somewhere else on the net?
I am not sure this is what you are looking for, but http://math.andrej.com/2007/09/28/seemingly-impossible-functional-programs/ contains some of the most ingenious code I have ever seen. Mind, it takes a lot of energy to read. Luke
I'm personally also interested in your definitions of great; for me, a great programs is defined by one of
* good and well-written documentation (literate Haskell helps a lot) * novel ideas to use functional programming * elegance * showing how functional programming can ease tasks that are difficult to achieve in an imperative style
Maybe we should create a Page on haskell.org (which I would do if I had write-access) mirroring the pages [2,3]?
Kind regards, Michael
