Dear lovers of generalized abstract nonsense, this mail is directed at Haskell neophytes, novices, and advanced learners living near Augsburg, Germany; and at Haskell aficionados living all over the world but speaking German. On 2012-12-17, we -- the Curry Club Augsburg -- will organize a free all-day hands-on workshop on Haskell. Join us in the morning without having seen a single line of Haskell code and leave with working knowledge of Haskell's basics. If you already know a bit of Haskell, then learn your ways with Haskell's vast library ecosystem, how to structure bigger programs, how to check your code for correctness, and how to write parsers/websites/numerical simulations/user interfaces/two- and three-dimensional games. So that we don't exceed our capacity for individual mentoring during the workshop, a mandatory but nonbinding registration is necessary. [1] In case that you want to dive deeper into Haskell and other functional languages after having participated in the workshop, you are invited to join us at our monthly meetings. There are typically two to three talks on a wide range of topics of interest to Haskell programmers, such as latest news from the Kmettiverse, glimpses into formal logic and proof assistants like Isabelle, and introductions to the category-theoretic background of freer monads or to infinite-time Turing machines and the effective topos. All of our talks are recorded [2]. Our workshop documents are CC-licensed [3]. Feel free to copy them, modify them, and host Haskell workshops at other places!
