I began learning Haskell 9 months ago. I still consider myself a beginner, but I'm progressing towards more advanced concepts. I read scientific papers (simpler ones) and books about Haskell and functional programming. Right now I'm reading Pearls of Functional Algorithm Design, Introduction to Functional Programming, Implementation of Functional Programming Languages and Real World Haskell. RWH is causing me a lot of trouble though. This leads me to frustration because book covers rather basic material. I just spent another 1,5 hour reading chapter 10 again and trying to understand how presented parsing functions work. Even if I am barely able to grasp what is going on I feel that I wouldn't know how to write such code by myself. Am I the only one having such problems with RWH? Jan
