New subject: Pointers in Haskell??

This book is already on-line at http://research.microsoft.com/Users/simonpj/Papers/student.ps.gz (It was noted on the "Books and Tutorials" link from haskell.org, which is usually the best place to start looking for something Haskell.)

That's a useful resource too, but it's not the book that the first poster mentioned. The earlier book was more advanced, more research-oriented, and (in most respects) covered more material than the later one (which was intended as an executable tutorial). Personally, I honestly don't think I would have been able to put Gofer together without many hours poring over Simon's 1987 book. (Noting that I'm getting quite old (:-), perhaps I should explain that Gofer was the predecessor of Hugs ...) I'll have to take extra special care of my well-worn copy now that the book is out of print! All the best, Mark

Just for the record: this wonderful (really!) book has others authors as well: Philip Wadler, Peter Hancock,... contributed, writing some chapters. Jerzy Karczmarczuk Caen, France PS. The Haskell mailing group received - as you know - an ad:

LIL DRIVER GOLF CART "The Perfect Holiday Gift" for the 3 to 7 year old golfer!

Would somebody care writing to those people asking them to correct the name "golfer" which has a redundant "l"?
