how to cite the (revised) Haskell Report
Hello, how should one cite the revised Haskell Report? As "Journal of Functional Programming 13(1)" or "Haskell 98 Language and Libraries, The Revised Report"? Who should be mentioned as the editor? According to http://www.cambridge.org/uk/journals/JFP/, Paul Hudak is the editor of the Journal of Functional Programming but Simon Peyton Jones is the editor of the revised Haskell Report. Would someone be able to post a sample BibTeX entry? That would be nice. Best wishes, Wolfgang

I cite it like this: @article{haskell98, author = {Simon {Peyton Jones} and others}, title = {The {Haskell} 98 Language and Libraries: The Revised Report}, journal = {Journal of Functional Programming}, volume = 13, number = 1, pages = {0--255}, month = {Jan}, year = 2003, note = {\url{http://www.haskell.org/definition/}}, }
Alternatively, you could cite the book version: @book{Haskell98Book ,editor={Simon Peyton Jones} ,title={Haskell 98 Language and Libraries -- The Revised Report} ,publisher={Cambridge University Press} ,address={Cambridge, England} ,year=2003 } Ben Horsfall wrote:

Thank you (and the others too). Well, I think you should use "Peyton Jones, Simon" instead of "Simon Peyton Jones" because in the latter case, Peyton would be considered a middle name. Best wishes, Wolfgang

Hello, could you please give a more specific page range? There is a situation similar to the Haskell Report with the current Scheme report. The Scheme report was published as volume 11, issue 1 of Higher-Order and Symbolic Computation. The corresponding entry on http://www.informatik.uni-trier.de/~ley/db/journals/lisp/lisp11.html exactly specifies the page range as 7-105 although the Scheme report is said to cover the whole issue. Alas, I couldn't find a page similar to the one above for the Journal of Functional Programming. The content information which should be available from http://www.cambridge.org/uk/journals/JFP/ is broken. Clicking on "Contents (1997 onwards)" gives me an empty text file with the title "bladerunner". :-o Best wishes, Wolfgang

could you please give a more specific page range? These are the pages of the journal occupied by the report.

Page 0? What is that? Is the whole Journal issue equivalent to the Haskell Report? At least in the Scheme report case there seemed to be some pages of the Journal which don't actually belong to the report. Best wishes, Wolfgang

OK, I admit there is no page zero (although the JFP contents page gives pages 0--255, which is where the information in my bibtex file must have come from); you've forced me to look at the journal version again - I usually use the HTML. In place of page zero there should be pages i--xii, which contain the report's table of contents and preface. Thus pages = {i--xii,1--255}. Also, I give author = {... and others} rather than editor only because bibtex will not display an editor in an @article citation. Ben
