Description
Learn Haskell by doing Haskell projects! For readers who know how to program in an object-orientated language.
Haskell Bookcamp will offer you practical experience writing Haskell code and applying functional programming to actual development challenges. You will build your Haskell skills by working through hands-on challenges and conundrums.
You will learn to look at each project through a Haskell lens and then solve it using features like lazy evaluation, immutable data structures, and monads. And the projects are interesting! You will take on writing a tool for working with CSV files, creating a domain-specific language for music, an image processing library using concurrency for high performance, and more!
Key features include:
Use Haskell for daily programming tasks
Effectively apply functional concepts
Avoid common beginner pitfalls of Haskell
Apply abstract concepts in the Haskell language
Debug and profile Haskell applications
Improve the performance of Haskell applications
About the technology Haskell delivers clean and safe code with mathematical precision and certainty. The pure functional coding language lets you use high-level abstractions to keep your code clean and easily readable, actively disallowing many dangerous behaviours that lead to bugs and crashes. These features make Haskell an amazing choice for applications that need an extra guarantee of safety, such as smart contracts, data-intensive applications, and large-scale distributed systems.
