It s all in the name: Learn You a Haskell for Great Good! is a hilarious, illustrated guide to this complex functional language. Packed with the author s original artwork, pop culture references, and most importantly, useful example code, this book teaches functional fundamentals in a way you never thought possible. You ll start with the kid stuff: basic syntax, recursion, types and type classes. Then once you ve got the basics down, the real black belt master-class begins: you ll learn to use applicative functors, monads, zippers, and all the other mythical Haskell constructs you ve only read about in storybooks.As you work your way through the author s imaginative (and occasionally insane) examples, you ll learn to: * Laugh in the face of side effects as you wield purely functional programming techniques * Use the magic of Haskell s "laziness" to play with infinite sets of data * Organize your programs by creating your own types, type classes, and modules * Use Haskell s elegant input/output system to share the genius of your programs with the outside world Short of eating the author s brain, you will not find a better way to learn this powerful language than reading Learn You a Haskell for Great Good!
