Course Overview

Functional programming is a problem-solving paradigm that differs drastically from the imperative programming style of languages like C++ or Java. While functional programming principles have invaded most modern programming languages to some degree, there is no language that embraces this paradigm quite as Haskell does. As a result, Haskell code can reach a level of expressiveness, safety, and elegance that is difficult to achieve in other programming languages. This course will introduce you to the core c...Show More
