NEW BOOK ANNOUNCEMENT ***<br>
<br>
Programming in Haskell<br>
<br>
Graham Hutton, University
of Nottingham<br>
Cambridge University
Press, January 2007<br>
<br>
Paperback: ISBN-13: 9780521692694 | ISBN-10: 0521692695<br>

<br>
<br>
DESCRIPTION<br>
<br>
Haskell is one of the leading languages for
teaching functional<br>
programming, enabling students to write simpler and cleaner code,
and<br>
to learn how to structure and reason
about programs. This<br>
introduction is ideal for beginners: it
requires no previous<br>
programming experience and all concepts are explained
from first<br>
principles via carefully chosen examples. Each
chapter includes<br>
exercises that range from the straightforward to extended
projects,<br>
plus suggestions for further reading on more advanced
topics. The<br>
presentation is clear and simple, and benefits
from having been<br>
refined and class-tested over several years.<br>
<br>
Features include: freely accessible powerpoint
slides for each<br>
chapter; solutions to exercises, and examination
questions (with<br>
solutions) available to instructors; downloadable code that's
fully<br>
compliant with the latest Haskell release.<br>
<br>
