There are plenty of questions and, crucially, worked answers and hints.Haskell from the Very Beginning will appeal both to new programmers, and to experienced programmers eager to explore functional languages such as Haskell. It is suitable both for formal use within an undergraduate or graduate curriculum, and for the interested amateur.Chapters: Getting ReadyStarting OffNames and FunctionsUsing ScriptsCase by CaseMaking ListsTwo Ways of ThinkingSorting ThingsFunctions upon Functions upon FunctionsWhen Things Go WrongLooking Things UpMore with FunctionsNew Kinds of DataGrowing TreesThe Other NumbersBeing LazyIn and OutBuilding Bigger ProgramsThe Standard Prelude and BaseAnswers to QuestionsHints for QuestionsCoping with ErrorsIndex
