Can you folks recommend books that cover foundations of functional programming? Equivalents of Design Patterns by the gang of 4, but on FP?

#FunctionalProgramming #Haskel

BoE's Jonathan #Haskel prefers to keep interest rates steady amid labor market #inflation pressures. Despite a 60% market expectation for an August rate cut, Haskel urges caution. #UK inflation hit 2% in May, but wage growth could drive it up. #BoE #InterestRates #UKEconomy

@MindOfJoe If you like #FunctionalPrograming you might check out #rakulang. Every #haskel nerd that I know who has tried it has loved it.

Raku is an optionally functional scripting language. https://docs.raku.org/language/haskell-to-p6

#BoE policymakers #Greene, #Haskel and #Mann voted to raise interest rates by 0.25% points.

The friendship between Haskell and C. ~ Chris Martin (@chris__martin). #Haskel #FunctionalProgramming

Un #Google #Doodle attribuisce a #JerryLawson il titolo di "Padre del gioco su #cartuccia".
Così si fa partire la storia da metà, cancellando la creazione di #Kirschner e #Haskel, dipendenti di #ALPEX e di tutto quello che arrivò prima e dopo

Interesse in #linux (desktop draait linux sinds ca 1997), programmeren (op dit moment meestal #python, #haskel), databases (#oracle) en #IT in het algemeen.

Speel #gitaar (#guitar), (modern) klassiek en af en toe jazzy/Zuid Amerikaans (Bijv. Antonio Lauro; de Venozolaanse walsen).

@hpr @tuturto with another getting started in #haskel - TODAY ON #HPR !

> Time for arguments. Functional programming has many useful applications, but functional programming *languages* are universally bad

I assume you're drawing a distinction between multi-paradigm languages that support functional languages and "pure" functional languages.

If so, you're not talking about a very large group of languages
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_programming_languages_by_type#Pure

I basically read your toot as "#haskel is bad" :D

(in fairness, though, the #haskel naive solution is even prettier/closer to English:

fib :: Integer -> Integer
fib 0 = 0
fib 1 = 1
fib n = fib (n-1) + fib (n-2)

)

@anathem According to https://internals.rust-lang.org/t/mathematical-modulo-operator/5952, #rust #C and #java all use '%' for the remainder operation, but #haskel and #python use it for true modulo

Interesting / amusing statistic. #Erlang (rank 23) has become the highest scored functional language in the TIOBE programming language index for 2017.

https://www.tiobe.com/tiobe-index/

The functional runners up are: #Scala (32) and #Lisp (36).

Also remarkable is #Prolog (41) on number 5 almost heads up with 4th #F# (40)and before #Haskel (44) and #Clojure (50).

Mind you, as every programming language index is the TIOBE index only showing the result of certain searches on google, so more an indicator
