About the Book
As opposed to other languages, Haskell's base library is quite slim. However, for many tasks there's usually one community-blessed library. Unraveling that landscape is one of the main thresholds to move from beginner Haskeller to practitioner. This book introduces these "standard libraries", organized by topic. More than 20 chapters provide examples of most common tasks in daily programming, solved using the power of the Haskell ecosystem.
