The Little Haskeller

About the Book

This book is very different from usual programming books. It is written in the form of a dialog in which all the questions and answers focus on the next learning step, allowing for the reader to take all the time needed to understand a Haskell construct and to try it before going further. The reader's knowledge of the programming language is thus based on practice, through the use of examples rather than abstract explanations.
