Τίτλος: Learn Haskell by Example
Περιγραφή: Learn Haskell by doing Haskell projects! In this book, you'll get practical experience writing Haskell code and applying functional programming to actual development challenges.In Learn Haskell by Example, you'll build your Haskell skills by working through hands-on challenges and conundrums. You'll learn to look at each project through a Haskell lens, and then solve it using features like lazy evaluation, immutable data structures, and monads.In Learn Haskell by Example you will learn how to:Use Haskell for daily programming tasksEffectively apply functional conceptsAvoid common beginner pitfalls of HaskellApply abstract concepts in the Haskell languageDebug and profile Haskell applicationsImprove the performance of Haskell applicationsHaskell is an amazing choice for applications that need an extra guarantee of safety, such as in smart contracts, data intensive applications, and large scale distributed systems. In this book, you'll see just how practical Haskell can be for creating programs by building your own engaging projects! Learn how to structure real-world applications, how to work with the Haskell tool chain effectively, and what to look out for when writing critical sections in the program's logic. Best of all, each project in this book is fully extensible and customizable so you can keep tinkering with your favorites!About the technologyProgrammers spend a lot of time debugging and refactoring code, reading comments and documentation, and trying to make sense out of complex designs. Haskell, a powerful, beautiful, and challenging functional programming language, promises a different path. By focusing your attention on simple functions, clearly-defined behaviors, and the right high-level abstractions, Haskell disallows the dangerous behaviors that usually lead to bugs and crashes.About the bookLearn Haskell by Example teaches you to build applications in Haskell by designing and coding fun and engaging projects. In this easy-to-follow guide, you'll create a domain specific language for music, an image processing library, and more! You'll learn Haskell from the ground-up with a focus on important concepts like function design, composition, and data immutability. Each project gives you a new insight into how to think in Haskell and helps you understand why many Haskell developers say they will never use another language again.What's insideUse Haskell for daily programming tasksPurely functional programmingAvoid common Haskell pitfallsAbout the readerFor readers who know how to program in an object-oriented language.About the authorPhilipp Hagenlocher is a full time Haskell developer, and the creator of the beloved Haskell for Imperative Programmers YouTube course.The technical editor on this book was Alexander Vershilov.Table of Contents1 Introduction2 Ancient secret keeping on modern machines3 Every line counts4 Line numbering tool5 Words and graphs6 Solving the ladder game7 Working with CSV files8 A tool for CSV9 Quick checks and random tests10 Digital music box11 Programming musical compositions12 Parsing pixel data13 Parallel image processing14 Files and exceptions15 Transformers for synchronizing16 JSON and SQL17 APIs using ServantAppendix A The Haskell ToolchainAppendix B Lazy evaluation
