Why can't you learn chinese very fast if you already know a handful of european languages ? The answer is the same : the underlying concepts are different.
Sadly, there is no easy shortcut to understand these concepts. The best that can be done (and it's hard enough already), is to make learning entertaining.
- alok-g 10y agoThe line of reasoning you have is correct as such, however, I find the analogy to be less than perfect. I do not need to be taught how to setup my computer for Haskell compilation or how to add numbers in Haskell to understand what is a monad.
