Is that really language agnostic? I don't know how you could follow along with it without knowing some ML or Haskell.
- mtalantikite 9y agoYeah, I had a hard time getting into that book the first time around due to a lack of ML knowledge. Once you have some ML or Haskell I'd say it's worth a read.
- weavie 9y agoYou would need a cursory knowledge of ml to be able to understand it, but you can implement the examples in plenty of other languages. The principles taught are fairly universal. (At least for the first half, I haven't made it beyond that yet...)
