I get it though. The concepts are so advanced that you have to internalize the concept first before it can even be used.
- tome 7y agoActually not. It's very hard to internalize the concepts before you've used them!
- crimsonalucard 7y agoYes, I get it, but for Haskell the concepts are so abstract you need to internalize the concept before you start using it.
