Is that book still worth checking out if you're read Learn You a Haskell or do they occupy the same sort of beginner niche? I'm almost done with that and was thinking I'd probably take a look at real world haskell next.
- gtani 13y agoHutton's and RWH are really good books, but haskell and GHC have moved a lot since they were published. Hutton uses hugs and doesn't discuss GHC extensions like OverlappingInstances and NoMonomorphismRestriction, which are pretty important, and RWH was written against 6.10, I believe. Since you can read RWH online, you should, but you should also check out the FPcomplete.com tutorials. Also Simon Thompson's 3rd edition Haskell book is good, probably the only thing I could call a gentle intro to haskell. also: http://shuklan.com/haskell/ http://shuklan.com/haskell/ __________ Finally, there's some ridiculous number of tutorials on the haskell wiki http://www.haskell.org/tutorial/ http://www.haskell.org/tutorial/ http://haskell.org/haskellwiki/Blow_your_mind http://haskell.org/haskellwiki/Blow_your_mind http://haskell.org/haskellwiki/Category:Tutorials http://haskell.org/haskellwiki/Category:Tutorials
