Most Haskellers will point you at Learn You A Haskell For Great Good. http://learnyouahaskell.com/chapters http://learnyouahaskell.com/chapters If you go down this route: Once you start getting to chapters that don't have direct analogues in other languages, such as Functors, Applicative Functors, Monads, etc, slow down. A lot. I tried numerous times to just push through in the hopes that it would all come together, and I ended up giving up because I just dug myself further into a pit of nonunderstanding and frustration. Give yourself time to let the strange concepts sink in. Use them several times until you truly understand them. Then move on.
