What is the best beginner book to Haskell?
Why would you want to learn an obsolete esoteric language?
Tomorrow go find the Dive into python on the web. Don't fucking worry if you get nothing at first. Then navigate to python.org and learn the standard library by bloody hard. Then grind, and I meant it, bitch, you grind the pythonian coding convention PEP8 until you know it by rote. When you write your first own imageboard, picking up html+css in the process, time to download and study any python-based asynchronous web-server. I recommend Tornado or Gevent. By the time you alter your imageboard so that it can at least manage giving off 5k request per second, you'd be ready to move on: the intriguing world of high-load programming at your feed. Apache Hadoop, ultrafast asynchronous key-value storages, MapReduce. It won't be long for you to laugh at the fuck ups of NEETs and poor Slavs that live off by sucking cocks and no longer than in half a year your income will grow to the point when any bitch will get wet from only a mention of your salary.

Why is it an obsolete language? I want to learn about type systems and how category theory applies to it.

no one codes here

Learn You a Haskell. the title is stupid but the educational content is great. pacing is fantastic. and for $0 the price can't be beat.

Thanks anon.
>>54925814
this guy, this fucking guy.
Are you the same anon, posting the same reply in every thread?
I like you. And you're pretty much right about that.
But don't you have something better to do thank posting no one codes here on malasyan turnstile management forums?
Here, this saved me from boredom last night, I hope you like it (pic related, just look it up)

Is it pasta?
Actually, its pretty solid advice

LYAH lacks exercises, which are really necessary to make some of this stuff stick, so maybe supplement it with the NICTA course:

Brent Yorgey's CIS194 Haskell lectures are also a fantastic source of content, and freely available online:

shut up bitch!

Amen.

Read through Learn You A Haskell to get a feel for it,
but afterwords use Real World Haskell to learn it.
The better question is why you would want to learn it.
Lisp is the only functional programming language worth using,
and even that is super niche and generally unusable.

website looks unprofessional as fuck. honestly, i don't say this to be memeing, but it looks like something a redditor would think is really neat
