Haskell Practice

I'm following along on an NYU Shanghai's Functional Programming course taught by Professor Paul Mellies. We're using Haskell.

I like it so far because it stimulates my brain to think in a rather new way compared to how I've been oriented to think for the past 6 years of programming.

The slides are good to get an overview-level understanding of the material but I've been learning the most from doing the homework and reading through this amazing instruction book online: Learn You a Haskell.
