Download or read book Haskell Programming written by Emma William and published by . This book was released on 2021-07-22 with total page 274 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A balance of flexible and inflexible qualities make Haskell a fascinating programming language to learn and use. First, the Haskell programming language is not named after Eddie Haskell, the sneaky double-dealing neighbor kid in the ancient TV sitcom, Leave It To Beaver. Haskell is named after Haskell Brooks Curry, an American mathematician and logician. If you don't know, logicians create models to describe and define human reasoning, for example, problems in mathematics, computer science, and philosophy. Haskell's main work was in combinatory logic, a notation designed to eliminate the need for variables in mathematical logic. Combinatory logic captures many key features of computation and, as a result, is useful in computer science. Haskell has three programming languages named after him: Haskell, Brooks, and Curry. Haskell the language is built around functions, useful blocks of code that do specific tasks. They are called and used only when needed. Another interesting feature of functional languages like Haskell: functions are treated as values like integers (numbers) and strings. You can add a function to another function the way you can add an integer to an integer, 1 + 1 or 35 + 53. Perhaps the best way to describe this quality is a spreadsheet: in a cell in the spreadsheet, you can add numbers as well as a combination of functions to work on numbers. For example, you might specify each number in cells 1-10 be added up as a sum. In Excel, at least, you also can use SUMIF to look for a pattern in cells 1-10 and, if the pattern is found, perform an action on any cells with the pattern. What Makes Haskell Special? Technically, Haskell is a general-purpose functional programming language with non-strict semantics and strong static typing. The primary control construct is the function. (Say that fast ten times!) Here's what it means: - Every language has a strategy to evaluate when to process the input arguments used in a call to a function. The simplest strategy is to evaluate the input arguments passed then run the function with the arguments. Non-strict semantics means the input arguments are not evaluated unless the arguments passed into the function are used to evaluate what is in the body of the function. - Programming languages have rules to assign properties -- called a type -- to the components of the language: variables, functions, expressions, and modules. A type is a general description of possible values the variable, function, expression, or module can store. Typing helps minimize bugs, for example, when a calculation uses a string ("house" or "cat") instead of a number (2 or 3). Strong static typing evaluates the code before runtime, when the code is static and possibly as code is written. - The order in which statements, instructions and functions are evaluated and executed determines the results of any piece of code. Control constructs define the order of evaluation. Constructs use an initial keyword to flag the type of control structure used. Initial keywords might be "if" or "do" or "loop" while final keywords might be "end if" or "enddo" or "end loop". Instead of a final keyword, Haskell uses indentation level (tabs) or curly brackets, or a mix, to indicate the end of a control structure. Perhaps what makes Haskell special is how coders have to think when they use the language. Functional programming languages work in very different ways than imperative languages where the coder manages many low-level details of what happens in their code and when. While it is true all languages have things in common, it's also true languages are mostly functional or mostly imperative, the way people are mostly right handed or left handed. Except functional programming languages require a different way of thinking about software as you code

Download or read book Haskell Programming written by Robert Collins and published by Createspace Independent Publishing Platform. This book was released on 2016-12-09 with total page 90 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is a guide on how one can program in Haskell. Haskell is a pure functional programming language. The book begins by giving you a brief overview of the Haskell programming language so that you may know what it is. You are then guided on how to get started with Haskell programming. This involves setting up the Glasgow Haskell compiler which forms the heart of programming in Haskell. You are also guided on how to compile your Haskell scripts. Haskell marks the first programming language to introduce typeclasses into programming. This book explores this in detail. In Haskell, expressions are a common feature when writing scripts. This book guides you on how to use Haskell compiler so as to determine the kind of expression that you have written. Type variables are explored in detail. There are several typeclasses in Haskell. Most of these have been discussed in this book, and you are shown how to use each of those classes. Higher order functions are also examined. In Haskell, functions should only take one parameter. However, it is possible for one to override this mechanism and create a function with more than one parameter. This is usually done using curried functions. This book guides you on how to implement such functions in your code. This book guides you on how to implement the Lambda functions in Haskell. Input and output forms a significant part in any programming language. You are guided on how to obtain user data in Haskell and then provide them with output based on that input. The following topics are discussed in this book: - What is Haskell? - Getting Started - Types and Types and Typeclasses in Haskell - Higher Order Functions - Modules - Input and Output - Zippers
