This is the first of a series of articles that deep dives a few very powerful type classes that every functional programmer should know. For example,Monoid, Functor, Applicative, etc. These are indeed so functional that they are prevalent in Haskell production code. We explain them with examples in Haskell. This…
Hylomorphism Explained
This is the ninth of a series of articles that illustrates functional programming (FP) concepts. As you go through these articles with code examples in Haskell (a very popular FP language), you gain the grounding for picking up any FP language quickly. Why should you care about FP? See this…
