In this book, you'll get practical experience writing Haskell code and applying functional programming to actual development challenges.\u003c\/b\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eIn \u003ci\u003eLearn Haskell by Example\u003c\/i\u003e, you'll build your Haskell skills by working through hands-on challenges and conundrums. You'll learn to look at each project through a Haskell lens, and then solve it using features like lazy evaluation, immutable data structures, and monads. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eIn \u003ci\u003eLearn Haskell by Example\u003c\/i\u003e you will learn how to: \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e- Use Haskell for daily programming tasks\u003cbr\u003e - Effectively apply functional concepts\u003cbr\u003e - Avoid common beginner pitfalls of Haskell\u003cbr\u003e - Apply abstract concepts in the Haskell language\u003cbr\u003e - Debug and profile Haskell applications\u003cbr\u003e - Improve the performance of Haskell applications \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e Haskell is an amazing choice for applications that need an extra guarantee of safety, such as in smart contracts, data intensive applications, and large scale distributed systems. In this book, you'll see just how practical Haskell can be for creating programs by building your own engaging projects! Learn how to structure real-world applications, how to work with the Haskell tool chain effectively, and what to look out for when writing critical sections in the program's logic. Best of all, each project in this book is fully extensible and customizable so you can keep tinkering with your favorites! \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e Purchase of the print book includes a free eBook in PDF, Kindle, and ePub formats from Manning Publications. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cb\u003eAbout the technology\u003c\/b\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e Programmers spend a lot of time debugging and refactoring code, reading comments and documentation, and trying to make sense out of complex designs. Haskell, a powerful, beautiful, and challenging functional programming language, promises a different path. By focusing your attention on simple functions, clearly-defined behaviors, and the right high-level abstractions, Haskell disallows the dangerous behaviors that usually lead to bugs and crashes. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cb\u003eAbout the book\u003c\/b\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003ci\u003eLearn Haskell by Example\u003c\/i\u003e teaches you to build applications in Haskell by designing and coding fun and engaging projects. In this easy-to-follow guide, you'll create a domain specific language for music, an image processing library, and more! You'll learn Haskell from the ground-up with a focus on important concepts like function design, composition, and data immutability. Each project gives you a new insight into how to think in Haskell and helps you understand why many Haskell developers say they will never use another language again. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cb\u003eWhat's inside\u003c\/b\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e- Use Haskell for daily programming tasks\u003cbr\u003e - Purely functional programming\u003cbr\u003e - Avoid common Haskell pitfalls \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cb\u003eAbout the reader\u003c\/b\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e For readers who know how to program in an object-oriented language. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cb\u003eAbout the author\u003c\/b\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cb\u003ePhilipp Hagenlocher\u003c\/b\u003e is a full time Haskell developer, and the creator of the beloved Haskell for Imperative Programmers YouTube course. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eThe technical editor on this book was \u003cb\u003eAlexander Vershilov\u003c\/b\u003e. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cb\u003eTable of Contents\u003c\/b\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e 1 Introduction\u003cbr\u003e 2 Ancient secret keeping on modern machines\u003cbr\u003e 3 Every line counts\u003cbr\u003e 4 Line numbering tool\u003cbr\u003e 5 Words and graphs\u003cbr\u003e 6 Solving the ladder game\u003cbr\u003e 7 Working with CSV files\u003cbr\u003e 8 A tool for CSV\u003cbr\u003e 9 Quick checks and random tests\u003cbr\u003e 10 Digital music box\u003cbr\u003e 11 Programming musical compositions\u003cbr\u003e 12 Parsing pixel data\u003cbr\u003e 13 Parallel image processing\u003cbr\u003e 14 Files and exceptions\u003cbr\u003e 15 Transformers for synchronizing\u003cbr\u003e 16 JSON and SQL\u003cbr\u003e 17 APIs using Servant\u003cbr\u003e Appendix A The Haskell Toolchain\u003cbr\u003e Appendix B Lazy evaluation\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAbout the Author\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePhilipp Hagenlocher\u003c\/strong\u003e is a full-time Haskell developer working on distributed systems that need absolute program correctness.
