Building An Application With Functional Haskell

Building An Application With Functional Haskell

This video is specifically aimed at anybody who knows the essentials of the Haskell programming language and who is interested in moving onto developing real programs that will make use of file I/O, command-line parsers and various third-party packages.

Overview

Description
Explore your Haskell Ecosystem with real world applications.

Haskell is a powerful and well-designed functional programming language designed to work with complex data. Its emphasis on "purity" makes it easier to create rock-solid applications which stay maintainable and error-free even as they grow in scale.

This video is specifically aimed at anybody who knows the essentials of the Haskell programming language and who is interested in moving onto developing real programs that will make use of file I/O, command-line parsers and various third-party packages.We will start by describing the kind of application that the developer will write. We will then see how we will cover the kind of user interface to expect and the types of data processing and handling that the program will do. We will be seeing the different ways to store data in our filesystem and interact with it.

By the end of the course, we will have developed a fully-featured command-line utility program that can later be expanded by the developer in many ways

A short course is a learning programme that gives you combined content or specific skills training in a short period of time. Short courses often lean towards the more practical side of things and have less theory than a university course – this gives you a more hands-on experience within your field of interest.
