| | editorial | Haskell Hello! Today, for your edification, is an entire issue devoted to Haskell. Haskell is a very interesting language that has a lot in common with Clojure. The main differences are that Haskell is statically typed and statically compiled. It is over 20 years old and is starting to see a lot of use outside of academia. But its long incubation period has blessed Haskell with what is perhaps the most advanced compiler in the world. Clojure is on a different course from Haskell, but it has a lot to learn from Haskell as well. In fact, it already has borrowed a lot of concepts from Haskell. Enjoy!

do or do not, there is no try | Try Haskell A Haskell prompt in the browser. Use it to try it out before you install. | |
peek inside | AwesomePrelude (video) A peek into discussions about Haskell and its type system. | |
double-click experience | The Haskell Platform The easiest way to get up and running with Haskell. It comes with the Glasgow Haskell Compiler and many libraries. | |
academics | Haskell Research Papers A huge, organized list of Haskell research papers. Haskell is very actively researched and a lot of the research winds up in the main compilers. Especially check out the "Top 10" and anything by Wadler. | |
