| Introducing functional programming: Haskell programs, using Hugs, program syntax, expressions, standard libraries, modules, error and error messages. Data types: Basic types and definitions, tuples, lists, list comprehensions, polymorphism, overloading, guards. Defining functions: Pattern matching, lists and list patterns, primitive recursion over lists, function-level definitions, function composition, currying and uncurrying, local definitions. Generalization: Patterns of computation over lists, higher-order functions, folding and primitive recursion, splitting up lists. Checking types: Monomorphic type checking, polymorphic type checking, type checking and classes. Algebraic types: Introducing algebraic types, recursive algebraic types, polymorphic algebraic types. Abstract data types: Type representations, queues, design, simulation, search trees, sets, relations and graphs. Lazy programming: Lazy evaluation, calculation rules, data-directed programming, parsing expressions, infinite lists. Case studies: Huffman codes, coding and decoding, building Huffman trees. Programming with actions: The basics of input/output, iteration and recursion, the do construct, monads, monadic computation over trees. |
