商品描述

Build powerful software solutions and develop proficiency in Haskell, from understanding the foundational principles through to mastering advanced functional programming concepts


Key Features:

  • Learn from an expert lecturer and researcher who knows all the ins and outs of Haskell
  • Develop a clear understanding of Haskell, from the basics through to advanced concepts
  • Get to grips with all the key functional programming techniques
  • Purchase of the print or Kindle book includes a free PDF eBook


Book Description:

With software systems reaching new levels of complexity and programmers aiming for the highest productivity levels, software developers and language designers are turning toward functional programming because of its powerful and mature abstraction mechanisms. This book will help you tap into this approach with Haskell, the programming language that has been leading the way in pure functional programming for over three decades.

The book begins by helping you get to grips with basic functions and algebraic datatypes, and gradually adds abstraction mechanisms and other powerful language features. Next, you'll explore recursion, formulate higher-order functions as reusable templates, and get the job done with laziness. As you advance, you'll learn how Haskell reconciliates its purity with the practical need for side effects and comes out stronger with a rich hierarchy of abstractions, such as functors, applicative functors, and monads. Finally, you'll understand how all these elements are combined in the design and implementation of custom domain-specific languages for tackling practical problems such as parsing, as well as the revolutionary functional technique of property-based testing.

By the end of this book, you'll have mastered the key concepts of functional programming and be able to develop idiomatic Haskell solutions.


What You Will Learn:

  • Write pure functions in all their forms - that is basic, recursive, and higher-order functions
  • Model your data using algebraic datatypes
  • Master Haskell's powerful type-class mechanism for ad hoc overloading
  • Find out how Haskell's laziness gets the job done
  • Reconcile Haskell's functional purity with side effects
  • Familiarize yourself with the functor, applicative functor, monad hierarchy
  • Discover how to solve problems with domain-specific languages
  • Find more bugs with Haskell's property-based testing approach


Who this book is for:

If you are a programmer looking to gain knowledge of Haskell who's never been properly introduced to functional programming, this book is for you. Basic experience with programming in a non-functional language is a prerequisite. This book also serves as an excellent guide for programmers with limited exposure to Haskell who want to deepen their understanding and foray further into the language.

商品描述(中文翻譯)

建立強大的軟體解決方案,並在 Haskell 中培養熟練技能,從理解基礎原則到掌握高級函數式編程概念。

主要特點:
- 從熟悉 Haskell 的專家講師和研究人員那裡學習,了解所有細節
- 從基礎到高級概念,建立對 Haskell 的清晰理解
- 掌握所有關鍵的函數式編程技巧
- 購買印刷版或 Kindle 版本的書籍,即可獲得免費的 PDF 電子書

書籍描述:
隨著軟體系統變得越來越複雜,並且程式設計師追求最高的生產力水平,軟體開發人員和語言設計師正轉向函數式編程,因為它具有強大且成熟的抽象機制。本書將幫助您使用 Haskell 採用這種方法,Haskell 是在純函數式編程領域領先三十多年的程式語言。

本書首先幫助您熟悉基本函數和代數資料類型,並逐步添加抽象機制和其他強大的語言特性。接下來,您將探索遞迴,將高階函數制定為可重複使用的模板,並使用惰性求值完成工作。隨著進一步的學習,您將了解 Haskell 如何將其純淨性與實際需求的副作用相調和,並通過豐富的抽象層次結構(如函子、應用函子和單子)更加強大。最後,您將了解所有這些元素如何結合在一起,設計和實現用於解決實際問題(如解析)的自定義領域特定語言,以及革命性的函數技術 - 屬性驅動測試。

通過閱讀本書,您將掌握函數式編程的關鍵概念,並能夠開發符合 Haskell 慣用法的解決方案。

學到什麼:
- 編寫各種形式的純函數 - 基本函數、遞迴函數和高階函數
- 使用代數資料類型建模資料
- 掌握 Haskell 強大的型別類別機制,進行特定需求的過載
- 了解 Haskell 的惰性求值如何完成工作
- 將 Haskell 的函數式純淨性與副作用調和
- 熟悉函子、應用函子和單子的層次結構
- 發現如何使用領域特定語言解決問題
- 使用 Haskell 的屬性驅動測試方法找到更多錯誤

適合對象:
如果您是一位程式設計師,希望了解 Haskell,但從未正式接觸過函數式編程,那麼本書適合您。需要具備非函數式語言的基本程式設計經驗。對於對 Haskell 了解有限且希望深入了解並進一步探索該語言的程式設計師,本書也是一本很好的指南。
