Yes, thanks, but those internet pages don't read that well on the train to work ;)
For example, for the brand new F# language I bought the book http://www.amazon.com/Foundations-F-Robert-Pickering/dp/1590597575 which covers almost everything you need to create real-world applications, from GUIs to databases to 2D/3D graphics to custom languages. Okay, it's a bit buggy here and there, but it's a great overview. Ah well, I'll abuse the printer at work to print out those internet pages then; somehow reading from a computer screen just doesn't work for me. -----Original Message----- From: Donald Bruce Stewart [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Friday, July 06, 2007 11:22 To: peterv Cc: 'Bulat Ziganshin'; [email protected] Subject: Re: [Haskell-cafe] RE: Modern Haskell books (was "Re: A very nontrivial parser") dons: > bf3: > > > but afair you don't yet have too much experience even with H98 > > > language? from my POV, H98 as is useful for learning, but not for real > > > apps. there is wide common subset of GHC and Hugs language extensions > > > and this set (with exception for FD) will probably become new Haskell' > > > standard > > > > The problem I face is that most (all?)
