Beginners Guide to Haskell? [closed]

Answer 1

Yet Another Haskell Tutorial (PDF) worked for me.

Edit: Updike points out that the text of YAHT has been folded into the Haksell Wikibooks. The PDF is still useful if you (like me) prefer to print out and read on paper.

BTW I have also read A Gentle Introduction To Haskell (also available as PDF). I will definitely not recommend this for beginners. It is only gentle compared to the Haskell Report. However it is a good reference when you have a solid understanding of the language.

Answer 2

A rather late response but I thoroughly enjoyed reading from Learn You A Haskell available online as well as a book.

Answer 3

Strange that nobody suggested Real World Haskell. That's IMHO the best Haskell book you currently can get you can get it for on or offline reading.

Answer 4

There is also a nice lecture series from the RWTH Achen.

• here you will find exams and exercises (possibly in German)
• and here are the recordings of the solutions

I got all of this info from the Haskell Wiki's Video presentations page.

Answer 5

Once you get past the beginning stages, I would highly recommend reading Real World Haskell.

Answer 6

This is where I started. haskell.org
