Great intro to Haskell for Javascript devs

So many languages, so little time to learn. Right now my learning queue goes like Rust -> Clojure -> Haskell -> programming endgame?. Would've probably started Haskell by now if it were more popular and man do I wish Haskell were more popular.

Clojure is great. I'm a year into it and I love its simplicity. it takes a bit more thought to create an "elegant" solution to problems if you're from an imperative/OOP background, but once that kind of thinking becomes second-nature, the code really does read very well

It's pretty popular, but go learn PureScript instead which works on node and the browser

javascript will never be fixed, that's the beauty of it.

​@@hashtag9990its impossible to change js cuz you cant make any breaking changes

Got a notification from this channel and I was like "who is this girl?, Why I'm subscribe to her?, Why does she have a better voice than I?" Until I realized the channel theme 😛...

Lol the lodash description for curry is absolutely horrendous

can you explain the a -> a -> a I still don't understand

related to partial application (a 2 param fun is in fact a 1 param fun returning a function)

The Haskell: a -> a -> a add x y = x + y In plain JS terms that would be like: function add(x) { return (y) => x + y; } And calling it would be like: const x = add(1)(2) In this case 'a' refers to the type for the values, so x, y, z should all be the same type for it to be equivalent to "a -> a -> a" meaning const x = add("Hello ")("Currying") Would also fit that function type

I hope nobody considers "true + 1 = 2" to be a "feature". That language broken, yo.

i watched the first 2 minutes of this and i don't really understand it at all. maybe it's because i only know python and scratch.

come back to this video next year, im sure it'll make a whole lot more sense then. i have a whole playlist of videos that i return to every single year and it's testament to my learning that i always find something new in them.

I'm not fluent in English, so I use Google Translate. Thanks for the interesting video. I'm just starting to re-learn category theory using Haskell and Javascript. I wrote a simple program about function composition, associativity, identity morphism, and unit rate. Javascript f = x => { return (x + 2) } g = x => { return (x * 2) } h = x => { return (x ** 2) } i = x => { return h( g(x)) } j = x => { return g( f(x)) } id = x => { return x } c1 = x => { return h(g(f(x))) } c4 = x => { return i ( f(x) ) } c5 = x => { return h(j (x) ) } c1 (3) => c4 (3) => c5 (3) => 100 c1(id(3)) => c4(id(3)) => c5(id(3)) => 100 id(c1(3)) => id(c4(3)) => id(c6(3)) => 100 Haskell f = \x -> x + 2 g = \x -> x * 2 h = \x -> x ^ 2 i = h . g j = g . f c1 = h . g . f c2 = (h . g) . f c3 = h . (g . f) c4 = i . f c5 = h . j c1 3 => c2 3 => c3 3 => c4 3 => c5 3 => 100 Since Haskell provides id (identity function) as standard, we omit the explanation. The result is similar to Javascript. It was so timely and I was so happy that I commented.
