  • Lecture 2 on July 1. Covered: user-defined data types and motivations for using them, sum and product types, pattern matching.
  • Lab 1 on July 6. Covered: structure of a single-module project, ghc and some basic console I/O.
  • Lecture 3 on July 8. Covered: review of anonymous functions, type unification, and an introduction to Haskell's laziness.
  • Lecture 4 on July 13. Covered: weak head normal form (WHNF) and list functions.
  • Lecture 5 on July 16. Covered: type classes such as Eq, Ord, and Monoid.
  • Lecture 6 on July 20. Covered: higher-kinded types and type classes Functor, Applicative, and Monad.
