Functional programming is an elegant, concise and powerful programming paradigm. This style encourages breaking up programming tasks into logical units that can be easily translated into provably correct code. Haskell brings together the best features of functional programming and is increasingly being used in the industry, both for building rapid prototypes and for actual deployment.INTENDED AUDIENCE: Any one interested in learning this languagePRE-REQUISITES: NILINDUSTRY SUPPORT: Would be useful in any industry requiring a good understanding of programming, algorithms and data structures.
