First steps of programming in [[Language:Haskell|]]

== Description ==

Functional programming in [[Language:Haskell]] is introduced in this lecture. First, basic programming concepts (such as [[program]] and [[algorithm]]) are briefly rehashed. Then, key concepts of functional programming (such as [[function]], [[recursion]], [[list]], and [[pattern matching]]) are discussed. Simple program examples are used for illustrations (such as the [[factorial]] function and [[linear search]]). Eventually, a major running example of this course is introduced: the so-called [[system:Company]], which is essentially a trivial information system for human resource management.
