Functional data structures in Haskell

== Description ==

We look at functional programming techniques for implementing abstract data types and concrete data structures. In particular, we want to get a basic understanding of using familiar data types such as stacks or heaps without relying on side effects and thereby providing a form of persistence. To this end, we leverage so-called functional data structures which exploit (path) copying to achieve persistence while potentially leveraging lazy evaluation to achieve competitive performance (complexity).
