Just: I have to admit I feel totally lost, and the documentation seems to assume much more Haskell knowledge than I currently have. The types documentation is rather technical. Have I overlooked something? Any hints or advice on how to get started are highly appreciated. Best, Denis ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 3+ messages in thread

I assumed that could be a good place to start. Personally, I started by using Haskell to solve Project Euler exercises and then doing a lot(!) of copy'n'paste dabbling. Maybe I'm not the best person to ask. -- Albert Krewinkel GPG: 8eed e3e2 e8c5 6f18 81fe e836 388d c0b2 1f63 1124 ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 3+ messages in thread

The docs are written by people who have been Haskellers a long time and may have forgotten what is obvious and what is not!
