<div class="PlainText">Dear Café, <br>
<br>
my monograph "Haskell for Mathematicians" has found a home online: <br>
<a href="https://hub.darcs.net/olf/haskell_for_mathematicians">https://hub.darcs.net/olf/haskell_for_mathematicians</a><br>
<br>
The intended audience of this course is mathematicians. <br>
While there are many (and excellent) introductions <br>
and complete books on Haskell available, most of them target<br>
programmers. <br>
But Haskell, despite being practically useful, <br>
is very good at modelling certain branches of mathematics. <br>
The aim of this course is to supplement the pen-and-paper mathematics <br>
with a more palpable, more interactive variant of exploring <br>
mathematical concepts. <br>
<br>
Each chapter contains exercises and is a self-contained literate<br>
haskell file that requires no package dependencies other than those<br>
included in a basic Haskell installation. <br>
<br>
Selected goodies you can find in Haskell for Mathematicians: <br>
* Constructive topology via domain semantics of Haskell<br>
* Let the compiler verify theorems of intuitionistic logic<br>
* Two implementations of exact real numbers: signed-digit and Conway's<br>
surreal numbers<br>
* Categories (of course!)<br>
* Detailed discussion of mathematical properties of monads such as<br>
commutative and affine monads<br>
* Detailed derivation of a probability measure monad that is actually<br>
affine (unlike sampling-based ones)<br>
<br>
Please use the darcs issue tracker for reporting typos, strange wording<br>
or incaccuracies. Also please don't hesitate to point me to existing<br>
work that might be worth mentioning or incorporating in the monograph. <br>
<br>
Cheers<br>
Olaf<br>
