Hello Andy,

i had an idea of creating Haskell cookbook by repeating the Perl's
one, but i think, that the some questions complex for Perl would be
trivial for Haskell, and vice versa

i can recommend you two books for beginners:

"Gentle inroduction to Haskell" http://www.haskell.org/tutorial/haskell-98-tutorial-html.tar.gz
"Yet Another Haskell Tutorial" by Hal Daume III http://www.isi.edu/~hdaume/htut/tutorial.pdf

and book + PowerPoint tutorial by Graham Hutton:

http://www.cs.nott.ac.uk/~gmh/preview.pdf
http://www.cs.nott.ac.uk/~gmh/mgs-appsem1.ppt
http://www.cs.nott.ac.uk/~gmh/mgs-appsem2.ppt
http://www.cs.nott.ac.uk/~gmh/mgs-appsem3.ppt
http://www.cs.nott.ac.uk/~gmh/mgs-appsem-exam.pdf
http://www.cs.nott.ac.uk/~gmh/countdown.pdf


btw, in the "another haskell tutorial" we can read:

There have been many books and tutorials written about Haskell; for a (nearly) complete
list, visit the http://haskell.org/bookshelf (Haskell Bookshelf) at the
Haskell homepage. A brief survey of the tutorials available yields:
- A Gentle Introduction to Haskell is an introduction to Haskell,
given that the reader is familiar with functional programming en large.
- Haskell Companion is a short reference of common concepts and definitions.
- Online Haskell Course is a short course (in German) for beginning
with Haskell.
- Two Dozen Short Lessons in Haskell is the draft of an excellent textbook that
emphasizes user involvement.
- Haskell Tutorial is based on a course given at the 3rd International Summer
School on Advanced Functional Programming.
- Haskell for Miranda Programmers assumes knowledge of the language Miranda.
- PLEAC-Haskell is a tutorial in the style of the Perl Cookbook.


AE>  Many thanks again - I'll make this my last post for at least a week or 
AE> two (to give others some bandwidth) -
