[Haskell-cafe] RE: Answers to Exercises in Craft of FP

[Christian Hofer]

Maybe I am too much rooted in the German university system, where the 
students' autonomy is held high (against all evidence). But I never 
understood, why we - who have to learn the interesting stuff completely 
on our own, because bad luck supplies us only with Java teachers 
(although other professors use Scheme, Lisp, Prolog) - are punished for 
a possible misuse of the exercises' solutions by students who would by 
cheating loose some years of their lifetime before failing in the 
exams.

Regards,
Chris
