[Haskell-cafe] ANN: Tutorial on information visualization and visual analytics in Haskell

[Jefferson Heard]

The tutorial has now been updated to what I think will more or less be
the final version.  There are now figures where appropriate.  The code
has been checked, and I'm sure now that the examples work.  Now that
I'm done, I'll repeat the original announcement, and all can enjoy:

This is the tutorial I'll be presenting at DEFUN 2008.  I'll be
building a site around it until then, complete with compilable code
examples, but I thought I would let everyone get a sneak peek at the
long version of the tutorial before I'm done with it.  The code is as
yet untested, and keep in mind, advanced Haskellers, that I'm
purposefully simplifying some things to be understood by the beginner
to the intermediate Haskeller.  Comments and questions are welcome and
encouraged.
