[Haskell-cafe] Scribd's AI challenge has Haskell support

[aditya bhargava]

Hey all,
I work at scribd.com. A few weeks ago we had released an AI game. It
allowed you to use Javascript to program a bot. I've been wanting to add
Haskell as a supported language for some time, and it's finally done! I'm
pretty excited since I think we are the first big company to do something
like this. Supporting Haskell was trivial thanks to GHC 7.4's Safe Haskell
extension. I hope more companies support Haskell in the future!

Here's the game: *http://www.scribd.com/jobs/botrace*
Here's the tutorial I wrote for Haskell: *
http://egonschiele.github.com/robot-fruit-hunt/*
Here's the Haskell API: *
https://github.com/egonSchiele/robot-fruit-hunt/blob/master/haskell/HaskellAPI.markdown
*
Here's a sandbox that allows you to test bots locally: *

Comments and feedback welcome!
