Featured Meetup

Coding and Reasoning with Purity, Strong Types, and Monads

* Tuesday, January 29, 2013
7:00 PM to 9:00 PM
* Pivotal Labs
841 Broadway, 8th Floor, New York, NY (map)
40.734360 -73.991058
* New Haskell users often point to complicated types and lack of
pervasive side-effects in functions as confusing. But these
features provide powerful tools to reason with, that can
dramatically reduce the complexity of sophisticated code. We're
starting off 2013 with two talks, one beginner and one
intermediate, that will explain this from the ground up.
Ryan Trinkle will start off the evening with an intro talk to get
beginners up to speed. Then, Doug Beardsley will talk about
purity, strong types, and monads--why you should care about them,
and how they can help you write better quality software. Drawing on
experience with real world projects, we will take a look at
practical motivations for these concepts. Then we will explore how
they were actually used in the development of the recent 0.10
release of the Heist template system.

The NY Haskell Users Group is for all programmers either interested in
or experienced with the Haskell programming language. We want to build
a community of Haskell developers in the New York area that can share
knowledge, projects, and experience, and to generally foster and
encourage strongly typed functional programming, in all languages, all
settings, and all industries. Our events will center around talks, but
we intend to have other sorts of activities, including social hours,
code workshops, and perhaps, eventually hackathons.
