Which should I pick?

Name: Anonymous 2009-05-12 21:43

I can only pick one for my next semester.

Functional programming using Haskell or logic programming. I've already read SICP and it pretty much covered everything that functional programming course is supposed to teach.

What Would The Sussman Do?

if you don't already know it, logical, ofcourse.
is functional programming actually used for ANYTHING in the real world?

Pick the functional programming course, but also attend the logic programming one even though you won't be graded on it.

Just in case you haven't realized, functional programming is actually used more than logic programming is.

Actually, functional programming is definitely making a come-back in the 21st century, what with the advent of multi-core processors.
In respone to your question, one word: MapReduce @ Google. Thread over.

Then just do the functional programming course.

But I already know what's being taught. The Sussman would frown upon me taking the easy way out.

My school isn't very good. I live in Eastern Europe you see, the only reason I'm still going is because I get a scholarship. Also the school is free as long I'm in the top 50%.
