Haskell is on a roll: #haskell has hit 400 users; Simon Peyton Jones was invited to speak at OSCON; the first printing of Programming in Haskell has completely sold out; and we can all look forward to reading about Real World Haskell. Given the buzz Haskell has been causing in the blogosphere, I was hardly surprised when I started receiving `functional spam,' which I thought I'd share:
Hello XXX@@cs.nott.ac.uk,
R u sick of wearing teh hare shirt? Do women laff at ur tiny monads
and say your fully-nerd??? Its time to takcle yur awkward squad and
make her VERY happy!
We offer TOP quality lambda shirts delivered to you in full
confidentiality. Order now and get theorems for FREE!
www.cafepress.com/TheMonadReader
Approved by teh top doctors in the field!!
I think this can only mean that Haskell is on the verge of a
breakthrough.
I may not have received as many submissions for this issue as for the last, but I am no less pleased with result: Brent Yorgey describes a very tidy implementation of several combinatorial functions on multisets; Conrad Parker, on the other end of the spectrum, gives a mind-boggling solution to a classic problem, completely implemented in Haskell's type system! I think both articles complement one another quite nicely. I hope you enjoy reading them as much as I did.
